Control muuv tables with an command line tool

• Open the frontend controller
• Solder a 3-Pin cable to RX,TX and GND
• Connect RX,TX and GND to an USB-> Uart controller

The basic wiring has the disadvantage that only the UART-Controller can control the table and the muuv-device is disfunctional. It can be fixed with an relay connected to RTS line of the UART which breaks the RX line. It is important that the relay is high trigger.

• Checkout the repo
• Install Python 3.6
• Install python-serial and python-click
• Add the following to your .bashrc

alias muuvctl="/path/to/muuvctl/muuvctl.py"
complete -W "--debug --port get goto --follow" muuvctl

Move the table to position 80:

muuvctl goto 80

Get current position of the table:

muuvctl get

Get live position of the table:

muuvctl get --follow

The protocol is not fully known.

The table sends the following for its position:

b'\x98'
b'\x98'
b'\x03' <- can be b'\x00' as well
b'\x03' <- can be b'\x00' as well
b'O' <- position ord(pos)
b'O' <- position ord(pos)

To move the table send the following:

b'f'  > 102
b'\x00' > 0 (no move) 1 (up) 2(down)
b'\x00' > 0 (no move) 1 (up) 2(down)
b'\xd8' > 216
b'\xd8' > 216

There is no known command yet to move the table to an specific position. You need to send up or down until the table reaches the desired position, then send stop.
