Okay, time for a little showtime:
Homesh
Homesh Satellite
You install the app and after that you currently get two things.
The App has an When flowcard
A flowcard that you can trigger from the Controller with optional arguments.
Meaning, you can use any apps on the old Homey without the need for me to support it, you can just build flows on the old Homey and have it started at the Controller.
App Settings
In the App Settings you will find your pincode for pairing and your token for authentication between the devices.
The pincode is randomly generated after the app is installed and can be changed to any 4 digit number.
The pincode is used only during pairing and will give the Homesh Controller your token.
The token can be changed also, resulting in the connection with the Controller being lost.
Homesh Controller
Create a Homey (Satellite) Device
After you installed the Satellite App on the other Homey it’s time to connect the two devices.
Create a Homey (satellite) device.
You will get a list of all Homeys in your network (also the Controller itself until i have a second one to develop on).
When you select the homey that you want to control and click next, you get a pincode request:
Here you fill in the pincode set in the Homesh Satellite App Settings and press ok.
If all is well, the device will be added.
Device Settings
Not much, only the language to use for Say (Google):
The 5 (currently) flowcards (Then)
- Play Soundboard file
- Play Url (mp3 and wav BIGGER than 900 KB are supported, do not start a song of 20 minutes, you cannot stop it currently )
Works great with sending the URL from the Google Services App for Homey - Say (Google) will let the Satellite speak, based on a google services (No app required!)
- Say (Athom) Uses the default speech from athom
- Start flow with arguments.
Here you will get a dropdown/selectlist with all flownames you have used in the Satellite.
Triggering this will trigger the Satellite flow directly.
