there's a limit to how many fields you can subscribe to

It seems that only the first 9 fields to which I subscribe after the dishwasher is powered on will ever actually report changes. For example, if I register 10 fields and the 9th is doorCount, then opening and closing the dishwasher sends a doorCount change event. If I then move it to the 10th, then it still works. If I then power-cycle the dishwasher and subscribe to the exact same list, with doorCount 10th, then I don't get doorCount notifications.

This might be a lower-level bug than just with the gea-plugin-dishwasher library.

@Hixie There is a limit to the number of subscriptions. In the current version of released software it is 21. This was changed in our production software from 10 about a year ago. For the behavior you describe above, even though you unsubscribed and then resubscribed, it likely got the same spot in our subscription list. That would be the difference between it publishing as the 9th and 10th element.

@palisaide we should look into the 10th element not publishing.

By software, are you referring to the firmware in the device? Or is this something I can update?

I can live without subscriptions (I just have my software continually polling all the various fields), but it'd be nicer if the subscriptions worked. :-)

Ahhh, yes. Firmware in the dishwasher.
