Hi All,

I am stuck at the moment with an evenghost issue.

I have installed the plugin and trying to identify how to send the current state of power.

I have setup a macro to read current power state and placed a python command to print the state to verify. This all works.

I then added a CQC action to send power state and put on value 1 to send to CQC.

However this doesnt work as it always sends the on command. How do i send a value to CQC based on the current state? I.e. 1 for on and 0 for off.

Thanks

Dale

If you are using a User Action event, you would just select SendEvent in EventGhost and fill in something like:

Event Type: Power
Event Data: 1

Then you would create a Triggered Event in CQC use the statement below to pull the data:

Code:

Is User Action Event From <Driver Moniker Name>

Code:

TrigEvent::GetUserActionVals(LVar:EventType, LVar:EventData)
System::LogMsg(Test Action, 0, EventType: %(LVar:EventType) EventData: %(LVar:EventData), Status)

Thanks Wuench, just want to confirm, how do i setup the above code in a triggered event?

Open the CQC Admin Interface
Select Managed Scheduled/Triggered Events
Select the Triggered Events Tab
Click Add New
For first trigger select Is User Action From
Right Click on Device: Field and Select your EventGhost Driver
Fill the in Title (anything you want)
Click Edit Action
Enter the commands
Click Save
Click Save

That code just pastes the data into the CQC log, you will need to add whatever commands you want to do something more useful.
