Pollen count Tile that would show Pollen Count including decimals

Jon Stolz 4 years ago updated 4 years ago 2

I am trying to convert the Pollen Count number from a Pollen count Device Handler to a Lux number through use of Webcore. The reason for this is I want to have my Actiontiles have a tile that displays the Pollen count in a Decimals format, not just a whole number. Actiontiles does not have a Pollen Count capability, but it does have illuminance.

I already have converted the Pollen Count index measurement to a temperature capability, and that is displayed on my Dashboard as a whole number with the degrees symbol BUT that only gives me a whole number, no decimals.

Any way to convert the Pollen Count to any kind of Virtual Device which does display decimals? Either through webcore or some other means?

Best Capability for a number

bscuderi 7 years ago updated by Jon Stolz 4 years ago 7

I have a custom device handler for my device that uses the following custom attribute..

 

attribute "RPM", "number"


This just displays as a tile in my device handler that shows the current RPM value of my pool pump for example 3,450 RPM.

I would like to get this into action tiles on my display in a way that best presents that information. My question is what device capability, that action tiles supports, should I change this to in order to best present my information? I'm not dead set on using my custom attribute and do not mind if it's something strange or nonsensical as I just want it to display right on action tiles. I tried power use and temperature and some others but then it displays on a tile that says watts or degrees F which looks funny.

thanks for your help bud I found changing the device to device.carbonDioxide was the golden ticket for displaying the number value as I had hoped!

Panel Flicker

Bryan Mack 5 years ago updated by Alex (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 5 years ago 2

Admittedly, this is unlikely to be an issue with AT itself. My tablet is actually a webpage. On this webpage I use iframes. 2 of the iframes (top-left and middle) are actiontiles panels. The upper-right is my google calendar, and the bottom is a sports ticket. I don't use screen saver. I get a random flicker across the page constantly. It's hard to explain, so here is a link of a video: 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LtHrvkdJZGQ

Any ideas? I can't get the HTML to post, but it's as basic as can be.

ActionTiles not Loggin In

Ratman482 5 years ago updated 5 years ago 4

I have been using Fire Tablet with for my home automation with ActionTile and the Fully Kiosk Browser for some time.  Although I have had many problems in the past (freezes about 1 time per month) they were working regularly for some time.  Recently, I started having the problem every day of the tablet not being logged into ActionTiles and just 'parked' at the start URL (ActionTiles).  This is seen in the morning after the tablet goes into power save mode after the time I have setup.  Before, this would work as expect, turning back on at the set time (6AM) with the screensaver.  When motion detected, it would show the Live Panel in ActionTiles.  Now, it just shows the ActionTiles Login and you must press 'Login' and then it will go to the Panel screen where you can select the Live Panel.  Is there a reason for this - is this something anyone else is experiencing?  Any ideas on how to fix?  Thanks.

Came across another issue. When I created a tile for my location based on my cellphone, the tile icon became a question mark instead of the assigned icon.

Sonoff Wall Light Switches

RodRamos 5 years ago updated by Alex (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 5 years ago 2

Hello. Having a hard time integrating my sonoff 3 gang wall switches I have linked below to AT. I dont need to control them, I just need the tile to show when status of the lights (on/off) so I can use Alexa to turn them off. I just need notifications, not control just to make things easier. I tried IFTTT, but I'm currently struggling.

Please help.

Control TV other than on/off?

captaindomon 5 years ago updated 5 years ago 3

I apologize for the newbie question, but I am trying to set up my Samsung Q8F tv on ActionTiles, and all that I can seem to do is turn it on and off? Is there any way to add a mute tile? Or volume up/down, media select etc? Anything other than on/off?

“Connecting” message appears weekly

Gerry Chiariello 5 years ago updated 5 years ago 2

I have 4 wall mounted Kindle Fire 8s running ActionTiles with FullyKiosk browser and DAK Board sleep screen.  In the past month, one or two of the panels will show “connecting” while the others are fine. I have had this setup for a year with few issues.  This “connecting” screen issue however is recurring on a weekly basis.  I see there was a prior thread on this that is now closed, but I am curious if there is any solution other than returning to home screen and logging back in.  Any input would be appreciated.

Add Tesla Solar Info to ActionTiles

klooney 5 years ago 0

I found a way to view my current and historical production of my Tesla solar panels. When I add the link into AT as media it doesn't display correctly. Does anybody have an idea on how I can add a still image of my current production that updates every hour or so...similar to a weather tile?

Actiontiles Smart Kiosk - help we with electrical connections [photos]

Daniel Soltys 5 years ago 0

So I'm in the final stages of my Fire HD 8" Kiosk which will display

actiontiles for SmartThings and my outside cameras. Can someone tell me

which wires in the box I would connect to?

Switch on left goes up to bathroom fan. On right goes to ceiling light

fixture. There's another GFCI plug over the the left and an power outlet

below the Tablet location near the floor.

Based on the instructions, which nut should I tap into?

SmartThings Weather Tile Offline

John Intorcio 6 years ago updated by Terry (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 6 years ago 1

I've been using a SmartThings Weather Tile device on my panels for some time. It's a nice quick way to see current conditions. The last few days, however, it seems to have been "offline"? No updates? Has anyone else seen this? Has anyone fixed it?

Replacement of wall intercom with backspash tile. Will anything fit?

Mn_steve 6 years ago updated 6 years ago 1

I have one of those 80s style intercoms that the previous owner thought it was great to include in a kitchen remodel from 10 years ago, cutting the hole in the backsplash tile. Without redoing the tile in the whole kitchen, is there a reasonably priced tablet, wall mount that will fit over a 8'x15" hole?
