MMM-Loxone

[idoodler]

@meininger Ok, there may be some unexpected reconnects due to some changes in the authentication behavior on the Loxone side. But you shouldn’t see an issues because the Module will automatically reconnect to the Miniserver. I will update the module as soon as I can.

Thanks for keeping me up-to-date 👍

[Meininger]

@idoodler keeping up to Date is the only way to make Things better… 😉

@idoodler at the Moment it is an new error, the mirror dosn´t start. Its an error at boot “detect-rpi” module can not load. So i deactivate the complete Loxone Module in Mirror config file, than start´s the mirror like before, but without the cool Loxone feature. :-(

Hello everyone,

I also have some trouble configuring the Loxone module. The MM itself and the calender, traffic, weather an News modules are running without any problem.

BUT: The Loxone modules does not want to run at all. Attached you’ll find the required parts of my config.

Maybe some of you can find the wrong passage.

Thanks in advance

@DO86 I think “position” is wrong.
See my config:

              {
                        module: "MMM-Loxone",
                        position: "bottom_left", 
                        config: {
                                host: "Loxone IP",
                                user: "Username",
                                pwd: "Password",
                                presence: "true", //if you want to use the light controller V2 to toggle the display
                                roomUuid: "0ea3ebd1-00eb-04ef-ffff390cde3b9b45", //Room ID where MM is located
                                showInfoNotifications: "true",
                                showErrorNotifications: "true",
                                showSystemNotifications: "true",
                                observingUuids:[
                                                "103d9aaf-0037-597e-ffff390cde3b9b45",//Variable you want to observe
                                                ]
                                    }
                },

@idoodler : Today i updated my RPI and i add 2 Modules “MMM-RPI-LED” and “MMM-Moon-Phase” (Just a side info, maybe this is the reason for my issue).

“MMM-Loxone” was working perfect for a long time. Now i am having issues with the Monitor coming alive again.

Test-Scenario:
Light in the Room is ON; in the config I changed Presence: “false” -->MM Starts and works
now i am switching presence: “true”; light is still on -->MM Starts and works
now i am switching off the light --> MM gets dark
now I am switching on the light -->MM stays dark

in the PM2 LOG i can see the status of the light controller changing.

I think there was something changed in the OS. Does anyone experience a similar behaviour?

Thank you.

[idoodler]

@bobbythemoh Hi, may you please post the MagicMirrors log via pm2 log mm. Did you update your Raspberry pi?

[bobbythemoh]

Hi,

I did sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get upgrade.
Please find the log file. As you can see, changing the light status works.

@bobbythemoh I am currently unable to test it on a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian, because I am working on another project. Please try to execute /opt/vc/bin/tvservice -o, this will turn off the HTMI port, if this won’t work there may be an issue with the last update of Rasbian.

I am currently anyway working on another method to toggle the HDMI port on different operating systems, so I may resolve this anyway.

[bobbythemoh]

@idoodler Hey, i tried the following things:
in config.js I set presence “false”; restart but after the MM is loaded, screen is getting dark. The only was to get a monitor signal is to restart with light in the room switched on although presence is “false”.

If the display was dark it does not come back any more:
I tried tvservice -o: It switches off HDMI, i can see the monitor going to sleep (flashing Power LED)
I tried tvservice -p: i can see the monitor coming alive but only with a black screen (constant Power LED).

If HDMI is on (-p) by connecting to the MM via VNC i can press STRG+Q to close MM; i can see the deskop on VNC but no change on the real Monitor.

So to summarize: if tvservice -o was set, the monitor signal does not come back any more (besides restart with light in the room)

[idoodler]

@bobbythemoh I just double checked the code, if you disable the presence property there is no way to toggle the display by the Loxone Module. Do you see the log message Got lightMood change to: All off(778) after you disable the presence property.

The Monitor is directly toggled after the log command.

[bobbythemoh]

@idoodler Hey,

In the config.js it says:

    {
                        module: "MMM-Loxone",
                        position: "bottom_left", 
                        config: {
                                host: "IP",
                                user: "User",
                                pwd: "PW",
                                presence: "false",
                                roomUuid: "0ea3ebd1-00eb-04ef-ffff390cde3b9b45",
                                showInfoNotifications: "true",
                                showErrorNotifications: "true",
                                showSystemNotifications: "true",
                                observingUuids:[
                                                "103d9aaf-0037-597e-ffff390cde3b9b45",//Bad Luftfeuchte
                                                "104c401f-03a0-9afc-ffff390cde3b9b45",//WarmwasserTemp
                                                ]
                        }
},
 

I switched on the monitor with light on, picture was there, i toggled the light to off, MM image is gone and does not come back. To your question, here is the log file, i can see the “got ligtmode”.

[idoodler]

@bobbythemoh Oh, now everything makes sense. You have errors in your config.js.

Boolean values must not be strings. Replace "true" and "false" with true and false. in Javascript "false" is equal to true, so you basically have presence enabled :winking_face:

[bobbythemoh]

Hey, uncommenting the Room UUID gives with presence “false”:

Now i can do whatever i want with the light, the video is ok.

[idoodler]

@bobbythemoh Yes, it looks like there is an issue with tvservice with one of the last Raspbian updates. I am looking into fixing this and also support more operating systems.

[bobbythemoh]

@idoodler OMG. thats what happens when an mechanical engineer works with code… sorry… :D i guess that was the reason why it takes long to start the MM, at least now its faster.

OK the presence problem is fixed, but the Display problem remains…

[bobbythemoh]

@idoodler thanks for the help als always, looking forward for the module working again, my wife already complained that she is missing it now that it is not there (first she complained that it is there) :D

[idoodler]

@bobbythemoh Thanks for informing me about that issue. I am currently working on something else, so I had to ditch my current installation.

Schönen Abend noch;)

[idoodler]

@bobbythemoh Hi, I have good news for you, I just pushed a fix. Please update MMM-Loxone for it to work again. I also made it a bit faster, I hope your wife will be happy again:smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes:

Btw. This issue semes to be related to one of the latest Raspbian updates, I assume its because the new Raspberry Pi has two HDMI outputs, so there may be some changes to the HDMI related code…

[bobbythemoh]

@idoodler Hey, i just updated. works perfectly again. Thanks a lot.
