    Error setting device to device

    I am trying to store a temperature at 4 am in a virtual switch.
    I am trying to do this via easy trigger set device to device

    I get this error in the log:

    EasyTrigger ERROR SetDeviceValue: Cannot find control value 12.2 for device 632

    I am also getting a similar error when trying to set a different virtual switch to a minute counter device from Jon00's uptime plugin

    This is the event:

    Post a screen shot of your virtual device's Status Graphics tab.

      I think that's what the problem is but don't know what I have to set it too...

        I would delete the 0 and 100 values and then add a new range value that covers the expected temperatures (just do something like -100 to 100), and set the number of decimals to one or two.

          what Al said, and make the range be both status and control

            Ok got that working. The next one I need to do I want to replicate this, but I want to show it days, hours and minutes as in the original device. The problem is probably getting to set it to the string rather than the value

              to copy the string you need to use a "Set Device's string" action and use the replacement variable $$DTR:(ref):

                I tried to run this as a script but got a lot of errors in the log

                Code:
                Sub Main(parm as object)
                hs.SetDeviceString(634,$$DTR:(613),True)
                End Sub

                  End Sub
                  I was referring to the "Set Device's string" event action from the EasyTrigger plugin

                      Gotta love the valuable knowledge in this forum.
                      I was just giving a trial test to this plugin and couldn't get it to work.
                      I wanted to save the current barometer value for subsequent reference. Once I made these changes, it worked beautifully! Time to register this bad boy!
                      Much thanks for your input!

                        I too am on the EasyTrigger trial. Following the info in this thread I end up with the following as seen in the screenshots. I don't think this is how it should look, but not sure.

                        At some point, I need to move VAR1 to VAR2 and read a new VAR1. I'm planning this for four days worth of data. I've only created the virtual devices for two days at this point but will need four.

                          Hope it works as well for you as it's working for me now.

                            I'm trying, but I'm having issues with the look and value. See my previous post please.
