TellstickNet - Support for control via WebUI ?

[omicronCZ]

Is there any way or chance to control Tellstick Net of another system in the form of orders to TellstickNet WebUI:
http://TellstickNet.IP/devcode/on-off-dimm/ etc?

I have been using a different system for home automation (HomeMatic), which in this way can control external devices with its own WebUI...

I know it's not now, but plans a developer to support or extension?
It would have helped sales, if it were possible TellstickNet externally controlled as follows ...

[omicronCZ]

After a year of no new information?
It really is not possible to implement this support for TellstickNet control via URL commands?
I need to integrate TellstickNET into my HomeMatic home automation ...
Thank you.

Im not a developer, but they have released the firmware, so you can build your own custom firmware.

if yoi need to implement the tellstick right now in your web gui, then i would use the api from telldus live. yes it will use the internet, but i think its the easiest way right now..

Instead me a description of the URL commands for TellstickNET, as http://local_ip_adress_of_TellstickNET/appliance/On-Off etc...

Iyts not as easy as that, because then everyone could control your items...But again im not a developer, so i dont know the details.. you have to read about the api..

Well, it is doable. E.g. user Henkepenka has written an XBMC plugin (http://www.telldus.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2364) which can control your Tellstick devices. If you look into the code, the control happens with url calls like:

googleandroid.se/xbmc/tellstick/lightEvent.php?un[your_unique_systemid]&device_id=[device id]&action=[1 = on, 2 = off, dim]
e.g. googleandroid.se/xbmc/tellstick/lightEvent.php?un=GfT8bg&device_id=178990&action=2 (all parameters are made up, sorry if this controls someone's lights )

And this has nothing to do with XBMC, as simplest you just type the url to a web browser and vóila. Your device id's you can get e.g. from http://api.telldus.com/explore/devices/list

Not sure how secure this is though, better not share the systemid anywhere at least...

Thank you very much.
This syntax looks good, just do not know yet:
- Where to find it "your_unique_systemid", it probably will not "Code for activation", which is written directly on the label of TellstickNET device?
- For DIMM that is functional as a standard remote control?
This is the first turn 1 is ON, next "1" is start another fade cycle, the next "1" is stop DIMM and "2" switch them off?

Hi,

I suggest referring to the XBMC discussion where there is more info (link on my previous reply). Once you create a username to the service at googleandoid.se, you'll get the system id from there. The Dim function uses percentages I think, so something like Dim50, Dim20 etc.

It is a bit hidden in their website, but here it is: http://api.telldus.com/

Go to Your Keys from the menu.

Unfortunately I do not know where and how to get the user name service googleandoid.se, the whole thing is only in Swedish ( ), anywhere on the page googleandoid.se not nothing about XMBC.
Can you please to guide exactly where I register, sign in and I get the code? Thank you so much.

Unfortunately, I am afraid that this is another code ...

Hmm, there was an English discussion as well, maybe I pointed to the Swedish one by accident. In any case, you should be able to connect Tellstick Net here:
http://www.googleandroid.se/xbmc/tellstick/index.php

Oh, and here's the English discussion: http://www.telldus.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=2365

I am trying to do the same thing.
But i am trying to do it thourgh an app for android called tasker.

You can controll your devices by url quite simple.
If you use Fiddler it will see what urls you press. Login to your device and press an on or off button Fiddler will save the url and you can use that to turn stuff on or off.
Example: live.telldus.com/device/switch?mode=on&id=[device id goes here without brackets]
This will only work if your logged in.

And that is the only part i dont know how to do from a client it is easy in an brwoser you can use your google acount and the link:
https://login.telldus.com/user/openid?identity=google

But this wont work with a http get.

Thanks, I need to send URL links for On/Off/Dimm light on my "TellStickNET":

- URL link needs to insert into some scripts in my "Domotica" system (home automation)
- some Android systems with installed applications "TellStickNET" I have
- I do not know where he finds it necessary "ID"
- I do not know what is "Fiddler" ...

Thank you for your understanding and possible assistance
