Boolean Status Wiser2

Hi Guys,
having read the forums, garage door status has been covered before however i'm unable to find the solution to my problem regarding the Wiser2.
I have installed a reed switch on my garage door to indicate closed and wired this back to a 4 input bus coupler.

Through PICED i wanted to simply indicate the door position, door fully down would be closed and anything else would indicate open.
I am able to indicate 0% when door is down and then 100% when door moves away from reed switch using the lighting status widget, what i would prefer is a simple open or closed text to display on the Wiser2 app.

I have tried the 2 state enable widget and the system IO Boolean, however these are both buttons which i don't want to be able to change state from the WISER2 app.

I started heading down the track of using either 2 state enable or IO Boolean widget with some logic to write status back to original state if the change originated from the Wiser2
(and allowing the change if it originated from the bus coupler), but i thought there must be an easier way to read a boolean state on the Wiser2 app.

Any help would be appreciated, i am possibly missing something obvious here! as it's reasonably straight forward to indicate temperature via the app.
Cheers

 

Thanks NickD for pushing me in the right direction!
I guess the logic thing daunted me! I wrote the below code and all seems sweet!
Please let me know if you see any improvements in my code, I included the 1 second delay as i think the scan of the wiser is 200ms. I could possibly increase this a little if needed. I assume the wiser wouldn't be too stressed executing this code every second.
Think i need to include an initialisation statement as it reads 'null' after a project transfer.

Thanks again.


{Garage Door Status}

once (GetLightingState("Garage Door Status") = ON) then
begin
SetStringSystemIO("Garage Door Status", 'Open');
end;

once (GetLightingState("Garage Door Status") = OFF) then
begin
SetStringSystemIO("Garage Door Status", 'Closed');
end;

delay("00:00:01");

 

Yes ofcourse!

You are correct, the bus coupler does have the option to broadcast its state on powerup (which i have selected), which i think will be sufficient, the 'Null' was being displayed after a project transfer.

Nice trick!


Thanks for your help Nick, much appreciated.

I've also for a bit of fun, have now changed the eDLT display background colour so at least if i'm sitting on the couch i will know if i've left the garage door open!
Cheers
