Questions about Telldus Live

Post by olejon »

Hi. I have just bought TellStick Net and it works great.

I have a few questions:

1) When you add a schedule, is the retry interval in seconds or minutes?
2) Can you please add an easy way to disable schedules? For example if I have a lot of schedules customized to me actually being in me apartment, and then I go on vacation... Then I have to change all the schedules, but it would be easier to have a checkbox or something that says "disable".
3) Can you please add a "remember me" checkbox at login, so I don't have to type username and password each time? Yes, my browser can remember them, but it is stll annoying. A workaround for me has been to fake an iPhone/Android user agent, because when logging in to the mobile version of Telldus Live I can choose to "remember me".
4) When logging in to the mobile version from a mobile phone, there is a way to get to the full desktop version. Can you please add a link to get back to the mobile version? I don't want to delete all my cookies (on Android I can not delete individual cookies).

Thank you for your great products!

1) Retry interval is only for failed jobs. If your TellStick Net is offline at the scheduled moment. It is in minutes.

2) On our TODO

3) We used to have this but we had some problems with logout. There was no way to log out. Until we have a working solution I am afraid we won't add the checkbox again.

4) God idea!

Thank you for your quick answer.

1) Ok, good to know. Since my equipment doesn't _always_ react to my schedules, I just add two schedules doing the same thing (for example turn off oven 1 at 23:00 AND 23:05) just to make sure it actually will turn off.

2) Great.

3) Hmm, ok. I can see now that I can't log out after faking a mobile version. I've done some web programming myself, and find it hard to understand why this should be difficult. But for me it doesn't matter that much. I just fake the mobile version and choose to remember. I have no need to log out :-)

4) Yeah :-) Too many websites offer a way from mobile version to desktop version, but not the other way around (without deleting cookies). Of course only offer that possibility if the device is actually mobile.
