Apps using the lighting scheme

Postby micke.prag » Wed Mar 10, 2010 4:53 am

I am developing two apps. One server exporting a lighting gateway and a client using the devices from the gateway.
My question, is there any other apps out there that has implemented this scheme? It would be great to test both my apps against other application making sure I am implementing the scheme correct.

I have a Lutron xPL gateway that supports the lighting schema that runs on Linux. I have begun an X10 CM11 gateway and wanted to add the lighting schema but still haven't figured out how to share schema support code between two different apps that use Gerry's xPLLib library.

Howdy,

Maybe I can help out -- what sort of questions do you have on the xPLLib stuff? I didn't quite understand what you meant by the "share schema support" code note, but I'm sure with a little more info, I can help work something out.

Hi Gerry. Thanks for the reply. I don't think my issue is with xPLLib in particular. What I would like to do is have a library module that implements just the lighting schema. What I need to do is abstract the underlying serial protocol from the schema so that the lighting schema code can be shared with Lutron, CM11a, or anything else. My first implementation has the underlying serial protocol and lighting schema all in the same routines. This approach would work well for something like the HAI security panel which will require lighting, security and HVAC schemas.

Thanks,
Greg
