How to make zipabox interact with my zipatile????
Need Answer
I have a zipabox is a zipatile What settings Needs to be done for both work together ??
Has anyone already done it?
No connection
Real-time notifications may not work
This most likely is the cluster functionality. You will need to upgrade both controllers with PRO function and then follow the guide https://community.zipato.com/knowledge-base/article/how-to-create-a-cluster

A doubt. After the cluster added in my zipatile gateway will be my controller, and my Zipabox as the extension drive. right?
Can I import the rules from zipabox to zipatile? Or am I going to have to create all the zipabox rules in zipatile?

Well, apparently the cluster is a virtual controller that merges both controllers. This way no controller will be extension of another but all will be merged together.
No reason to import rules, everything should be merged together in one "virtual" controller.

I think it depends what you want to achieve and if you are willing to pay the PRO license. If for example you need only to use the touch controls and buttons from zipatile into your zipabox, you could create a virtual meter in the zipabox and asign a different value to each gesture, then in your zipabox you could make a rule saying something like IF virtualmetervalue > 0 THEN do something SET virtualmetervalue=0. Until cluster gets a bit more polished I'm unsure of creating a cluster, I have read in the forum some issues with controllers in clusters, such as shedulers not working.
This is how I send ZT touch control commands to my zipabox as of right now.

Could you show me an example @Alberto Macias ? It would help me a lot.

Willias,
No problem, first go to your zipabox and create a virtual meter, this device will add you one device with several meters, you can name one for example "ZipatileInterlocks" on device manager, also while you are there copy it's URL from the settings screen, you can test modifying its value pasting that link into your web browser and at the end adding a numeric value, for example 5, should look something like this;
https://my.zipato.com/zipato-web/remoting/attribute/set?serial=YOURBOXSERIAL&apiKey=YOURDEVICEAPIKEY&value12=5
Now go to your zipatile and create a rule like the one attached, configuring the desired events to some numeric values, example 1=1 finger touch, 2=2 finger touch, etc. Use POST HTTP request puzzles to change the meter to the desired value based on the event. See rule "R1".
Now go to your zipabox and create a new rule, should look something like attached example "R2". Basically whenever the virtual meter's value is greater than 0 this rule will be run, then using IF commands you can compare if it's equal to 1, 2, etc. Do something within the IF statement and then set the meter to 0 again.
