WebControl 8 is Currently in the Beta (Non-Production) Store


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

WebControl8 is for use with the CAI WebControl 8 I/O board. 

This plug in offers all 8 temperatures, 3 Analog Inputs, 8 digital inputs, 8 outputs, 1 Humidity, Freq., and Counter.

The plug in also has a dedicated heartbeat along with the NodeServer Connected field. The Heartbeat switches from 1 to -1 with every successful poll.

Polls are set by shortPoll in seconds and will only update values which have changed since the last poll.

longPoll is also in seconds and will force a full update of all values.

A query is also included and will force a longPoll when pressed.

I have included a text field in PGx which will allow you to enter a JSON formed single line text to rename all or some of the nodes. This way you can rename "Temp1" to a friendly name such as "Outside." This way you can save the Json for future use. The alternative is to painstakingly change each node name in IoX.

Although this plugin is in non-production, it has been working fine for me on both my test bed and my main eISY for weeks now. I am currently running 4 instances on 4 WebControl 8 boards with no issues.

This plug in is being offered for free, but use at your own risk. I originally set out to see if I might be able to create a plugin, with the valuable help of many devs on this forum, @Michel Kohanim, @bpwwer, @Goose66, @Jimbo.Automates, and JR on discord (I am sorry I don't know your username here on the forum) I was able to succeed! Thank you all for your patience and help these last couple of months, if it weren't for you this would not be possible.
