Hi,
Try the function below (not tested):function double TimeToGetHigh() { int hour = Timestamp.Hour; // the Timestamp is a built-in property return Timestamp.Minute == 0 && (hour == 8 || hour == 12 || hour == 18 || hour == 22) ? 1 : 0; }Note that UTC hour is used.
The channel input formula:TimeToGetHigh()
Channel type is calculated.Hi,
Yes, it’s possible. Please describe the entire task, so I could suggest the better way. What do you plan to do with 0 and 1?Hi,
I suggest some optimization:1. The above script creates an array on every call. It’s better to initialize the array only once.
2. Use the TimeOfDay property instead of creating new DateTime manually, and compare time spans.
I suggest using DateTime.UtcNow.Hour instead of DateTime.Now.Hour because converting universal time to local is slow. Of cause, modern computers don’t notice it.
Hi,
DrvSms allows commands like
+12345;message
So a phone number can stored as a channel value, and then used when generating command text. It requires some formulas.
First, try to send command to the specific phone number.
Second, try saving a phone number in a string channel and implement editing of it.Alternatively, you can create a channel that can be 0 or 1 depending on the time, and use it in a multichannel trigger.
Hi,
The idea of implementing that is to cancel commands if they are sent outside of the allowed period.
A trigger should send commands to the channel. In the channel use the output formula that check time period. To reject a command, return null or double.NaN from the formula.Hello,
To be able to receive a timestamp, try converting the incoming data to a double encoded as OLE Automation date
