Hi all
I'm looking for help, To send via tcpclient the real status of light/sensor, For example "lights:02:on", "lights:03:0ff" to 3rd party server.

Code: [Select]
var remoteServer = "192.168.123.45";
var remotePort = 12345;

Action<string> HandleStringReceived = (string message) => {
  // this will be called every time a message is received from the tcp channel
  Program.Notify("Server String", message);
};

Action<byte[]> HandleMessageReceived = (byte[] message) => {
  // this will be called every time a message is received from the tcp channel
  Program.Notify("Server Bytes", BitConverter.ToString(message));
};

Action<bool> HandleStatusChanged = (bool connected) => {
  // this will be called whenever the tcp connection status has changed
  Program.Notify("TCP Client", "Connected = " + connected);
};

Program.Notify("TCP Client", "Starting");
// open the TCPIP port channel and register handlers

//TcpClient.EndOfLine = "\r\n"; // default is "\n"
TcpClient
  .OnStringReceived( HandleStringReceived )
  .OnMessageReceived( HandleMessageReceived )
  .OnStatusChanged( HandleStatusChanged )
  .Service( remoteServer )
  .Connect( remotePort );

Program.Notify("TCP Client", "Started");

When.ModuleParameterChanged((module, parameter) => {
 
  if (module.IsOfDeviceType("Light,Dimmer") && parameter.Is("Status.Level"))
  if (TcpClient.IsConnected)
  {
    var message = String.Format("{0}:{1}:{2}", module.Instance.Domain, module.Instance.Address, parameter.Value);
    TcpClient.SendMessage(message);
  }
  else
  {
    Program.Notify("TCP client disconnected", "Unable to deliver message.");
  }
 
  return true;
});

Program.GoBackground();

Hi Gene,

Thanks a lot! it's working perfect. ;D ;D
in this case it is connect only to one server, But if I want to make the HG to the server and one or more clients will be able to speak with him it is possible?
Thx
Kobi.

please explain better. Do you need HG to connect to more than just one server?

Ok,

The HG is the TCPClient and he speak only with one TCPServer 192.xxx.xxx.xxx,
It's possible to make the HG to the TCPServer and other TCP clients speak with him?
Otherwise if it's not possible to open on HG TCPServer there is any way to convert the TCPClient to Serial Port via USB?

Thanks.

Hi Gene,

change the line
Code: [Select]
if (module.IsOfDeviceType("Light,Dimmer") && parameter.Is("Status.Level"))
with
Code: [Select]
if (module.Is("Security Alarm System") || (module.IsOfDeviceType("Light,Dimmer") && parameter.Is("Status.Level")))
