Controlling other devices

Postby nicholasvanh » Fri Apr 25, 2014 1:06 pm

In the description it describes that this app can control lights gates and fire places. But for instance my fireplace needs a sustained contact closure for it to on. How do you go about setting it up to accomplish this. There is also a picture of a table lamp, obviously you wouldn't want it to just blink on a for second.....I must be missing something?

Hi,

The app triggers a relay. What the trigger does after, is up to you ... You could for
instance have something toggle the lamp/fireplace ON or OFF upon being triggered.

There has been a feature request to add latching output support to the app. See
following thread:

viewtopic.php?f=13&t=222

That feature will most likely be included in our next release. Add your vote on
that thread to make it count even more.

Best regards,
support

I'm trying to control a garage light to latch on, I found some code for this on this board but I keep getting a compile error? Can anyone help?

You seem to be having extraneous closing braces } following the end of your ELSE block ...
Each opening brace '{' should have a matching closing brace '}' ...
