Any help?
Well, that is mostly because there are no instructions. But, here are some steps that should get you going, or at least on the way.
- Download the latest (0.2.4) plugin from dropbox
- Install the Phidgets Macintosh software.
- In the Phidgets preference panel, turn on the Phidgets Web Service.
- Install the plugin (just double-click it)
- In the device window create a: Phidgets -> Phidget InterfaceKit
- Select your model, 1011 2/2/2, enter the serial number and the IP Address of the machine where the 2/2/2 is connected.
- Click the Read ifKit Config button
- Click Save
- In the device window create a: Phidgets -> Phidget InterfaceKit Sensor
- Select the device you just created for the 2/2/2 interface kit
- Click Click to Continue
- Select your 1127 sensor
- Select the port the sensor is connected to (note, port numbers start with 0)
- Save the device
- Reload the Phidgets plugin.
You may need to re-open the 1127 device and go through the configuration steps again, and then restart the plugin once more.
Once that is all done, you should see the brightness value (0-1000) in the Device window State column.
You can then trigger off that value, use the Action Collection plugin to copyv the value to a variable, or whatever...
Post back if you have problems.
