FGBS-001 Support

[BrendanL]

Hi guys

I'm new here and keen on staying/contributing etc. I've been playing around with HG just in software for the last couple of weeks to try and simulate what I want to achieve. Initially a gate sensor with some sort of monitoring reminder past the point of the initial event.

I received my first bits of hardware this morning: a Gen5 Z-stick, a FGBS-001 Universal Sensor and a compact, outdoor reed switch. Trouble is, like some other folks, I've now discovered the universal sensor doesn't seem to be fully supported yet. Interesting that ftsikogi managed to see IN1 & IN2 as events (http://www.homegenie.it/forum/index.php?topic=900.msg5439#msg5439). I'm yet to see this, though I have done a 'Get' on the node and obtained the Support Classes information.

So I'm interested in finding out if anyone is actively working on the configuration to support the FGBS-001? Or if anyone has got it working, are they able to share some information on how?

I'm happy to take a look at home to develop support for the FGBS-001, but the learning curve will likely be steep and slow.

Also, does the C# Iteration example in the Documentation section seem correct?

Code: [Select]

var selection = Modules.InGroup("Living Room").SelectedModules;
foreach(var module in selection)
{
    module.On();
}

I get told this if I drop that into a program and compile: 'HomeGenie.Data.Module' does not contain a definition for 'On'...

I've had a bit of trouble understanding Module/ModuleHelper/ModulesManager etc. The only way I managed to iterate over the modules in my group and call the On() or obtain Parameter information was like this:

Code: [Select]

Modules.InGroup("test").Each( (module) => {
  module.On();
  Program.Notify("Reporting", "Module: " + module.Instance.Name + ", Level: " + module.Parameter("Status.Level").DecimalValue);
    return false; // continue iterating
 });

The latter callback approach is probably better form anyway, but keen on understanding if the first approach should have worked.

Thanks guys
