I honestly haven't thought about that type of feature at all. It's not a bad request at all. I know some router software is not smart enough to handle a request to the external IP address from the internal network and forward it to the proper internal IP.

I will start to think about how this can be incorporated. I would think that 2 profiles should be enough for people right now. It may take me a little while to get something like this implemented though.

Yea mine is not smart about that at all. I'm probably going to setup an internal DNS server so I can have my internal hosts resolve properly. Until then, this feature would rock

I decided to try to get the requested Swipe capabilities incorporated into the app. It looks like I was successful. I recorded this video to show it off.

That's really cool!!!
Swipe could also be used for other modules too
That would be awesome!!

Continuing on with the development, I've added in the ORP displaying. More "goodies" to come...

Yay!!

Awesome! And yes, +1 on swipe for multiple relays! that and a 'left most' swipe for memory options

I actually implemented Profiles today. I have Home and Away profile capabilities. I still have a few things left to test on it, but it appears to be working properly. The "Refresh" button changes text based on what profile you are in...Refresh - Home or Refresh - Away. If you don't have an Away profile setup, the Refresh button just shows "Refresh". You can change the profile via the Settings menu OR you can Long press on the Refresh button and it brings up a Profile Selection window that you can change the profile easily. I will see if I can get a video created and posted of this later tonight.
Be on the lookout for the next release coming soon (hopefully tomorrow). That will have Swipe and Profiles added.

Awesome!!!
No more updating IP in or out of my wifi network

Just released v0.6.1
Highlights are

• Added support for new memory locations (upcoming version 1.0 of the libraries)
• Fixed Parsing error (hopefully for good now)
• Added PH visibility toggling

Also uploaded the APK to my github account for those who do not have access to the Google Play Store.

On a side note, make sure you check out this: https://github.com/curtbinder/AndroidSt ... state=open
It lists the features that I'm working on for the app and I've also added proposed versions for the features to be released. Suggestions / Issues can be created on the github page for those who have github accounts or suggestions posted on here work as well.

Some of my label names come down but not all. What might be causing that? Also I am downloading fromt he portal, not my controller if that matters. I do not have my lables defined in my code.

thx

Yeah, I think I know the problem now. More labels have been added that I was unaware of. Those label names conflict with some of the existing parsing that I do on the tags. So that's failing with the parsing thus the downloading is not working properly. I will have to look into this and fix it.

When do you expect an update with Relay status ?

ldangelo wrote:When do you expect an update with Relay status ?

what relay status are you referring to? Are you talking about downloading the labels?

The labels don't seem to download at all when I select the download from reefangel portal option.

javisaman wrote:The labels don't seem to download at all when I select the download from reefangel portal option.

Correct. There is a bug in all versions of the app with the downloading of labels. The problem was encountered when Roberto added additional labels and sections for the controller from the portal. I have found the problem and have a fix for it. I have not released the version yet as I have a one or two more features to add to the next release. I also have to do some more testing to ensure I have everything working as desired.

Milestone 0.7 is what I'm currently working on.

Just uninstalled and downloaded and re-installed droid app. Home or away profiles all I get is "Error 23: XML SAX Parser" strange thing is that I was getting the Reef angel Webserver message when i went to http://myipaddress:2000/wifi earlier today. Now I get this in my browser.


HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Dont know if it's related. i was also working on the portal.

If you are getting that error when viewing through the web page, then it's not going to work right with the Android app. That's just telling us that the controller is not sending the XML data to the app and thus the XML parser is failing. I think the issue is with the libraries installed or with your wifi adapter.

Just to give an update on the app...

Version 0.7 is going to be released soon. Here are the highlights of it:

• fixed labels not downloading from portal
• added water level and ph expansion fields to database
• added dimming, radion, vortech, ai, io, custom variables pages (swipe)
• added ph expansion & water level displaying on status page
• added changelog displaying
• minor bug fixes and improvements

I think I will be putting up a video later that shows all the new functionality.

Ok, here's the video link....enjoy
