METHODS

Method Description
eib_items_by_id Lookup EIB_Item with the given address
new Generic EIB_Item class. This class is not instantiated directly. It is used to inherit common EIB properties
printname Item name to appear in logs etc
set_receive detected an EIB event on the bus. Update item state to reflect the value in the event !
send_write_msg generate EIB message to set a value
send_read_msg generate EIB message to read a value
receive_write_msg process a message to set a value
receive_reply_msg process a message with a reply value (read response)
receive_msg entry point from device interface. Analyse message and call appropriate receive_*_msg handler
start_read_timer set a timeout for waiting for read response
stop_read_timer disable timer
read_timeout No reply to read request. Retry or give up.
read_request send a read request, and start timer
delayed_read_request wait a while and then send a read request. If a read request is sent too soon, the EIB actuator may not have obtained a stable value, so we want to delay before sending the request.

INHERITS

EIB_Item

EIB1_Item

Method Description
decode translate EIS 1 data to state (on/off)
encode translate state to EIS 1 data

EIG1G_Item

A group of EIB1 items. Setting the value of an EIB1 group will affect all members in the group. The class is used to keep track of EIB1 group memberships. If a write message is detected, all members will be updated.

DIB2_Item

EIS 2: Dimming EIB dimmers can be controlled in three different ways:

  1. "control": brighten, dim, stop. Handled by class EIB21_Item
  2. "value": numerical value: Handled by class EIB6_Item
  3. "position": on, off. Handled by class EIB1_Item

Class EIB2_Item is a meta-item to represent dimmers, consist of the three underlying item. The main purpose is to make a dimmer appear as a single item, while the real work is done by the three underlying items.

The identifier for the EIB2_Item is composed of the concatenation of the addresses of the three underlying items, with '|' between them. For example, '1/0/90|1/0/91|1/4/1' is a dimmer with control address 1/0/90, value address 1/0/91, and position address 1/4/1.

Method Description
new create an EIB2_Item. Instantiate the three underlying items.
position return "position" sub-item
control return "control" sub-item
value return "value" sub-item
set Set EIB2 item. Parse state to determine the corresponding sub-item to call.
set_receive received an event from one of the sub_items. If it was a numerical value ("Value"), update the "Position" subitem to 'on' or 'off'. If the value was zero, also set self to 'off'. Update level (0-100) to represent dimmer position
state_level return 'on', 'off' or 'dim', depending on current setting (as obtained from "value" sub-item)

EIB2_Subitem`

A generic class for the three dimming sub-functions

Method Description
`dimmer`` return "dimmer" meta-item
set_receive forward to meta-item

EIB21_Item

Dimming sub-function "control"

Method Description
immer_timeout dimmer should have reached stable state. Issue a read request to obtain current value
set To allow adjusting dimmer value in real-time from for example web interface: If state is set to same dim/brighten value twice before dimmer timer has expired, it means "stop". For example, first 'dim' means start dimming, second means stop dimming (This behaviour is configurable via configuration parameter "eib_dim_stop_on_repeat")
set_receive if it is a 'stop' event, generate a read request for the 'Value' sub-item, to learn the actual dimmer setting

EIB22_Item

Dimming sub-function "value". Set dimmer to a given brightness level (0-100) with 8 bit resolution Values are coded according to EIS 6

Method Description
set_receive detected a "read" or "write" message on the bus. For readable actuators, don't trust the values in "write" messages, as they may not have been accepted by the actuator. So if it is a write, and the actuator is readable, generate a read request to obtain the actual value from the actuator

EIB23_Item

Dimming sub-function "position". Set dimmer to on/off. Values are coded according to EIS 1

EIB3_Item

Time

EIB4_Item

Time

EIB5_Item

EIB6_Item

"scaling". Relative values 0-100% with 8 bit resolution

Method Description
set_receive detected a "read" or "write" message on the bus. For readable actuators, don't trust the values in "write" messages, as they may not have been accepted by the actuator. So if it is a write, and the actuator is readable, generate a read request to obtain the actual value from the actuator

EIB8_Item

"forced control". 2 bit

  Enforcement  ON  + Turn Device ON  (11)
  Enforcement  ON  + Turn Device OFF (10)
  Enforcement  OFF + Turn Device OFF (00)
  Enforcement  OFF + Turn Device ON  (01)

EIB9_Item

32-bit float

EIB10_Item

16-bit unsigned integer

EIB10.1_Item

16-bit signed integer

EIB11_Item

32-bit unsigned integer

EIB11.1_Item

32-bit signed integer

EIB14_Item

8-bit signed integer

EIB14_1_Item

"scaling". Relative values 0-255 with 8 bit resolution

Method Description
set_receive detected a "read" or "write" message on the bus. For readable actuators, don't trust the values in "write" messages, as they may not have been accepted by the actuator. So if it is a write, and the actuator is readable, generate a read request to obtain the actual value from the actuator

EIB7_Item

Drive control

  Blinds, windows, etc
  Drives can be controlled in two different ways:
  1. "move": up/down
  2. "stop": stop/step movement

NB EIS7 objects may not be read, since this can cause drive movements

Method Description
set set EIB drive item. Parse state to determine the corresponding sub-item to call. Don't modify own state here -- that will be done later, when/if the sub-items call set_receive for this item.

EIB7_Subitem

Generic class for drive sub-functions

Method Description
new Instantiated with last args "driveid" the id of EIS7 item to which this subitem belongs
set_receive forward to main Drive item (EIS7 item)

EIB71_Item

Dimming sub-function "move"

EIB72_Item

Drive sub-function "stop"

EIB73_Item

Drive sub-function "step-up/step-down"

EIB15_Item

14-Byte Text Message

EIBW_Item

EIBW: Windows type of object wich uses 2 underlaying EIB1 Items (Top and Bottom) Definition as follows EIBW , GA1|GA2, Name, nameforOffOf|nameOffOn|NameOnOff|NameOnOn

Method Description
new create an EIBW_Item. Instantiate the three underlying items.
set_receive received an event from one of the sub_items.

EIBW_Subitem

Generic class for the three dimming sub-functions

Method Description
set_receive forward to meta-item

EIBW1_Item
