OK. I am starting out with the Homeworks plugin.
First off, the sales/marketing literature leaves out an important detail (or at least buries it deep enough that I missed it before spending the cash).
It only downloads and installs the devices from the system over Ethernet and not serial. Which means that it only works if you have a p5 based Homeworks system. In other words, if you have a slightly older Homeworks system, the plugin won't set anything up for you automatically.
Which means that you need to get everything setup manually (or at least so I assume). But how do I do it? I am assuming that I can still use the plugin if I can just get it setup...
When I create a new device, it asks for a housecode/unitcode. These seems to range from A-z for housecoce and 1-99 for unitcode. How in the word do these values correspond to a homeworks codes like [1:1:0:8:2] which is how I know Homeworks addresses.
Help?!?
