Remote command compliance flow

This is a flow I wrote that gives you buttons and "LED's" to control a couple of devices to toggle between two states/conditions and to get a visual display of what is going on.

You may have to cycle the buttons through each state to get the variables set - yes, I know. Slack of me. Sorry in hindsight.

But buttons are usually GREEN when all is good. Beside them are TWO LEDs. The first one (closest to the buttons) indicates what you want the state to be, and the second one indicates what state it IS. This is because sometimes things don't "just happen" there and then. It may take time for the state to change.

While the state and what IS are different, the buttons (of the device) are turned RED to indicate a miss-match.

After 2 seconds - in this example - the actual state will match what you want and the buttons will return to being GREEN.

There is a lot of "debug" code in the two "Set variables" NODES, the "Check Same" NODE.

the only other big editing which may be needed is in the SWITCH nodes if you want to change the messages being used/sent for your functions.

yes, I know.  Slack of me.   Sorry in hindsight.\n\nBut buttons are usually GREEN when all is good.\nBeside them are TWO LEDs.  The first one (closest to the buttons) indicates what you want the state\nto be, and the second one indicates what state it IS.\nThis is because sometimes things don't \"just happen\" there and then.  It may take time for the\nstate to change.\n\nWhile the state and what IS are different, the buttons (of the device) are turned RED to indicate\na miss-match.\n\nAfter 2 seconds - in this example - the actual state will match what you want and the buttons will\nreturn to being GREEN.\n\nThere is a lot of \"debug\" code in the two \"Set variables\" NODES, the \"Check Same\" NODE.\n\nthe only other big editing which may be needed is in the SWITCH nodes if you want to change the\nmessages being used/sent for your functions.\n\n","x":1190,"y":60,"wires":[]},{"id":"40989d90.ab76dc","type":"ui_group","z":"","name":"Option 1","tab":"771329b.27a8c58","order":1,"disp":true,"width":"5","collapse":false},{"id":"696ffa17.2c9564","type":"ui_group","z":"","name":"Option 2","tab":"771329b.27a8c58","order":2,"disp":true,"width":"5","collapse":false},{"id":"7fc03edd.ff1498","type":"mqtt-broker","z":"","broker":"192.168.0.99","port":"1883","clientid":"","usetls":false,"compatmode":false,"keepalive":"20","cleansession":true,"willTopic":"EOM","willQos":"2","willRetain":"true","willPayload":"'Tele Pi telemetry failure'","birthTopic":"SOM","birthQos":"2","birthPayload":""},{"id":"6ccf853d.6f8004","type":"mqtt-broker","z":"","name":"192.168.0.99:1883","broker":"TimePi","port":"1883","clientid":"","usetls":false,"compatmode":true,"keepalive":"60","cleansession":true,"willTopic":"","willQos":"0","willPayload":"","birthTopic":"","birthQos":"0","birthPayload":""},{"id":"771329b.27a8c58","type":"ui_tab","z":"","name":"Switcher","icon":"dashboard","order":13}]
