hi,
First off there looks like a bug in fp 1.5 in that when you create a new
item in a script you don't get the option of selecting another device,
only 'use calling device'. If you go back and edit the item you should
find it all filled in. Also as one script can call another script then
if you made two scripts. On that contains the logic and the timers to
operate the sprinklers and the second one that is the one triggered in
the firstplace and that simply contains the contitional item of if
raininlast24 =off then run script XYZ. That way you wouldn't need to add
conditional statements to each item of the script.
You delay from last item suggestion sounds very sensible, i'll get it
put it.

hi,<br>
First off there looks like a bug in fp 1.5 in that when you create a
new item in a script you don't get the option of selecting another
device, only 'use calling device'. If you go back and edit the
item
you should find it all filled in. Also as one script can call another
script then if you made two scripts. On that contains the logic and the
timers to operate the sprinklers and the second one that is the one
triggered in the firstplace and that simply contains the contitional
item of if raininlast24 =off then run script XYZ. That way you wouldn't
need to add conditional statements to each item of the script.<br>
<br>
You delay from last item suggestion sounds very sensible, i'll get it
put it.<br>

I see there is a check device for each line, but the dropdown only
has<br>
"Calling device" in the dropdown, and I would like to be able to
check<br>
the device for the entire script or timer.<br>
<br>
Also, as for the delay, could you put in an option to choose if
you<br>
want the delays to be from the start of the script or from the<br>
previous line (Default to from start of script for backwards<br>

have to adjust each line following it.<br>
