go controller for heliospectra s7 and s10 lights
multiplier param and MULTIPLIER environment variable are used to change the value sent to the light
channels are sequentially numbered as such in conditions file:
| channel | wavelength |
|---|---|
| channel-1 | 400nm |
| channel-2 | 420nm |
| channel-3 | 450nm |
| channel-4 | 530nm |
| channel-5 | 630nm |
| channel-6 | 660nm |
| channel-7 | 735nm |
| channel | wavelength |
|---|---|
| channel-1 | 370nm |
| channel-2 | 400nm |
| channel-3 | 420nm |
| channel-4 | 450nm |
| channel-5 | 530nm |
| channel-6 | 620nm |
| channel-7 | 660nm |
| channel-8 | 735nm |
| channel-9 | 850nm |
| channel-10 | 6500k |
Right now this utility uses telnet to control the heliospectras, however I'm looking at using the HTTP "api" that I've been able to decode.
to set intensity make a GET request (I know) to this url:
http://<ip address>/intensity.cgi?int=1000:1000:1000:1000:1000:1000:1000
AFAICT the values are just <int(channel_intensity)> joined by ":" char
for light status (I know) make a GET request to this url:
http://<ip address>/status.xml
You should get a response like this for an S7 with all channels on max:

These responses look like XML and they are sent with the 'text/xml' Content-Type header but they dont follow the XML standard at all.
My understanding of the data provided is this:
| tag | meaning | example values |
|---|---|---|
| r | wrapper value | |
| a | current time according to the light | 2020:02:23:23:56:03 |
| b | state of the schedule | Not running |
| c | the "Status" of the light | OK |
| d | light uptime | 6d 00h 13m 43s |
| e | time of last change | 2020-02-23\t23:50:00 |
| f | Last control changed by | External (UDP) |
| g | last changed by ip address | 192.168.1.200 |
| h | the type of change | Light setting |
| i | light plate temperatures | 0:43.5C,1:40.6C,2:45.0C,3:40.5C, |
| j | light intensity values | 0:1000,1:1000,2:1000,3:1000,4:1000,5:1000,6:1000,7:1000,8:1000,9:1000, |
