Question about READ #115

Closed deejonz closed 6 years ago

deejonz commented 6 years ago

Hello, this is more a question: if I run the diagnostics in the ETS showing all telegrams online, why do I see only WRITE packets when I turn on/off the lights, but I never see any READ telegram? How does this library know if the lights are ON or OFF when I open the homekit app after a while without READ telegrams? Thanks.

If you look at the readme, you'll see that you can define which readrequests homebridge-knx can issue at startup.
During runtime, no more READs are issued (unless otherwise manually defined in a custom accessory handler - I heard of people messing with that 😄 )
