Thank to this forum I was able to install and create all macros to automatically water the lawn, flowers and garden with all stop, timed start etc... great

Now I would like to create a macro to get valves status...

I tried and read and reread the 'manual'.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

The Irrigation Controller Command Set (SimpleHomeNet Downloads section) describes the cmd1 0x44 cmd2 0x02 combination to “Get Valve Status”.

This formula will return the current valve status as a value from 0 to 8. A value of 0 means off with 1 thru 8 (0 - 7) representing the current valve that is on.

Code:
ph_setvar_a(1,1,ph_insteonwithret("EZRAIN ID",68,2)) + if(ph_and(ph_getvar_n(1,1),128) = 128,ph_and(ph_getvar_n(1,1),7) + 1,0)


Be sure and replace the "EZRAN ID" with the ID of your EZRAIN device.

HTH,

Dave.
