Double sending

[wpiman]

I have set up my Global Cache and learned all my IR codes. However, when I send a command; I get double commands. For example, I select 6 and I get 66 on the cable. Seems to hold true for all the buttons.

I am looking through my IR files-- and there is an example of one below. Is there something in there causing it? Should the 1:2 be a 1:1?

[MENU] sendir,1:2,1,38461,1,1,345,172,19,173,19,86,19,86,19,173,19, 173,19,86,19,86,19,86,19,86,19,86,19,86,19,86,19,86,19,173,1 9,173,19,86,19,1184,345,86,19,3384,345,86,19,3384,345,86,19, 3384,345,86,19,3846

No, the 1:1 and 1:2 is the Global Cache connector address. In the sample you provided, the count is set to 1.

sendir,1:2,1,38461,1,1,345,172,19,173,19,86,19,86,19,173,19, 173,19,86,19,86,19,86,19,86,19,86,19,86,19,86,19,86,19,173,1 9,173,19,86,19,1184,345,86,19,3384,345,86,19,3384,345,86,19, 3384,345,86,19,3846 

sendir,<connectoraddress>,<ID>,<frequency>,<count>,<offset>,<on1>,<off1>,<onN>,<offN> ... 

connectoraddress=1:2
ID=1
frequency=38461
count=1
offset=1

I suggest you contact Global Cache support and ask them why your learned IR commands are causing duplicate commands once sent though the Global Cache device. I believe Global Cache has a program you can use to test learned IR.

Actually, I looked at the log, and it appears that Homeseer is sending it twice.

If I use HSTouch on my Android phone using the default screen, it is completely repeatable. I think it might actually be an issue with HSTouch. I'll try to deploy the default xml to one of our iPhones and see if it is just an Android issue.

I thought I saw the issue using the web server... but I can't repeat it now. Maybe it is just an HSTouch issue.

Hello. I used UltraGCIR HSPI and HSTouch with my Android phone and never experienced this behavior. How do you have the HSTouch button configured?

Well, I am using the default Android XML that comes with HSTouch by default-- so I didn't configure the button-- it just comes that way.

I hit two buttons-- here is my log.

It looks like you have HSTouch configured to send the command twice. I have the HSTouch actions configured as follows:

Under Element Properties:
Actions > Actions When Released

Then when the Action Editor dialog displays, I select Current Actions > Control A HomeSeer Device, then under HomeSeer: Control a HomeSeer Device properties > Misc:

Action Type = HomeSeer: Control a HomeSeer Device
Device = {I select the Global Cache Device I want to control}
Command = {I select the button I want to control}

Can you confirm this is how you have the button configured?

Using the default XML file-- I don't really know how to tell how the button is configured.

At some point, I will probably generate a custom Android interface and I'll generate the buttons as shown.
