Re: New Windows Gadget
Very nice will add it at home. Too bad we are on XP at work (yup, scary I know... and using IE 6.0 ... )
Making an android Widget similar to this would be incredibly awesome !

Re: New Windows Gadget
The #define InstalledRelayExpansionModules 1 line is in there for good measures. It's primarily useful when you have more than one relay expansion installed. If it's not defined, I do additional checks and set it to be 1 by default if you have RelayExp enabled. Having it there is the proper way.dmolton wrote:I think all you need is #define RelayExp to get everything back, thats all that I have in my Features file, although the #define InstalledRelayExpansionModules doesn't look familiar to me. I've never used that before so not sure if it effects what comes back.chrome wrote:Sweet nice, works like a charm.
I have the RelayExp enabled but it still only returns 8 ports back from an /r99
How do you get all 16 ports if you have an expansion relay to show in the xml? And yes, I have the dev libraries.
Code: Select all
#define RelayExp #define InstalledRelayExpansionModules 1
In the returned xml, <R>,<RON> and <ROFF> represent the first relay box statuses. <R0>,<RON0> and <ROFF0> represent the second relay box worth of data. What are you seeing coming back in the xml?
C'mon Dave, you've been reading all my OTHER comments and changelogs yet you missed that one. haha
Re: New Windows Gadget
PS. You get to make all the "cool" apps and I'm stuck just coding on the controller. hahaha

Re: New Windows Gadget
dave, what about a gadget that gets its info from the client? I don't have mine hooked up to wifi right now and would rather not since it's been working so well plugged in directly since switching.
Re: New Windows Gadget

Re: New Windows Gadget
Not sure exactly. Like I said, you need to be sure you can access the controller through a web browser first. You also might need to do some port forwarding on your router at home. Once you can browse the controllers web server page, copy/paste the url you used into the settings screen.lukeluke wrote:great work.

The URL you want to use will show a web page with just the bold text:
Reef Angel Controller Web Server
The gadget will add the extra bits to the end of the url in order to get the temps.
Re: New Windows Gadget
nice work! i just installed it and wow! some.. i would also like to setup my router for port forwarding, just in case if someone would shade some light. i have a uverse router.. anyone?
Re: New Windows Gadget
This would be cool to post under the Downloads section. Just upgraded my computer and was restoring all my apps and figured I'd throw the suggestion out there since it wasn't listed!
Re: New Windows Gadget
Can you improve the proxy support ?
Thanks
Thanks
Re: New Windows Gadget
Hi,
On my system there appears to be a problem calculating how big to make the widget.
Here is a screen shot.
As you can see the arrow to show the relays and the bottom line of display is not visible.
This is on Windows 7. I have my text size set to Medium (125%). I think you might need to take that into account when you calculate how big to make the widget. Another option would be to specify the font size more specifically.
Don
PS: If you want me to I can probably fix this if the source code is available somewhere.

Re: New Windows Gadget
All the source code is embedded within the .gadget. It works similar to JAR files.dedvalson wrote:Is the source for this available? I would like to fix the display issuededvalson wrote: PS: If you want me to I can probably fix this if the source code is available somewhere.

Rename the .gadget extension to .zip
Inside the zip you should see all the source files. It's mostly all javascript, css and html. The Win framework provides a System.Gadget namespace you can use in the Javascript. Here's some resources you can refer to on msdn:

Re: New Windows Gadget
I have recently had this as well. I fixed it by doing this:i am having a problem with my windows gadget. it was working then it closed and showed no IP address. now when i put the address doesnt conect anymore.
Goto controle pannel and open up add remove program's.
In the lefthand side pane there is an option to add or remove Windows features.
(please excuse me if I have the wording wrong but I am not at home and doing this from memory on my iPad)
Then look for Windows gadgets, and unclick the box. Save and reboot.
When PC is back repeat the above and put a tick in the box. Sorry but a reboot is needed.
Then right click on desktop and select add gadgets.
This worked for me. I could not find any other way of restarting the services that relate to gadgets. There may be a better way, if so I would like to know, and please let me know if this worked for you.
Good luck.
Re: New Windows Gadget
The host process for the gadgets is called "sidebar.exe". You should be able to just kill the process in task manager. When you add a new gadget to the desktop it will automatically restart the sidebar.exe host process for you. Quicker than restarting
Re: New Windows Gadget
Hi,
There seems to be something wrong with the XML coming from my ReefAngel. I have the latest dev libraries installed and I have one expansion box. I looked at the Gadgets Javascript, and it is looking for an <R0> tag for the expansion port. But my box doesn't provide an R0. The first expansion box is shown as <R1> as shown below. So I'm trying to figure out who is wrong, the gadget or my box.
Should there be an R0? If so, why would my RA produce R1 instead of R0? Or should the gadget look for R1 instead?

Re: New Windows Gadget
It's supposed to be R1 for first expansion box. This way it will make more sense with the displaying and it will match with the retrieval of the labels. It also makes it compatible with the Portal as well.
It was originally R0 in the 0.8.5.x code, but it was switched to R1 in the 0.9.X code. I just looked it up.

Re: New Windows Gadget
Hi,
I hope no one minds, but I have attached an updated version of the Gadget with the following changes.
1. The main window is 30 pixels taller so that the arrow is visible (at least on my screen).
2. The Flyout 2 window is also taller so that all the LEDs are visible.
3. I changed R0 to R1.
4. I bumped the revison to 1.0.1.0

Re: New Windows Gadget
I'm assuming you have the wifi attachment working, right?
Then, on Reefangel IP address, you have to make sure you add http:// in front of it and :2000 after it.
Like this: http://ipaddress:2000

Re: New Windows Gadget
Can you browse to your controller when you type http://ipaddress:2000 in your browser address?
You should see "Reef Angel Controller Web Server"
Copy the address that your browser is showing and paste it in the gadget address
