SolarNetwork Control Toggler

Control Toggler is a helper class that uses the SolarNetwork Instruction API to request a SolarNode to set the value of a control to 1 (on) or 0 (off), and the SolarNetwork Datum Query API to track the value of the control.

The Instruction API is asynchronous and changing a control value requires the following steps:

• Enqueue instruction to set control value
• Wait for SolarNode to receive, execute, and update instruction status to Completed (or Rejected)
• Wait for SolarNode to post updated control value datum for confirmation

Control Toggler handles these steps through a simple API for setting the desired value and using a callback function to get notified when the value changes.

Some example SolarNode plugins that support on/off switching are:

• Mock Control (good for testing)
• LATA switch

• Modbus switch
