Linear GD00Z-X Garage Door Opener

[pofs]

Once again: the file in Pepper1 db is broken and violates xml schema. It won't be indexed until it is fixed!

[RottenMutt]

I would love to fix it but i don't know what is wrong, the error from zway is too general. is there a way to get better diagnostics?
I did look for tabs... other then no certid i got nothing.

Updated to 2.0.1rc21 and it won't complete the security interview any more, even after exclusion and inclusion.

I'm new to this whole thing, but the "expert" UI is really frustrating. I click on most buttons and they give me no feedback. I can tell that angular is sending a pseudo-REST call, e.g. for a security interview, but the rest call usually returns the string "null" and the UI doesn't even update. What was supposed to happen? Impossible to tell. What actually happened? Also impossible to tell.

Am I looking in the wrong place? Where should I be looking to see why this is failing?

Updated to 2.0.1rc21 and it won't complete the security interview any more, even after exclusion and inclusion.

Actually Security was not modified for a long time, so I doubt it doesn't complete interview because of update to rc21. Please show the log fragment right after inclusion started.

It won't appear there unless it is fixed in Pepper1 database, or you fix it on your side and rebuild index.

I'll explain this in more detail for those of you still trying to understand some of this stuff. I think pofs has some important things to work on

1. Remote / login to your pi.

2. Change your directory to the ZDDX foler:
/opt/z-way-server/ZDDX/

3. Open the XML file for the Linear GD00Z-x:
file: 584-01-4f-4744-30-32-03-03-67-00-15.xml

4. Edit the text. The text below in green is added into Device Data:

...<deviceData>
<manufacturerId value="014f"/>
<productType value="4744"/>
<productId value="3032"/>
<libType value="03"/>
<protoVersion value="03"/>
<protoSubVersion value="67"/>
<appVersion value="00"/>
<appSubVersion value="15"/>
<basicClass value="04"/>
<genericClass value="40"/>
<specificClass value="07"/>
<optional value="true"/>
<listening value="true"/>
<routing value="false"/>
<beamSensor>0</beamSensor>
<rfFrequency>US</rfFrequency>
</deviceData>...

Or if you want the whole file:

Code: Select all

5. Save & make a backup file of the xml. (save on your destkop or home directory)

Now we need to Update the xml index file.

6. Open terminal if you aren't already using it [ LXTerminal if you are in the GUI ]

7. change your directory to the ZDDX folder

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ cd/opt/z-way-server/ZDDX/

8. Run the python script to update the index

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ python MakeIndex.py

9. Be patient. This should now update the device description dropdown in the UI.

10. Repeat these steps everytime you do an upgrade, ex. v2.0.1-rc16 to v.2.0.1-rc18. During the upgrade it will overwrite your modified XML file. This is why you make a backup on step 5

11. Crap. I broke something or it didn't work. 1st, you have just learned why you make backups and 2nd no big deal you can manually run the update to copy the database from pepper1. Lastly, stop messing with things -just kidding its how you learn .

Manually Update Device Description Database
A. Open up terminal or LXTerminal.

B. Change directory to the ZDDX directory:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ cd/opt/z-way-server/ZDDX/

C. Run the shell script:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ ./UpdateXMLs.sh

D. Be patient, get some coffee. Once this completes you should now have the newest copy of the pepper1 device description database. (including any xml files that aren't valid )

Thank you rsebie
How can I issue expert commands to close the door?
I would like to be able to add to my bed time scene to close the door.

[rsebes]

Please note, my above post really doesn't gain you much unless you like to see the device image or like to have that fuzzy feeling that you were able to select the device description record. You can still send Open, close, alarm, and retrieve status by the Z-way API after inclusion.

Now with that said...

Thank you rsebie

I don't know if you can use expert commands, only use the Z-way API (through the URL) that has already been discussed earlier in this thread.

EDIT: Sorry about my ramblings about DoorLock, that was intended for another audience

I don't know of any way to control it from the Expert UI.

What I did to control the garage door was to create a Code Device in the ZWay HA and set it as a binary switch.
For On/Off commands I used:

Code: Select all

zway.devices[13].BarrierOperator.Set(<255 for on and 0 for off>);

For the status update I used:

Code: Select all

zway.devices[13].BarrierOperator.data.state.value > 0  ?  "on":"off";

Replace 13 with your index for your own GD00Z

[RottenMutt]

This works, now i can open and close my garage door from my phone and close the garage door with my Bed Time Scene. under modules, Devices, Code Devices:
In the on and off I put:
zway.devices[26].BarrierOperator.Set(255)
and
zway.devices[26].BarrierOperator.Set(0)
and in the code to get value:
zway.devices[26].BarrierOperator.data.state.value > 0 ? "on":"off"

replace 26 with your device id

Awesome. Glad you got it working!
