Help wanted: Decipher command/response for getting number of paired devices

[mulcmu]

Gdo responds to a Command 0x307 sent from ratgdo with Command 0x308. The 0x308 response appears to contain the number of paired devices in byte2. When 0x307 is issued with non-zero nibbles, it appears a subset of the paired devices is returned:

• 0 total number of paired devices is returned.
• 1 total wireless push button remotes
• 2 total wireless keypads
• 3 total wireline devices
• 4 total myQ (speculation)

I don't have any myQ accessories to pair so help is needed to see if and where they are included in the 0x308 response. Below yaml can be added to the button: block to collect the 0x308 data with logging set to VERBOSE to collet the data. The command for clearing memory has a similar structure, so this will support adding ability to clear paired devices by ratdgo.

        - lambda: !lambda |-
            id($id_prefix).send_command( (ratgdo::Command) 0x307, 1);
        - delay: 300ms
        - lambda: !lambda |-
            id($id_prefix).send_command( (ratgdo::Command) 0x307, 2);
        - delay: 300ms
        - lambda: !lambda |-
            id($id_prefix).send_command( (ratgdo::Command) 0x307 ,3); 
        - delay: 300ms
        - lambda: !lambda |-
            id($id_prefix).send_command( (ratgdo::Command) 0x307 ,4); 
        - delay: 300ms
        - lambda: !lambda |-
            ESP_LOGW("ratgdo", "############### END Get Paired Devices #############");

After flashing new code with above changes, connect to logs over wireless and share 0x308 the response output here along with details of the connected devices.

I can confirm that nibble 4 represents the number of MyQ devices paired. I did a factory reset and it showed 0, then added a MyQ bridge and it shows 1.

[mariusmuja]

We should add this to the Sync step and present it in the diagnostics section.

[mulcmu]

Superb! Thanks for confirming.

I will roll this into #149 with functionality to clear memory as well. I was thinking to implement both the get() and clear() operations as a service back to HA. Accidental activation of the clear() would be undesirable so putting it in a service call seems like a good spot to make usage deliberate. Not an operation I would expect users to put in an automation. A new ratgdo event to trigger when additional device is learned would be useful.

[mulcmu]

Merged in #149.

[mwaterbu]

Is there a simple way to call query_paired_devices(), or see a breakdown in the log of the counts/types of paired devices without needing to add all the sensors (which were removed due to high memory usage)?

The Web UI Documentation shows a button to call this query, but I don't see it in the actual UI.
