The DUMMY I/O Server is a virtual server that doesn’t actually connect to any external system, but simulates basic lighting and automation devices. It could be used for project’s development, demonstrations, and to easily implement virtual devices with complex logic connecting to actual systems.

HSYCO Configuration

Options

ID Default Values Description
discovery true true automatically lists all virtual devices in the systemtopo.txt file
false auto-detect for devices is disabled
lights 10 0 ... 10000 number of on/off light devices to generate
dimmers 10 0 ... 10000 number of dimmer devices to generate
automations 10 0 ... 10000 number of automation devices to generate

Datapoints

ID Value R/W Description
connection online R I/O Server ready
light.<n> 0 R light <n> is off
W switch off light <n>
off W
1 R light <n> is on
W switch on light <n>

1% ... 100% R the light level of dimmer <n> corresponds to the reported value
W set the light level of dimmer <n> to the specified value
autom.<n> offup R autom <n> is stopped in upper position

(set to this value 30 seconds after a 'up' command)

offdown R autom <n> is stopped in lower position

(set to this value 30 seconds after a 'down' command)

stop W stop autom <n>

0
up R autom <n> is moving upwards (opening)
W move autom <n> upwards
down R autom <n> is moving downwards (closing)
W move autom <n> downwards

User Interface

All the devices that have been added in systemtopo.txt (automatically or manually) are listed in the Project Editor and can be directly associated to button and dimmer objects.

For example, adding a slider for a dimmer requires just a few clicks and no additional EVENTS logic.
