Description

Adapter for HID devices e.g. Apple Remote

Initial Creation

This adapter was initialy created by @soef at https://github.com/soef/ioBroker.hid but not maintained any more, so we moved it to iobroker-community so that bugs could be fixed. thanks @soef for his work.

Installation

Please install bia Admin

It can be that the following additional things are needed

• prepare permissions: execute iob fix
• Install additional packages: sudo apt install libusb-1.0-0-dev
• Setting proper rights: If the device can not be opened please look at https://github.com/node-hid/node-hid#udev-device-permissions

States

There are two state groups, raw and key. the key group will only be fired, is a mapping is found.

Only one of the states xxx.double, xxx.single and xxx.long will change on an event. The state xxx.dsl gets the results .double, single or long. Action indicates down, up or repeat.

Mappings

Add or edit the mapping section in the io-package.json file to see the names of the key codes. This is not necessary, the raw data states will be created anyway.

  "mappings": {
    "26017F2A55": "AllLightsOn-(AM)",
    "26017F1867": "AllLightsOff-(Memory)",
    "26857A21DE": "OK",
    "26857A55AA": "ESC"
  },
