Preparing a Device

For this Driver to receive messages, users must first configure the Watts SDK plug-in.

In this plug-in's settings, users must add the IP address of the computer where this Driver is used on the list of allowed clients.

Also, users must perform a mapping and assign an ID to all Flux devices that send messages to this Driver. These devices are:

Detectors

Communication detectors

Detector groups

Scenarios

Servers

Characteristics on Zones

 

No mapping means no messages. When a mapping is not configured for a specific detector, the Watts SDK plug-in does not send any messages from that device.

This Driver supports event IDs when enabled in the Watts SDK plug-in. In this case, each event has a unique linked ID. This feature is optional and, when disabled, this Driver shows NULL for event IDs, and therefore users cannot use the REQUEST_CONFIRM_EVENT command.

More information about mapping and additional configuration options can be found on the Flux Watts SDK Plug-in Manual.
