This should be close to what you want:
Code:
var garageDoorCheckTimer;
function onZoneNotReady(zone) {
if(zone.name == "Garage Door") {
garageDoorCheckTimer = setTimeout(function () {
helper.sendNotification(controller, zone.bestDescription + " was left open for 1 hour!");
// optionally you can reassign garageDoorCheckTimer to a new timeout here to remind again
}, 60*60*1000);
}
}
function onZoneSecure(zone) {
if(zone.name == "Garage Door") {
garageDoorCheckTimer.clearTimeout();
}
}lupinglade

The 60*60*1000 is 60 minutes X 60 seconds X 1000 microseconds
So for two hours you can do 2*60*60*1000. 30 minutes would be 30*60*1000.
Make sure you have var garageDoorCheckTimer; at the top of the script. Also check that the quotes are regular double quotes. Sometimes copy and pasting copies them as fancy directional quotes.

garageDoorCheckTimer.clearTimeout();
}
}
That's what i have. (i am using the motion sensor for testing). The error is on line 12.

I'm not getting any error when I paste that in. Make sure you click Run Script. Do you have some other code perhaps along with this code that is throwing things off?
That's the only code I have in there. And I hit run script and there is no error. The error pops up when the zone becomes not ready I beleive.
Note, the functions actually work and I do get the notifications. But when I look at the Mac, there are many of these error notifications on the screen that I then need to close.

this is the error i get when the door is closed, even if it is within the timeout period:
[sharedmedia=gallery:images:757]
THis is the code I have. There is nothing else:
[sharedmedia=gallery:images:759]
Since the error occurs when the door is closed, the timeout timer is not resetting. So I still get the notifications even if the door is shut in time.

Try changing the clearTimeout part to:
Its possible that error occurs because the door goes secure before ever going not ready.
Code:
if(garageDoorCheckTimer != undefined) garageDoorCheckTimer.clearTimeout();i have tried leaving the door open for various lengths, both shorter and longer than the timeout period. But every time i close the door, the error pops up. And i get the notification no matter what. In fact if I open/close the the door 5 times in a minute, I will then get 5 notifications.

try replacing the content of the onZoneSecure function with just:
It should alert with the name of the zone, does that work?
Code:
alert(zone.name);Similar threads
