Title: DPDT Momentary Function
Post by: wd8aww on 2012-06-04, 04:45:12

Is there a way to configure the switch so a single click can close specific multiple relays?
Better yet, is there a way to do the above but make it a momentary function (returns to default after mouse release).   Would love to adopt the switch to replace a screwdriver controller DPDT momentary center off configuration.

Is this a Webswitch 1216H question? It seems so from what you write ;)

The Webswitch is not capable of doing what you want using its built-in functions. You would have to externally control it using HTTP-REST as described on this page:

http://www.webswitch.se/wp/?page_id=342 (http://www.webswitch.se/wp/?page_id=342)

in order to control multiple relays from for ex. some program capable of issuing a number of HTTP-GET requests.

Thanks.  The HTTP command set is partway there.  It offers either ALL on/off functions with time, or a SPECIFIC SINGLE relay w/ timer, but doesn't appear to give the option of turning on Relays 1 AND 2 with timer or 1 and 3, etc.    Is there a command set that would let me apply  on/off to more than one relay, but less than all?

That's right. I was thinking about the possibility to give a couple of on/off single relays commands in sequence. That would cause a slight delay between the relays turning on/off, but hopefully that would not be a problem?

I would like to see something like the following:

http://[webswitch address]/relaycontrol/on/1,3,5

to turn on relay 1, 3 and 5.     73 de Lars SM3CCM

This feature will be added in the coming 2.6 version. The separator character will be a $ since that is most likely not used in the names of a relay.
