roomnode moved & lobat endpoints on the xAPFlash Joggler app
17 February, 2013 - 21:41
Does anyone here use either the moved or lobat endpoints with the joggler xAPFlash applet?
having trouble in getting them to display the values, in the pachube tab i have the "key" setup as state as opposed to text, this seems to work fine for cosm - https://cosm.com/feeds/94428
the endpoints are setup as follows
dbzoo.livebox.jeenode:bedroom2.moved
dbzoo.livebox.jeenode:bedroom2.lobat
snippet on my button value for the moved endpoint
<button NAME="Room2-Moved">
<gridX>5</gridX>
<gridY>2</gridY>
<label>
<text>R2-PIR</text>
<fontcolour>0xFFFFFF</fontcolour>
<offset>-20</offset>
<fontsize>20</fontsize>
</label>
<bsctext>
<fontcolour>0xFFFFFF</fontcolour>
</bsctext>

<uid>FF00D802</uid>
<source>dbzoo.livebox.jeenode:bedroom2.moved</source>
</xAP>
<mode>status</mode>
</button>
snippet for lobat - note the mode is set to text and the hide is set to state
<button NAME="Room2-Lobat">
<gridX>4</gridX>
<gridY>2</gridY>
<label>
<text>R2-PWR</text>

</button>
The secret is to use a DUAL image button and map these buttons to the STATE.

ON would mean the LOBAT status was set to 1 - which is why the GREEN button appears.
OFF is for the LOBAT status of 0 (RED Button) as in everything is OK.
Yeah I know they should be the other way around but I haven't got to fixing that and renaming the button set to match the colours. Easily done in anycase you can see how this is done below.
<button NAME="OutsideLoBat">
<gridX>1</gridX>
<gridY>2</gridY>
<style>glossy_button_off_.png</style>
<width>80</width>
<height>80</height>
<posX>+10</posX>
<label>
<text>LoBat</text>
<offset>-50</offset>

</button>
And a screenshot of showing how this looks. I have a few jeenodes offline and I need to put a larger antenna on the base node so they get reliable comms.
