Re: Telldus_core: sending arctech protocol with group != 0

This needs to be answered. The rawdeviceevent callback for the "group"-button on the Nexa remote control I sometimes use sends the same house and unit codes as device number 1 (of 4) but with group:1. For the tellstick to be a complete product I of course need to emulate this, but I cannot...

Re: Send Extended --raw

Just wanted to lend a voice to this issue. I cannot fathom why I need the tellstick.conf file when.. - ..the rawdeviceevent manages to give me decoded data about devices when they aren't registred. - ..there is (according to documentation) a couple of ways to send raw commands to unconfigured device...

Dimmer, distinct on/off?

Ok, quick question to assuage my curiosity.. I have a Nexa dimmer and a Tellstick. I can control it just fine, but what I want to know is why ON/OFF doesn't switch the light on/off, but rather dims it to 0 or 100% respectively. Is this a limitation in the way the dimmer itself is programmed, meaning...

Re: Update to latest duo firmware fails

Thanks for the reminder - I now found the reply in the spam filter... They say batch 13062 has a programming error that causes the upgrade to fail. It can be fixed with a special program from Telldus so I suggest you submit a support ticket. Thanks for confirming this. Just got my Tellstick Duo tod...

Re: Update to latest duo firmware fails

This is what I got from Telldus - I take the liberty to post it here: 1) Du behöver verktyget MProg: http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Utilities/MProg3.5.zip 2) Se till att TelldusService är avstängt och kör sedan MProg 3) Tryck "Tools->Read and parse" 4) Under "I/O Controls" sätt...

Re: Send Raw Command problem

Has any of you had any progress on this? I've translated the ProtocolNexa::getStringSelflearning to Javascript which produces the same output as the above Python code. It doesn't trigger any change in the Nexa device it should control, nor can my Nexa devices learn codes sent using the raw command. ...

Re: Dimmer, distinct on/off?

This is a feature usually called "soft start/stop" and it extends the lifetime of your light bulbs, why do you not like it? It's a matter of principle I guess. I want the device to turn off when I tell it to turn off, not "dim to zero percent". After all, what is the point of im...

Re: Delivery of Tellstick Duo

The best modules to my experience are the ones from Aurel (check out SOS Electronics, search for 'Aurel' and you get a lot of stuff) http://www.soselectronic.com/?str=12&searchstring=433&p=AUREL Check the things I built earlier using those modules http://wiki.nethome.nu/doku.php/homehw Best...

Re: Send Raw Command problem

Hi, I have been trying to investigate this. Firstly I see that you specify only three repeats of the command. Any specific reason for this? When I generate a code for 15402826/3 I get this data: 7F FF 18 01 84 9A 8A 88 A8 A8 AA 88 AA 88 A8 AA 8A 8A 8A 8A 88 A8 A8 AA 88 AA 8A 88 AA 88 AA 8A 88 AA 8A...

Re: Send Raw Command problem

Just in case anyone is still paying attention to this thread... I've spent some time over the weekend getting the old wasps nest to compile, and it seems like tdtool reads binary data from files or STDIN into a char array. Which is signed. Meaning any byte where the most-significant-bit is set is tu...

Re: Status of the Tellstick

The source code has been available for a long time - or am I just confused? http://developer.telldus.com/browser It has, but since when did it become our responsibility to help keep a product that's still being sold in working order? It's been 2 years (and 3 days) since telldus-core was last update...

A quick update, just in case anyone happens to read this: The (typecasting) problem with sending raw commands has been known for 4 1/2 years.

Tellstick Duo and php

Hello I have a few (hopefully) quick questions about interfacing with the telldus API using php. I know dll-files can be loaded into php (as COM-objects) on Windows, but I will be running homebrew software on a Raspberry Pi. This means Linux and as far as I know, there is no way to load so-files int...
