Hi,

My sat receiver has no discrete IR codes for power but it is possible to control via a browser with the following command:

[Link: receiver_IP]{powerstate_number}

* 0 = Standby
* 1 = Deepstandby
* 2 = Reboot
* 3 = Restart Enigma2
* 116 = Wake-up

Would it be possible through a ProntoScript to send this HTTP line to the Sat receiver ?

Thank you.

Yes as long as it doesn't need an encrypted password (it's more complicated than that, but I don't grok it enough to explain it)

See the http example in the developer guide. Or search forum for tcpsocket

OK, had "another" Read of the FM and came up with this:

var socket = new TCPSocket(true);
socket.connect("192.168.1.13", 80, 3000);
socket.write("/web/powerstate?newstate=0");
socket.close();

and an Asynchronous version:

var socket = new TCPSocket(false);
socket.onConnect = function()
{
socket.write("/web/powerstate?newstate=0");
socket.close();
};
socket.onClose = function()
{
};
socket.onIOError = function(e)
{
label = "Error: " + e;
};
socket.connect('192.168.1.13',80,3000);

Unfortunately, none of them work :-( and there is no indication of script errors on _PS_DEBUG_. Is there any other way to check what the sat receiver response is?

When I send _http://192.168.1.13/web/powerstate?newstate=0 from a browser it works but not via the above prontoscripts on a TSU9400.

Thank you.

try

socket.write("GET /web/powerstate?netstate=0 HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n")

You might want to invest in the book "Webmaster in a Nutshell" from O'Reilly to get a better understanding of the HTTP protocol which you have to use. Web browsers hide all this stuff from you that you need to know if writing raw strings to a TCP socket.

Yes! That works. Thank you very much.

For anyone that needs a workaround for discrete power on/off IR codes for a dreambox you can use the IR power toggle to power on and the following prontoscript to place the receiver in standby.

var socket = new TCPSocket(false);
socket.onConnect = function()
{
socket.write("GET /web/powerstate?newstate=0 HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n")
socket.close();
};
socket.onClose = function()
{
};
socket.onIOError = function(e)
{
label = "Error: " + e;
};
socket.connect('dreambox_IP',80,3000);


Thank you once again to MVis.

Cheers.

Can you please post the rest of the ip protocol of the Dreambox Receiver,
i would like full control of all functions by ip.

Thank you,,

Kevin

Kevin,

You may want to send him an email (addy on profile). You posted to a rather old thread and the user only has 12 posts.

i already did,,

Thanks..
