OK, fine, I have the new version running here and it works fine.

I am retrieving and collecting the id's for all "lamps" at startup, building a lookup table. This then gets updated regularly (it follows the setting of the socket time out so if you have 120 sec it will be every 2 minutes) This means that you can add items in ONH while all systems are running and next round the lookup table will be updated.

The format of the action is like the old one. Here is a 'copy as python' of one of my actions: If you at any time are interested to check the content of the lookup table, you can issue the following command from a script or from the python shell I will make a new installable in a few minutes and put it in the normal place (I will delete the previous one)

Sounds great, man! Thanks! I will put that into action Monday morning and let you know what happens!

@Mastiff,

I have been keeping the system running since last time without problems, the ONH log is empty since I cleared it once testing started

It seems that it is not a bad idea to separate between commands and events, i.e. EG is listening for events on the TCP port but sending commands using REST interface. It might bee that it is possible to disturb the communication on the TCP port if sending and receiving "at the same time", who knows...

Anyway, here it works without problems, switching lamps on/off are fast I think. So how about your setup, any progress, everything is working as expected?

Hey, are you a f'n thought reader, or something?!??!?! Or maybe you're monitoring my systems through a back dor in ONH? I was just writing an answer to this thread! I had to wait until today to do anything since Internet fell out at the house I sold (misunderstanding with the transfer of the account)! And now I have implemented it, but I get this on every send:
I have a sneaking suspicion that it's a port error, or something. Or maybe something has to be configured in ONH itself? I don't see a REST interface under Ports in the setup. Is that it?

Oh, I have version 2.1-SNAPSHOT-8fde5 of ONH, if that matters.

You can try if the REST interface is working with a link in the browser like The REST interface is using the web port (8020 default)
I do have the JettyWEB in GUI configured if that matters but if you can browse to ONH the normal way, I think it should work
My version of ONH: 2.1-SNAPSHOT-cc547
This was upgraded about 4 days ago using the nightly build but I think the REST interface has been there since long

Never mind! Got it working it seems. Took a full restart of the VM, not just restart of the programs. I'll be back with what I find.

Well, so far it's working perfectly! I haven't had one single loss of contact since I implemented it. So I can REST a lot more easily now (yeah, milking that one for all it's worth and more...)! Weird thing is that it seems to have cured another problem I did have, where all the USB devices (RFX and Tellstick used by EG, USB-UIRT and a USB to RS-232 serial converter for Girder) disconnected from the USB over LAN solution I use. So I think this is a real keeper, master!

Great to hear!
Also here, I cannot see any problems at all. Let's hope for the best long term stability

Take care (and now we hopefully can REST)

BR Walter

Yeah, hopefully! The question is if you can get Stefan to fix the REST of ONHs port problems!

Up and running with Z-Stick through ONH and the PlugIn! At least I can turn on and off the Fibaro Dimmer 2 that I have now. What I don't get is the dimmer telling me when I turn it on with the wall switch. But I have asked Stefan if it's implemented, and if it is, how I get it working. So I guess I'm officially on the dark side now... But I will NEVER go HomeSeer! That is too dark even for me, and people often call me Darth Vader!

Sounds nice!

Seems to me what I hear is that commands are working but what about events from ONH?

When you control a z-wave device, I would expect a notification about this (via an event). So a switch would report its state; on or off. A dimmer should report its level etc. Regardless from where it is controlled, there should be a network event distributed

Yeah, I mean the feedback. I don't get that. So I have asked about it on the ONH board. Stefan said there has been little interest for Z-Wave, which is of course because I have't bought Z-Wave until now!
