Push Data to Vera Node
-
Ok,
Current Project:
So I'm working on another project that involves controlling an existing ventilation system. It's very similar to the water heater control a few months ago..Problem Description:
The sensor node needs to monitor the ventilation signal from the HVAC controller, and report an On or Off status to the Vera Node. (much like battery level, last update.. etc..) I have all the hardware completed however.... I don't know how to send this information from the sensor node to the Vera node?Question:
How do I send this information from the sensor node to the Vera node?Thanks

Why not just send the ventilation status as V_LIGHT or V_VAR_1.
-
@hek I guess in an effort to keep things a little neater. Is it even possible to send vars to the Vera Node?
-
What do you mean by "Vera Node"?
-
@hek
When a sensor is added to Vera, a 'Node' and x number of children are created. That Node is what I'm talking about. The parent (node) of the children in Vera.

I would suggest your Arduino Node/sketch creates a child device (e.g. Light) which you report values on. The "Vera Node" device shouldn't be used for this... But if you must it has child-id 255.

I'll take your advice and create and use a light child.Thanks
