PlugwiseSource run events and external programs

Post by RdP »

Hi,

I was planning to add plug wise Switch and Scan functionality to 'my' Homeseer plugin, but it seems that this can't be done natively.

But..... what you can do in general, (not homeseer related)

I added the events license to my Plugwise Source program (50 euro :-(). This enables me to run a script directly at the push of a Switch button, Scan movement, Sense changes or any other Source event.

This script can execute any external program or other scripting command you might find useful. Using an external program enables me to run a Homeseer event or command, but of course you can also interface with any other program....

See screenshots.... Maybe this is useful for anybody.

This is very usefull info.
Also I wish Plugwise was a bit more open about which extensions you can buy, what purpose they serve and the cost involved.

If you download the product catalog you can find a short description of available extensions on page 8 I noticed just now.
