Information

Information on the dashboard :

The widget is divided into 4 dials representing the 4 dials of your nimbus.

• The needle indicates the position of the needle on the corresponding screen of your nimbus
• The text is the text displayed on your nimbus. This text can be clicked to reach this screen :

This screen allows you to manually change the text, the needle position or both. It allows you to see when you change the value already displayed.

The actions

Actions accessible via scenario :

Several actions are accessible via scenario :

The Demo action is independent and launches the technical demo.

All the other actions work in the same way on the principle.

This is a message command which allows you to pass two parameters:

• Title : a number between 0 and 360 corresponding to the position of the needle
• Message : the message to display

The two are separable that means you can :

• Send a position by leaving the message field empty or by leaving Message
• Send a message leaving the title field blank or leaving title
• Send a position and a message by filling in both

There is one order per screen, one order all, one order Phrasing :

• Screen : allows to act on the corresponding screen
• All : lets do the same on all screens
• Phrasing : special command which will cut the message into 4 words which will be displayed on each screen (if a word exceeds 8 characters it will be cut if the sentence is more than 4 words it will be cut)

HOW CAN I PERMANENTLY SHOW INFORMATION ABOUT MY HOME AUTOMATION

If you want to continuously display information from your home automation. Create a scheduled scenario every 5 minutes (for example).

In this example, you just need to replace what is in the hook with your commands. And every 5 minutes your screens will be updated with the correct values

Faq

The system retrieves information every hour. You can click the Refresh command to refresh manually.

Make sure you have created the config file by saving your info in the general config of the plugin.
