Sender Id and options for spoofing

[Skeen]

Hi,

I installed the addon, and configured a rocker switch via the discovery. I can see the state of the buttons are being picked up nicely, and everything seems to work.

Currently the rocker switch is controlling a light-bulb, and clicking the switch turns it on or off (Channel A). Changing the state in the web-interface does nothing.

I believe that I am supposed to configure the sender_id on the rocker switch, such that a unique device id can be generated, and then program this ID into my receiver / actuator, which actually controls the light bulb.

• Is my understanding on this correct? - This is the intended way to configure the system?

The reason I'm asking, is that I (perhaps wrongly) assumed that it would just work out of the box. That the USB300 would spoof / send the device id from the rocker switch, and send an identical message to the one generated by toggling the switch.

• Is there a reason why this is not the case? - Is it not technically feasible / impossible to do?

I would argue, that spoofing would be a reasonable feature (assuming it's possible), as it would remove the burden of reconfiguring / reprogramming receivers to accept the new device id.
