message cleanup

[Federico83-hassio]

hello everyone, I am wondering if it is possible every some time to perform a message cleanup, I made a flow with node red but even if the device is in off state and the entity is below the set threshold, it keeps showing the last state.

example my PV system goes off if the production is below 100w, i would like this flow to be skipped if the threshold is below 100w. otherwise it keeps showing the last status example 101w

i hope i have explained myself well.

Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

this is the flow

end this the flow code

Hey,
do I understand correctly, you no longer want to display the PV system display in the playlist in a certain situation?
E.g. PW power below a certain value.
If this is the case, you can set the value msg.show = false for your flow. This means that the flow is no longer displayed in the playlist.
This can be seen very clearly in the example Calculate X-Mas in NodeRed for Pixelit. Here again as a flow:

Maybe this will help you. :-)

I think I found the solution I will leave you the code if you want to try it, by counting the lights on if less than two it shows no message otherwise it counts the lights on.

this is the code:

var lux = msg.payload
if (lux > 2)
{
msg.bmp = '327';
msg.payload = light on ${msg.data.state};
node.status({ fill: "green", shape: "ring", text: "lux" });
}
else if (lux <= 2)
{
msg.show = false;
}
return msg;
