My forum

Hi
I'm trying to get acces on local network to telldus. Yes, we did now. It's ok, ant we can ask and answer via python socket library. But, there is a rf directory: has anyone been able to compile receive.c ?
And at this point, could someone explain:
- htc.h is the hitecc pic18 one ?
- can we use gcc ?
- Is there e configure script downloadable ?
- Is there a help link for how to use compiled sources ?

Ty

Yes

No, please read README:

The following software is required to build the firmware for TellStick Net.
* Hi-Tech C Pro for the PIC18 MCU Family, version 9.63PL3 or later.
The version 9.80 seems to be incompatible with the TCP/IP stack. Use an earlier version
until this is resolved (read more: http://developer.telldus.com/ticket/206).

Yes, read the README for instructions how to build the code

philarete wrote:Is there a help link for how to use compiled sources ?

Please read the README file and see the example script in the client/ folder.

Ty
Sorry, i'm not clear.
I compiled the sources and uploaded to telldus, i can communicate thru socket with python.
I was talkin about receive.c and all the libraries in rf folders: when i try gcc ./receive.h --> no config.h / no htc.h

Why do you compile using gcc? Please read my previous reply. The firmware MUST be compiled using the Hi-Tech C compiler.
You say you have the firmware up and runnig, so why do you try to just compile one of the files?

... because i'm a noob.
Ok.
I thought we had to compile them one by step (i read something in forums about rising sun protocol).

I do not understand if i can find a list of the commands:
1/ in yout pythonexample for rebooting "A:disconnect" ---> what is "A:" ?
2/ in your send messages examples : 4:sendh1:S32:$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$kk$$kk$$k$k$ks
If i read well i should read [4:send] is "send" command and hXXXXXXXs is the message itslef with "1:S", one character letter message and 32:xxx means a command. Right ?
3/ So, for passing the "V+" command, should i write: 4:sendh1:V1:+ ?
why if do: i get an error message please ?
4/ Last: You wrote this is an "example" for switching on Arctech switch: S$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$kk$$kk$$kk$$}+ What are for example the others commands to switch on Rising sun switches or the commands to send for reading sensors info

Sorry, but hard for me to understand.

5/ How could i revert to telldu Live! firmware plz ?

"send" is the command but the message is a dictionary with the content:
'S' = '$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$k$kk$$kk$$kk$$k'

philarete wrote:3/ So, for passing the "V+" command, should i write: 4:sendh1:V1:+ ?

TellStick Net does not support the V-command

You can use the code from telldus-core for algoritms how to encode other protocols.

Please see the function handleMessage(), only "send" and "reboot" is implemented.

ok, ty, i can see the light.
1/Except for "A:disconnect". I read your page link before writing, but what i get is "you have to pick a letter (could be A or J), it doesn't matter, it's a code activation".

2/Edit: Gotcha: " else if (strcmp(name, "disconnect") == 0) "
Pfewwww

3/ When you say "use RisingSun.cpp", you mean:
const char code_on[][7] = { I can't find a "protocolArcep.cpp" to check your translation. So, i i take the first one:
110110, it becomes: "$k$kk$k$kk" right ? So i can use: If i send this to Tellnet, should it blink or do something ?

Where do we write this?

philarete wrote:you have to pick a letter (could be A or J), it doesn't matter, it's a code activation

I cannot find this anywhere.

Sorry for being so dummy:

product:mac address:activation code:firmware


Code for activation: ABCDEFGHIJ

Is "A" a length ?

In telldus-core ArcTech is called Nexa. You can find the code here:

The length for your S-parameter doesn't seem correct. You only have 10 characters in the argument but send 0x10 (16). TellStick Net will not be able to parse the message.

No, this is the activation code written on the label of the device. The one above is just an example. Your device will report something different.

Ok, ty. So what is "A:disconnect". Is (0x10) -> 16 in hex so "A" ?

From the documentation:

Strings are length-prefixed base sixteen (upper case) followed by a colon and the string. For example 6:FooBar corresponds to 'FooBar'.

The length of the string "disconnect" is 10 characters. 10 in hex is 0xA.

ok, that's clear.
