• A W&T rule.box Hub

Need rule.box – ask for test version!

What is explained:

1. Flow Setup

2. More nodes for similar purposes

1. Set up the flow

• Open Manage Palette in the Node-RED Editor menu .
• Click install , search for “timerswitch” and install the package “node-red-contrib-timerswitch”.
• Drag the newly installed node onto your desktop and open the settings with a double click.

• Here you can now set various on and off times for precise control throughout the day.
• Connect the output of the node to a “Digital OUT” node, for example, which means that you can use the rule.box digital with two inputs and two outputs as a freely configurable timer.
• Then confirm your flow with deploy.

2. Additional knots for similar purposes

• If you have higher demands on a timer, additional nodes are available in Node-RED. You can find this by searching for “scheduler” in the installation menu, for example.
• The “Light Scheduler” node gives you the option of configuring different times for the individual days of the week separately using a calendar sheet.

With the “Simple Weekly Scheduler” node, you have the option of automatically downloading and setting pre-defined schedules in JSON format from a server.
