|

|
||
<li>The label giving you the model name of the <em>Thing</em>, read-only,</li>
|
||
<li>The overview, giving a description of the <em>Thing</em>, coming from the ZWave database, read-only,</li>
|
||
<li>A set of controls, one per actionable <em>item</em> that has been created. You can play with the control in order to check that your device is correctly working. The name and the identifier of the <em>item</em> are read-only.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<blockquote>
|
||
|

<p>The name of the item can be modified in the channels panel.</p>

|
||
|
||
<h2 id="configuration-parameters-panel">Configuration parameters panel</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>This panel presents the configuration parameters of the device</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>The content of this panel depends on the device model.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>The use of these parameters are described in the user’s manual of the device itself.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><img src="images/add-node-26.png" alt="" /></p>
|
||
|
||
<p>When a parameter value is changed, HABmin send it to the device. A <em>pending</em> message is displayed at this time.</p>

||
<h2 id="channels-panel">Channels panel</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>This panel is the key panel to configure the <em>Items</em>, as the channels are the link between <em>Things</em> and <em>Items</em>.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><img src="images/add-node-35.png" alt="" /></p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Basically, HABmin will create one <em>Item</em> per channel.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Each channel follows the same following structure:</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><img src="images/thing-channels-1.png" alt="" /></p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Five buttons allow different actions:</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><img src="images/thing-channels-2.png" alt="" /></p>
|
||
|
||
<p>HABmin 2 creates and link automatically the needed <em>items</em> when a <em>thing</em> is created, so creating, deleting and linking action are not often used.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>To personalise item information, the <em>edit linked data</em> button opens the following window:</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><img src="images/add-node-40.png" alt="" /></p>
|
||
|
||
<p>This window allows to:</p>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>change the label, making it more informative,</li>
|
||
<li>modify the item type if needed,</li>
|
||
<li>modify the category if needed.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p>The modification are saved as soon as you select the <em>Save</em> button.</p>
