openHAB binding

[parachutesj]

Hi,
after my openHAB system completely failed I had to re-install everying. I had MySensors configured the old way with a lot of rules with the serial binding I thought I give the binding a try.
In general it works but I have issues with S_COVER, not sure how to configure this.
But of course in openhab it is a single Rollershutter item... I think I could do a workaround in creating in total 4 items and only show my rollershutter and then have a rule and based on up/down/stop update the 3 items.

Anyhow, seems to complex.

What is best practice here?

The sensor presents itself with this:

 * Example item: 188;2;V_UP                 - Window covering. Up.
 * Example item: 188;2;V_DOWN               - Window covering. Down.
 * Example item: 188;2;V_STOP               - Window covering. Stop.
 * Example item: 188;2;V_PERCENTAGE         - Percentage value. 0-100 (%) ```

I saw STOP in S_cover is not supported in OH2 - what about OH1? Anyone?

@parachutesj According OH2: That was fixed a looooooong time ago. :D

Refer to: https://github.com/tobof/openhab2-addons/wiki/Examples for an example (cover).

@TimO thank you.
and what is with OH1? Not getting it to work.
Does not seem that STOP works, UP & DOWN and PERCENTAGE work

@parachutesj I can't help you with this version of the binding, I've never used it.

@TimO Thanks anyway. I am slowly moving into the OH2 direction - still a lot of things to be clarified and configured

Hello guys, who can unpin this post?

It is terribly outdated.

The effort for an openhab-mysensors binding is still valid but several things changed on OpenHAB, making this a lot easier.

@guillermo-schimmel done. Is there some other post that should be pinned instead?

@mfalkvidd Thanks! Just give me a couple of days and I will try to make a new tutorial for mysensors+openhab.
