RMS Serial and Model

Posts: 56
Hi Guys,
Just wondering how you deal with the registration of assets with Serial Number and Model Numbers as they cannot be change after registration.
Hopefully PhreaK sees this as he had suggested the use of #IF_DEFINED's but I can't seen to get that working properly.
Below is a snippet from a Projector, I pass a serial and model number to the module. Then I say, within registerasset, if they are both not '' go ahead and register... this does not work.
I want the code to obtain the model/serial before registration.
Thanks,
Cameron

Assuming its not registering at all, wait until you have the info you need then ON[vdvDeviceModule,DATA_INITIALIZED]. If you think about, it your module has not really fully initialized until after it has the serial and model numbers.
RmsMonitorCommon will trigger an asset registration when DATA_INITIALIZED goes true.
The module only registers upon an INITIALISED channel event.
Your Meta variables need to be defined as a variable and not a constant, then get the comms modules to populate.
