Description

eISCP protocol documentation (PDF0: http://goo.gl/Aa1W8F

What's inside?

It will include three nodes:

'eiscp-controller' : a unique CONFIG node that holds connection configuration for eiscp and will acts as the encapsulator for eiscp access. As a node-red 'config' node, it cannot be added to a graph, but it acts as a singleton object that gets created in the the background when you add an 'eiscp' or 'eiscp-device' node and configure it accordingly.

-- 'eiscp-out' : eiscp output node that can send eiscp, so it can be used with function blocks.

-- 'eiscp-in': eiscp listener node, who emits flow messages based on activity on the eiscp device.

-- payload contains:

--- string data - REQUIRED

Usage

According to official documentation: http://nodered.org/docs/getting-started/adding-nodes.html

Sending Raw data

It is possible to send a raw data command, set msg.raw to the command you want to send. If msg.raw is set, this will overwrite any msg.payload, and it will send the command in raw format.

Example: msg.raw = 'NPR03' (this will select and play the 3rd item in your internet radio favorites)

Examples

Control your device using Amazon Alexa

1. Drag 'Alexa Local'

2. Drag 'Function' and configure with appopriate command

Command list available here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tillbaks/node-eiscp/master/eiscp-commands.json
