Help with serial binding rule

Setup, Configuration and Use Scripts & Rules
1

Okay, have openHAB installed on Ubuntu Server via apt-get.
User open is added to the dialout group.

When I manually enter the command in the terminal it all works fine.

echo -e “SBI01O01” > /dev/ttyUSB0

My Rule looks like this:

rule “Output1”
when
Item Output1 received command
then
switch(receivedCommand) {
case 1 : sendCommand (ShinyBowSerial, “SBI01O01”)
case 2 : sendCommand (ShinyBowSerial, “SBI02O01”)
case 3 : sendCommand (ShinyBowSerial, “SBI03O01”)
}
end

Sitemap:

Selection item=Output1 label=“Kitchen Music” icon=“music” mappings=[1=Squeeze, 2=Radio, 3=Chromecast]

Items:

String ShinyBowSerial “ShinyBow” { serial=“/dev/ttyUSB0” }
Switch ShinyBow “ShinyBow Power”
Number Output1

In Debug mode when I execute one of the numbers it shows Executing Rule Output 1
but then nothing.

Is my rule correct?

Thanks josh

I can’t answer your specific question, but I am working on configuring a Shinybow SB8804LCM 8x8 audio matrix switcher. I am using an IP to serial converter (digi portserver TS16), using the TCP/UDP binding.

It looks like Josh’s switcher uses v2 of the code (with 2 digits after the commands, while mine uses v3 (with 3 digits after the commands).

It is slow going because there are so many command combinations. There is probably a better way using a script. I think I might be able to use groups in my items, but I haven’t figured that out yet either. Hopefully, this helps others get started configuring a switcher.

So far, I am able to turn power on and off, and select inputs for three zones. I am still trying to figure out volume settings and parsing the feedback from the unit.

I’ve moved to CBus audio switcher at the moment so the Shinybow is on the back burner but I might come back to it if I need more inputs (which I doubt).

I rewrote my configuration for the Shinybow 8804LCM, using this as a template https://community.openhab.org/t/monoprice-6-zone-audio-amp-items-sitemap-rules/1693 Thank you @bartus

This still needs some work with parsing the feedback.

@jacksteraz, that’s awesome, I’m glad my post helped you with your setup!

If I may add a suggestion, I noticed you removed the Thread::sleep(1000) statements from your rules. I had to add those to my rules, to allow the serial binding to send all of its outputs to the amp, including the status query, and then allow it some time to fully receive the status message from the amp, before parsing using RegEx. I’m not sure if the device you’re interfacing with has similar timing issues, but keep the delay in mind if you come across any issues with parsing status.

Good luck!
