Create instance of com.fibaro.textLabel fails

[747 18]

Im trying to create a child that should handle text (Status) but it just wont work..

 

Class:

class 'TextLabel' (QuickAppChild)

function TextLabel:__init(device)

    QuickAppChild.__init(self, device)

    self:debug("textlabel init")

    self:debug("Initialized child device for Textlabel: " .. self.name)

end

 

CreateChild:

local Opmode = self:createChildDevice({

        name = "Melcloud Operational Mode",

        type = "com.fibaro.textLabel"

    }, TextLabel)

 

initChildren:

self:initChildDevices({

        ["com.fibaro.textLabel"] = TextLabel,

        ["com.fibaro.temperatureSensor"] = Temperature,

        ["com.fibaro.multiLevelSensor"] = MultiLevel,

    })

 

Any idea why this wont work?

The other 2 (Temperature and MultiLevel) works

 

 

This is the error i get:
./quickApp.lua:432: attempt to index a nil value (local 'child')

Seems com.fibaro.textLabel doesnt work as expected but i got a suggestion to use multilevelSensor instead and use "unit" which seems to work..

 

Since our QuickApp children will change ID´s if we, for example, add another child and need to re-create all children, is there a way to get a childs value by using its property name instead of ID from a scene?
