https://www.dropbox.com/s/9zexy8lenm4m19h/FINGSCAN-v-4-14-1.zip?dl=1 v-4-14-1

added:

FINGSCAN will now install FING (*) in "/usr/local/..." instead of "/usr/..."

That setup should then work with OS X El Capitan out of the box. !!! but I am not running El Capitan 10.10.6? !! ==> I have only tested it under Yosemite 10.10.5

added benefit: for a new install you do not need to download FING/install anything from overlookSoft.com

FING.bin version: March 12, 2013, size= 5168612 bytes, this is the most recent I found.

FINGSCAN v 4.15.1

Added
feature to link FINGscan <—> iFind (version>=1.0.60 required)

With this link FINGscan now can use information from:
FING
PING
ASUS router WiFi association info
Mother/Cookies
iFind distance
to determine if devices or groups of devices or one device in a group of devices is/are home or away and trigger the proper events

iFind link:
What it does if enabled:
iFind has a module that will “tickle”/ trigger FINGscan when a device has changed its distance to home. FINGscan in turn will then query the proper iFIND device/state to get distance to home info. It will calculate the speed and direction ( coming home or going away ) and estimate the expected arrival time. It will then set the refresh frequency of iFind of that device to 70% of the expected arrival time ( between 10 seconds and 12 minutes). When the device ( e.g. iPhone) enters home (with 50 meters of home as defined in iFind) it will use that information to trigger events ie Home (or Away if it leaves) as defined in FINGscan config.
When the device is at home or > 20km away FINGscan will revert back to iFind defaults to determine the next refresh (ie home, night schedules etc.)

From a priority point of view: If FING things that a device is home it will always use that, as it is positive identifiable info: the device answered a ping or is sending packages on your local network. It must be home. Once FING times out (no message for x minutes - as defined in FINGscan Configuration) iFIND information will take over. But also here there is a timeout you can set ie if there is no info for > xx minutes it will also ignore iFind info eg if you are on a plane etc.


How to enable:
1. in iFind in Menu/Plugin/iFind/Configure enable the FINGscan link checkbox

2. in FINGscan select iFind like in the attached screen shot:

The cool part in this that it minimizes queries between the plugins by using the “tickle” trick. It is like a trigger, but the user does not have to set anything up and adopts automatically to changes in parameters.

Thanks to Mike for reviving the iFind/iDevice functionality (We missed that for a long time!!) and for implementing the tickler.

if anyone is interested in how this work, let me know... or you can check the iFind and FINGscan plugins yourself

Re: FINGSCAN - download program

https://www.dropbox.com/s/5cr8kfssf4gvrbq/FINGSCAN-v-4-16-1.zip?dl=0

version 4-16-1

fixed:
Menu item: "reset events" did not always work, it did reset the "Events dict", but did not save to indigo and then was refreshed later with the last config in indigo

added:
a new variable folder is created: FINGscanEvents. It contains the current status of all events:
for Event1:
allHome_1 = 0/1 = are all device defined in event# 1 home
oneHome_1 =0/1 = is at least one all device defined in event# 1 home
allAway_1 =0/1 = are all device defined in event# 1 away
oneAway_1 =0/1 = is at least one all device defined in event# 1 away
.. for all 12 available Events
0= not true, 1 = true

You can use it to trigger on e.g. any change in variable (or as also available use the fingscan event in trigger) and
You can use it to check the current status of the events i.e. are all my devices home?
(which can not be done with triggers as that happens once and you cant check if a trigger fired in the past.)

v-4-16-2

fixed: critical
Event definitions where overwritten. They all were the same.

improved:
update of event variables, are updated only when changed. This reduces i/o with indigo (small impact)

v-3-16-5

No functional changes!

changes:
- "setup events" is now in the menu section and streamlined. Response time is much better and the config menu is much shorter now, deals only with static settings.
(changed form dynamic refresh of all selection boxes to static = reduced communication amount by factor 10 between indigo client and server)
- if you have one of the devices that constantly changes IP numbers (double IP#s), the log file now tells you how to switch the logging off.

V 4-16-10

fixed:
- fingscan error in Line '2811' ; error='global name 'kmMeters' is not defined'

improved:
++integration with iFind, better management of frequency of updates (not to many not to few) :
- if not at home (from FING point of view) and if last iFind update was older than 5 minutes request an update from iFind. This will catch situations where ind is on a long refresh cycle (i.e. in the evening and you leave home, nut the next iFind update is in e.g. an hour.
- reduction of frequency of updates of iFind when not needed, i.e. just done etc.
++ better loging of connection problems with Asus wifi router, incase you can not connect

V 4-16-11

fixed:
passwords with & and probably some other characters created problems. Added ' around the password.
Only a problem for versions since el capitan upgrade. i.e. fingscan was installing (copy) FING on its own in usr/LOCAL/... area
The directory /bin/.. has special protection in el capitan. and you can't even write there with "sudo" access
In the other places where the password is required it was done correctly

v 4-16-12

fixed:
the plugin assumed that the directory /usr/local/ existed. Apparently in a FRESH el-capitan install it is not the case. (thanks to John for testing it)
It will now create all necessary directories to install FING
/usr/local/ /usr/local/bin/ /usr/local/lib/ /usr/local/share/ ... .. /fing.
/etc/fing
/var/data/fing

path to FING was wrong for the report section after changes made to accommodate El Capitan.
printing details to log file now works again.

fixed:

in menu / define event,
if some entries were not made, the plugin showed an "error conversion to integer". Now all entries are checked and the user get a red label where entries are missing.
