Change harmonyId and activity at the top to match your harmony device ID in vera and the activity id for your android plugin: Nice one to mull about after a relaxing vacationĬool idea on the cameras - I don’t have any cameras setup yet, but I’ll keep this in mind when I add some.Ĭreate a new scene, and add this to the LUUP tab. Would require some logic change but should be doable.
FLIRC HARMONY SETUP HOW TO
Maybe I can see how to enhance that, maybe by not waiting on completion for the HTML requests. The HTML interface indeed does not return anything until the activity has started and that can be well over 30 seconds as you know. It’s not a big deal as the command goes through and the devices turn on nonetheless, but I thought I’d let you know. The only thing is, when I issue the “activity on” command through the echo, which in turn sends the http request to the plugin, I guess it takes too long to get the response back so the echo says “the device named media center cannot be reached” every time.
FLIRC HARMONY SETUP UPDATE
The latest update seems to work every time. I hope to release the new version tomorrow. If you have a scene or notification on the current activity you would trigger that multiple times. This will also fix an issue where the CurrentActivityID value would be changing multiple times between the old and new activity. I am now testing a fix that will show the plugin as busy until the activity has really started. I found that the behaviour you are describing happens when the communication timeout is set to 5 seconds or less.
The result is instant control of my z-wave lights and other devices with Harmony button presses.Īlso I have my Vera pause Uverse when I get up and leave the room and then play when I return so the above helps let Vera know when I have manually paused/play and react accordingly. Then obviously you can do whatever you want from there using PLEG to react to these. Since Eventghost is limited on what Vera devices it can control, I use VoxCommando which is awesome at not only reacting to events from Vera but also in issuing commands including Multiswitches! I set up Eventghost to send commands to Voxcommando which then sends command to Vera to trigger the Multiswitch. In my Uverse activity, I created sequences for the pause and play buttons which first sent Uverse command then pause/play commands on Flirc. Then I created Flirc as a device through the Harmony App. First I mapped the Harmony control buttons in Flirc as keyboard presses and made sure they were being recognized by Eventghost. I have a Flirc IR USB controller on my HTPC which is also running Eventghost. For this example I wanted my Vera to know when I pressed pause/play while watching Uverse, that way I could control lights accordingly. I’d like to share how I have managed to get my Veralite to react to button presses on my Harmony remote.
