Extended commands, web control
Posted: Mon Sep 24, 2012 6:34 pm
As part of my tinkering with remote control, and partly to solve shortcomings in controlling the box via the web, I've created a set of extended commands that my Estim Control/Server software responds to, which all you to send a command to, for instance, make the box go to a specific setting over a particular time period.
I've documented them, so that anyone who was so minded could support them in their own software. Most I'm not using yet, though plan to as I develop the web control side of things a little more.
The most useful, besides the ability to tell the box to go to a specific setting, are probably the ability to save a set of settings from the web page to the Mac software as a favourite, and to recall any favourite from that list later, which together make using the web much more straightforward.
In the (possibly unlikely) event of anyone else wanting to get stuck in, documentation on the extended commands is at http://roughsex.org/estimextensions.html
It would be nice to see some of these find their way into the box itself one day, perhaps.
