My forum

Dear all,

whenever I use the Live API and use "device/info" on a switch I get the following result:
It shows "0" for both parameters no matter if the device is currently on or off (and the Telldus Live! website shows correctly whether the device is on or not).

What am I doing wrong? Is there anything I have to add to "supportedMethods"?



Best Regards

I'm having this issue aswell which makes it awfully hard to read if a IR sensor is on or off. Is it supposed to be working like this?

Put the supportedMethod = 3 to enable ON/OFF and state return.

Thanks, Richard, now it's working.

But where should I have looked for a documentation on supportedMethod? I did not find any information on what "3" means.

Hi Robert,
See there in code sample of tdtool : http://developer.telldus.se/attachment/ ... sensors.py
Use http://api.telldus.com/explore/index# to debug.

3 is TURNON ored TURNOFF

TELLSTICK_TURNON = 1
TELLSTICK_TURNOFF = 2
TELLSTICK_BELL = 4
TELLSTICK_DIM = 16
TELLSTICK_UP = 128
TELLSTICK_DOWN = 256

Hi,

I have a follow-up question for this. When I retrieve device info from a PHP script, I get an empty response for "statevalues":
...
</name>
<state>
1
</state>
<statevalue />
<statevalues state="2048" value="" />
<methods>
2050
</methods>
<type>
device
</type>
<client>
...
using "$response = $consumer->sendRequest(constant('REQUEST_URI').'/device/info', $params, 'GET');"
with params "id" and "supportedMethods" like described.

However, when I use Telldus API explorer for the same device, I get this:
...
"statevalue": null,
"statevalues": [
{
"state": "2048",
"value": {
"setpoint": {
"heat": "22.0",
"eco-heat": "10.0"
},
"mode": "eco-heat"
}
}
],
"methods": "0",
"type": "device",
...


Why is the response different? Am I missing any params? Could there be some access rights?
