Development support for Teletask

Post by JDat »

Hello!

Sorry for errors and bad culture because this is my first post.

I am New to DomotiGa, but not new in Gambas.
Few days ago lookeg on DomotiGa source code.

I want to write interface for TELETASK (http://www.teletask.be), but can't understand DomotiGa interface for components. Too much edits in many modules. So... This is not about code critics, but about additional functionality. I want to contribute Teletask code fo DomotiGa. I am posting Teletask API (see attachment) info and want that someone make template for Teletask. Then I can complete this component if no one will do this.

TELETASK has bad licence for they protocol. I can get problems with they API documentation distribution. :( But knowledge must be free!

Hi,

DomotiGa is not modular, sorry...
No idea how to create that in Gambas...

But you can look at this doc to see how to write you own code (I think it's still valid for current code base)
http://www.domotiga.nl/wiki/Domotiga/Development
It's not that hard ones you get to learn the inner side of DomotiGa, there is some kind of structure involved.. I promise ;-)

If you have ideas how to make it modular, or to document development related issues better please let me know.
Regards, Ron.

Thank You for response! We will discuss later about DomotiGa development and modularity.

Right now (in nearest future): Can somebody write template (skeletion or whatever) for teletask. I want that TELETASK become controllable from Linux (boo to win :P ). Actually I have some experience with Teletask coding in Win (via Visual Basic and OCX).

Guys! Let's do this device support for Linux and my Teletask user probably migrate from win to linux (with my help).

Right now i am Linux Patriot! :D

PS: read licence agreement for teletask api before use API documentation. I didn't own TELETASK box, but I know user, who own and use this box. Hope that teletask guys will not sue me for API distribution in internet. :shock:

Hello,

I am also interrested in interfacing Teletask with a linux system.
I have at least 2 Linux server running 24/24 for TV, music, ... and would like to be able to get alarms coming from teletask (Micros) on the screens of my servers.
Or an alternative should be to be able to send sms in case of alarms.

Any hint ?

thanks,

sp

Re-hello,

I see the OCX doc is for RS232 connection. I have a new Micros with Ethernet connection.
Does the same exist for that model ?

thanks,

I think, that something similar exist for Micros. I don't have access to micros documentation, because my friend own only nanos at home. Probably You can try to sniffer serial traffic (with HHD free serial port monitor or similar), compare with ocx documentition and, I think, You can analise protocol.
