New beta firmware available

[Jan (Microbit)]

Android using the App or the web page? And only in version 3.0 of the Webswitch?

Jan,
Android APP and also the IPOD APP or IPAD-IPhone
has the same problem just tested my Ipod
unknown relay (name I gave)

starting from 3.0 , not versions b4

You gave the relay name "unkown"?  Or no name at all? There has been no change in v3.0 in that functionality, so make sure you have given the relay a name and also that it isn't controlled by something else.

You could also try entering:

http://[url]/relaycontrol/on/4

and

http://[url]/relaycontrol/off/4

to find out it the relay works then.

I get the message "UNKNOWN RELAY MKII+SM 12V"
relay4 name is MKII+SM 12V
this is only in the ANDROID and IPOD APP and this name worked ok in previous releases
via windows http all is ok

Aha! I suspect it has something to do with the name itself, most likely the "+" sign. I now remember that I had to change the way URLs are parsed for another reason, and that might be causing what you are seeing. Could you try renaming the relay by for ex. removing the + sign?

[ON4AOI]

Jan,
I made the change from + to - and it is working ok again
something for the documents that not all chr are allowed anymore.
did you see my mail ?

Hi,

I have installed v3.0 of the firmware, but I can not see how to use temperature.nu. It does not show up on the APC program page and I can not see the status on the system info page either. Do I somehow need to activate that funcionality?

The build of the firmware is Dec 27 2012 13:41:14.

Bobbo,
in the Advanced settings tab the last line is used to put it in www.temperatur.nu

Yes, as found here: http://www.webswitch.se/wp/?page_id=517

Added possibility to show temperature in Fahrenheit.

If you use the API to ask for temperature and carheater state is there a way to know if the temperature is in Celsius or Fahrenheit?

I guess for temperature (/temperature/get/[1-25]) the answer would be no as it just returns a value.

But for the carheater state (/carheaterstate/get) could it not be part of the XML response? Either as a child tag of "temperature" or as an attribute of the "temperature" tag.

Yes, adding for ex. <tempunit>Fahrenheit/Celsius</tempunit> to the car heater state would be easy so I will do that  (It will be a separate tag since that is easier to handle in the Webswitch)

[nilrog]

Great!

Would it also be possible for the carheterstate to return the current status of the relay for each program, on/off?

Today what you can see in the XML-response is engagetime, disengagetime. But those still return valid values when the program has ended and the relay is off. So you need to perform some logic on the client side if you want to figure out if the relay is on or off. Or make a separate query to the webswitch for the status of the relayname returned by the carheterstate for each program.

It is not difficult for a client to do that but if this information could also be included in the XML-response then there is one, or two, less queries that needs to be done.

OK, you will get:

<relaystate>0/1/X</relaystate>

and

<tempunit>Celsius/Fahrenheit</tempunit>

as child tags to <carheater>

Sweet!

  Nice feature with temperatur.nu, is it possible to get it under monitoring?
Is the name case-sensitive? I tried with first letter capital and got ERROR(9), if I use lowercase only i works perfectly.

Best regards,
