Avtech Room Alert 4E support?

Thanks! I managed to get it working. Not perfect but returns the 2 temp sensors I need. There is no internal humidity sensor on the 4E so may remove the humidity code as well.
For reference I modified the definitions/os.inc.php roomalert os to use the 4E mib. I then coped the 24E sensor .php and modified it to use the 4E mibs and had to change the OID from 5 to 6 (the different product code) otherwise the mibs are almost the same up until the extra sensors that are available in the 24E.
I guess my final question is will all the changes I made stick through SVN updates?
Thanks,
Scott
AVTech uses a different MIB for each product, unfortunately. So it needs some coding to be done...

Only if you submit them to us and we commit them to the repository.
"svn add" any new files to SVN and then do "svn diff" to get SVN to generate a file containing your changes.

You can look at the old ones as an example, you'll find them in includes/discovery/sensors/

I have been able to get it to discover as and AVtech device but I had to modify the roomalert discovery and poller php files to add a space to RoomAlert as the sysDescr on the 4E is "Room Alert 4E v3.1.1".
I see the 4E mibs are there as well but the temp is not getting polled properly.
Is it possible for me to make modifications to get the temp polling properly? If so where should I be looking to get the 4E MIBS working properly? I am not sure where the mappings are done etc. Is this difficult to do?
Otherwise how would I go about getting the working properly?
