Domoticz V_TEXT sensor now bidirectional

[Sushukka]

YEEEEEEESSSSHHH!!! This is now implemented in Domoticz!
https://github.com/domoticz/domoticz/issues/2380

You can change the V_TEXT sensor value in Domoticz via JSON, Scripts and Blocky and the update will be sent directly to the node without any hacks!!! This is big update; you can pass lots of information, parameters etc directly to the nodes without extra steps and work-arounds. LCD screen updates, speech-to-text commands, parameter/code driven nodes...now we just need bigger payload size for MySensors... 😄

Edit: Just remember when updating that you may need to change your old sketches + tricks and hacks because you now get the V_TEXT update twice if you have the old hacks active.

Hey,

yes. I think that has to do with this error i am getting since i updated Domoticz:

I don't know which sensor is involved with that Error.
How do i debug that if i don't know my node-ID's? ;)

Reboot each node and look at the presentation until you find node is 2

@edsteve Or if you have labelled it all correctly, look under Hardware, all the Node IDs are there along with Child IDs...

Thanks. Found it.
