Press VD button, from within other VD

[kariem112 3]

I have several AV equipment connected to my HC2. Each of them as a virtual device with all remote control buttons mapped on them, and they work as expected. Now, I am trying to create a virtual device with all important functions of the various audio video equipment on them. 

 

I tried the following:

 

fibaro:call(162, "pressButton", "Button82");

 

In which 162 is the virtual device ID of the device I want to control, and "Button82" is the id of the button I would like to press. This does not work.What do I need to change to get it to work?

I didn't tried it myself but maybe you could try something like making a VD with on the General tab values:

IP Address: 127.0.0.1

TCP Port: 80

 

then in the second tab use a button lua code like:

As I mentioned, I didn't try the above code but it should give you a start to work with. I hope...

Here is example of scene that performs HTTP calls. Note, that path needs to be adjusted, by looking up the link with Firebug. This code works only in scenes in V4 software, VDs have different Lua environment.
