lu_sdata and device category

Apps & Remote Access Unmaintained

I have the following devices that I would like to control/monitor from AutHomation: -
DEVICETYPE_RELAY “urn:schemas-micasaverde-com:device:Relay:1”

Currently they come up with “?” and in lu_sdata have a device category “11” (DEVICE_CATEGORY_GENERIC_IO) which is not supported.

I though the easiest solution would be to change the device category to “3” (DEVICE_CATEGORY_SWITCH)

luup.attr_set("category_num","3",k)

While this changed category_num the device category in lu_sdata remains “11”.

{ "name":"Module 02:Zone 1", "altid":"0201", "id":421, "category":11, "subcategory":0, "room":4, "parent":409, "status":"0" },
Am I missing something and if I did manage to change it would it register correctly in AutHomation?

Found, looks like it was inherited from the parent. I changed that and nNow device category comes up as “3”.

All seems to be OK not sure what I did ???

Theory: your browser was caching the old sdata output, and was misleading you when in fact you’d already successfully changed it.
