Sensors

Sending events from command line

There is a utility in LinuxMCE (/usr/pluto/bin) that allows sending proper DCE message from command line. If you want for instance to trip motion sensors on/off you can achieve this in simple way (ID means ID of particular device that you send event for) :

Event "tripped on"

ID -1000 2 9 25 1

Event "tripped off"

ID -1000 2 9 25 0

Event "temperature changed"

ID  -1000 2 25 30 temperature_value

Event "output on"

ID  -1000 2 28

Event "output off"

ID  -1000 2 29

For instance -

A. tripping security sensor with ID of 195 to ON :
/usr/pluto/bin/MessageSend dcerouter 195 -1000 2 9 25 1

B. play media (/home/public/data/tts/0.wav) on Xine player with ID of 44 :
/usr/pluto/bin/MessageSend localhost 0 44 1 37 29 "" 41 "" 42 "" 59 "/home/public/data/tts/0.wav"
