Question: Possibility to use KNX Address/UUID as Serialnumber

Open carp3-noctem opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Following Background:

Currently all devices overhanded by your Plugin have Build-31.5.2021, 12:29:48 as serial number so i guess this is the latest pluginbuild date and timestamp.

But in the config each individual Device gets a UUID, is it possible to use the Description / UUID instead?

It would bring the following benefit: In use of the App Controller for Homekit it is possible to make a Backup of the complete Home.app Setup the devices get sorted by their Serialnumber, but all of the overhanded devices are now having the same Serial, which lead to a non working recovery for such a use case.

Is it highly complicated to switch that?

Thanks in advance and Kind Regards

Sure. When I find the time I can make that an configurable option.
