Activate an Output (relay) via TCP/IP API

I just submitted this to 4o3a support, and I'm posting it here because you guys are a lot quicker than they are, if they respond at all :(


I see how i can get a list of the configured outputs here:


https://github.com/4o3a/genius-api-docs/wiki/Antenna-Genius-TCPIP-output


How can I activate one of them? That is, how do I trigger the relays like the Antenna Genius does with the UI.


Thank you!

    I figured it out - wireshark to the rescue.

    C#|output set <relay option/output #> active=0|1

    for an active group. If you want to specify the group,

    C#|output set <relay option/output #> group=# active=0|1

    I also got excellent response from Marko at 4o3a on this.

    Groups and Outputs have ID's independent of each other. There is no need to specify a group when activating an output.

    Working my way thru "sub relay" now.

    If you are doing Node Red, I have a flow I did for another ham to control his four square using the OM module.

    Thanks Dave. This is a .NET WinForms app. It monitors DXLab's Commander for radio updates and tells the AG when to change antennas. One of them is a 4-SQR so I'd like to change direction without using the AG UI.

    I'm so close!

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
