Display all Insteon Events with Visual Basic 6

There are a lot of events that you can receive in Visual Basic. To learn what they are, we have made this simple snippet of code.

What it does is create an event sub for each of the SmartHome Device Managers events. Then you can simply run this code and watch events fly by. After a while, you'll get an idea of which events are available and can start writing your own code.

Start with a blank Form. Add a listbox to it called ListBox1. In the form, paste the following code (warning: you will have to remove the line breaks if you copy and paste from this HTML page, instead, get it from here)

 

Option Explicit
Dim WithEvents sm As SDM3Server.SDM3

Private Sub Form_Load()
Set sm = New SDM3Server.SDM3
End Sub

Private Sub sm_OnButtonTapEvent(ByVal buttonID As Integer)
lstInsteon.AddItem buttonID

Private Sub sm_OnConnectedAndReady()
lstInsteon.AddItem "CNR"

lstInsteon.AddItem eventID

Private Sub sm_OnINSTEON(ByVal eventID As Integer, ByVal fromID As String, ByVal toID As String, ByVal flags As Integer, ByVal cmd1 As Integer, ByVal cmd2 As Integer, ByVal extendedData As String)
