Users / Respond to events (howto?)
« on: April 15, 2012, 05:05:39 pm »
Hey,
It's been a while since i tried to configure my linuxmce more in detail.
I can control all lights with my server. So this part is covered (output relays).
Next step is my lightbuttons in house. But for this, i don't know how i can see if linuxmce is picking up the signal from the button. I'm playing around with 'respond to events', but i've got the feeling that this isn't working as it should be. Do you need to do something special for the events? Is there anything where i need to pay attention to?
I've tried following 4 scenario's:
Scenario 1:
Event: A sensor is tripped
What device: Button 0/0/35
What time of day: DAY
Trigger: Tripped = 1
Command: lighting wizard: Light 0/2/15 ON
Scenario 2:
Event: Someone rings the doorbell
What device: Button 0/0/35
Command: lighting wizard: Light 0/2/15 ON
Scenario 3: Test Phone (ip phones are working perfectly with the system)
Event: there's an incoming call
Which phone: PhoneA
What time of day: DAY
Command: lighting wizard: Light 0/2/15 ON
Scenario 4: Test DeviceOn
Event: A device is turned on
What device: Light 0/2/15
Event ON/OFF = 1
Command: lighting wizard: light 0/2/16 & 0/2/17 ON
ps with a command line, i can activate 0/2/15 in the correct way. So my interconnection between the server and my domotica (eib) is working...
