My forum

Hi!

I have a question regarding TelldusCenter, my TellStick (Batch 8 ) and TelldusNETWrapper telldus-core API on my Win7 x64 PC.

The thing is that I want to avoid registering my wireless NEXA receivers with TelldusCenter and bind device data like, f ex:

• [house]
  [model]
  [protocol]

to ONE single computer's Win7-register only. Reason? -I want my own database for all the device data! (It would give me a more portable solution that suits my purposes better since I'm trying to experiment with my own developed C#-home-automation-software.)

Facts:
This is my (NOT TelldusCenter in Win-register registered) device:

• [house] = 23305
  [model] = "selflearning-switch:nexa"
  [protocol] = "arctec"

My question:
Is it possible to send on/off to my wireless NEXA receiver via my TellStick?

Can I use the C#-wrapper method
(telldus-core: , found on http://developer.telldus.se/doxygen/gro ... 5c9f1aa6a7) somehow?

Yes, it is possible. You have to encode all the protocol data yourself though. You have to read the source code for the protocol for methods of encoding.

Thank's for your quick reply!

I'm absolutely not asking you to solve my entire problem but I wonder if you can help me on track with my NEXA receiver device with a simple example?

If I have this wrapper C# method, What should I put in the parameters in order to send "On" to the receiver (via my Tellstick)?

• [house] = 23305
  [unit] = 1
  [model] = "selflearning-switch:nexa"
  [protocol] = "arctec"

First you need to understand how TellStick communicates:

The documentation for tdSendRawCommand() explains the parameters.

Parameters:
command The command for TellStick in its native format.
reserved Reserved for future use.
