Re: 3rd Party Local API - Beta Testers/Contributers Wanted

Had a quick look at the code, biggest thing I noticed (and I know you have not been taking this into account yet) is there are going to be problems with state handling between clients. I know your plan was just to feed responses back to them all, but picture this situation : client 1 says arm client...

Re: 3rd Party Local API - Beta Testers/Contributers Wanted

Yeah I know how to use git, have mainly just downloaded snapshots, more familiar with svn to actually work on code as a group. I would like to hear mikep's comments on this as well since he is also working on something like this. If there was some way we could unify the api thats exposed between the...

Re: Bug Report - Envisalink 3

I wouldn't mind an official contact there as well, I have noticed a few things myself such as when you connect a fresh socket, sometimes there are leftover responses that need to be pulled out, on a tcp stream that part should be stateful at least.

Re: 3rd Party Local API - Beta Testers/Contributers Wanted

PS - I was going to write my version in C and saw you had started in python so I figured what the heck I will give it a shot. I have done a bit of python coding with plpython for postgres embedded code but never too much outside of that. Mainly C over the years, but I am pretty impressed with how fa...

Re: 3rd Party Local API - Beta Testers/Contributers Wanted

As far as what to filter and what to assume a client will do - I have been programming a long time and whatever you assume would be reasonable is never true, whatever you assume is the worst, there is always something worse that comes up. My advice is keep things as flexible as you can and aim for e...

Re: 3rd Party Local API - Beta Testers/Contributers Wanted

Keep in mind there is a fair amount of state you need to track when doing the fan out proxy everyone is interested in. eg: - you need to keep track of each client logging in - you need to track the timestamp format they ask for - you need to track if any client goes into master or installer mode and...

I'd suggest changing your firewall rules to a per ip blocking and then figure out whose ip is at fault rather than allowing one rogue piece of software to take the feature down for everyone.

Re: SMS to WindMobile

Just put that for your email address, its not sms at all directly just email using the carrier's sms gateway.


Beware of the Roger's and their derivative carriers (fido etc) - you have to pay an extra $5/month in order to get sms through that sort of gateway (which is robbery).

Re: EVL-3 and 2 DSC Keypads

You don't have to worry about it you can physically wire it to the keybus anywhere, what partition it sends codes for is just software and can be determined each time you enter a code/command.

Re: The mobile link for older phones is no longer working fo

eyez-on guys - just an observation here - when people are relying on a portal page as an integral part of their security system, problems like this are what drive people to insist on a local run version as well. Keep in mind if they are arming and disarming using some features of your website and it...
