Example of turning on device 0E7986 to Full On
Send:
http://172.16.1.34/3?02620E79860F11FF=I=3
The Buffer will have
02620E79860F11FF0602500E798609D6822B11FF
Send and PLM Echoes back to the buffer:
0262 Pass through Command to PLM
0E7986 Device ID to Control
0F Flags Byte (Constant)
11 CMD1 (On)
FF CMD2 (Brightness level)
PLM Adds:
06 PLM Says got it
Once the Device responds (Could be ¼ of a second but not>3 secs)
0250 From PLM Insteon Received
0E7986 From this device
09D682 To (ID of PLM/Hub)
2B 20 = ACK + B = hop count
11 CMD1 The command the device received
FF Cmd2 The On level it will go to
Note: The timing will be such that even if you see the 0250 in the buffer you are not guaranteed
that the rest of the data is in the buffer yet.
Pretend example of a timing issue to resolve.
2:01.1 buffer has Null (just emptied it)
2:02.2 send http://172.16.1.34/3?02620102030F117F=I=3
2:03.0 ask for the buffer
2:03.5 get 02620E79860F11FF0602500E7
2:03.7 ask for the buffer again
2:03.9 get 02620E79860F11FF0602500E798609D6822B11FF
In a group command, the buffer will quickly wrap with the clean-ups so searching for the 0258 is a
little tricky since that is also a valid Partial Insteon ID.
