Read only without pairing possible?

Opened this issue · 0 comments

I have 4 feeders and 1 hub but, sadly, my hub is a v2 version which is not compatible with the PetHubLocal project.
Buying a v1 version wouldn't help either since the new firmware more-or-less killed the PetHubLocal project...

For this reason I'm looking into your project because I only need it to read data from the feeders and that's exactly what your project is doing.

But in your TODO list I read "Handle multiple feeders/doors" and this is what makes me wonder, why doesn't it just work?

Isn't it just receiving data from all feeders and reporting it already?
Or will it only report data from feeders that are paired with your program? Right now all my feeders are paired with the original hub and this is ok... I just want to read the data using this project so it doesn't need any pairing.

Strangly I was not even able to find the word "pair" in your code. So I wonder where the pairing code is hidden? Since your code is supposed to support pairing according to the info..

Thanks or any info you can share in order for me to get this working.
I have basic programming skills so I hope I can modify it to make it work as I wish... ;-)
