I recently upgraded to HS3 ver 368.

What is the purpose of the Labs Tab in Setup?

Arduino Sketch Download

Hello,
I have started experimenting with the Arduino plugin and have a rather basic question. Do you need to define the pins that you are going to use in the HS Arduino plugin configuration page BEFORE downloading the Sketch?
Thanks,
David

Cannot Ping Any Network Device In BLLAN

$
0
0
Just installed BLLAN on my Hometroller SEL, and have tried to set up several devices on my home network in it. Not one single device shows online, despite the fact that they are all up and running, and can be pinged from a W10 workstation on the same network.

I have tried different types of devices including workstations, switches, and even one of my Z-Net units. I can Putty into the SEL and ping the devices in question from the command line, so I do not believe that there is anything at the SEL blocking pings.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone out there have experience of using a Z-Wave repeater to extend the range of their Z-Wave network here in the UK? I saw the Aeon one advertised, but with a bid price variation. Any advice on it, or other devices?

Many thanks!

WD200+ Dimmer - Last Level ????

$
0
0
I'm trying out the WD200+ Dimmers, and I need to set the dim level to the last level it was set at like I do on my Cooper dimmers. Last level works locally at the dimmer, however there is no last level selection on the pull down list when creating an event.

What am I missing or will these dimmers get supported for last level in the near future?

I'm running the following FW versions

HS3 - HS3 Pro Edition 3.0.0.422 (Linux)
Z-Wave - 3.0.1.202
WD200+ - Version: 4.61 (ZDK 6.71.1) Firmware: 5.9 Hardware: 255


Thanks,
PCK (Pete)

DIY a combo ZWave and Zigbee controller

This will be a sort of ZNet like device except for using Zigbee and ZWave.

I do not use wireless or bluetooth on my RPi's today so may go with a Rock64 to be able to run Ubuntu 16.04 64 bit.

- RPi2-3 with case and power supply
or
- Rock64 2Gb with case and power supply - found out the Rock64 will fit in an RPi case with a little mod to the power piece - making it a little larger.
You access all the connectors including sdcard, audio, lan and usb with a regular pi case.

Note these are the same price today.

- ZWave GPIO card
- Zigbee GPIO card
- POE power splitter

RPi OS
- Stretch

or

Rock64 OS
- Ubuntu 16.04 64 bit

is there going to be new updates to this plugin???

Fibaro RGBW sunset simulation.

The following script simulates the sunrise, should just need to change the device numbers to match your device numbers. With current settings it takes about 10 minutes to run. It isnt the cleanest code but it gets the job done. The core of the code is borrowed from billt's code he posted earlier. Edit: Sorry that should have said sunrise NOT sunset

Repeating announcement after adding audio file

$

Hi Dirk, since I have added an audio file to be played before the TTS announcement as seen below, I am getting duplicate announcements, I have the debug available, if you would like to see it ? PM or emailed ?

Speak string:

C:\Program Files (x86)\HomeSeer HS3\wave_files\beep.mp3|<voice required='Name=Microsoft Zira Desktop'>Vehicle entering driveway.

The mp3 file path and the pipe character are the only additions to this action that had been running without issues for years.

(The event is also only triggering once)

Any thoughts ?

Thanks,
Mike

ArduinoAPI & DHT11 Not Updating

$
0
0
Hello,
I am trying to get the Ardunio to read the input of a DHT11 (temp & humidity). There are some forum subjects on it already, so I did the best I could to duplicate them. I will be the first to admit, I am not a programmer. So, I set up everything, the Arduino w/ Ethernet has no problem connecting to HomeSeer, the Keep Alive log outputs scroll continuously by, but I never get any readings back from the DHT11. To me, it appears that the sketch program never falls into the loop to actually read the measurements. I have tried to alter the "if" conditions so that the loops are accessed, but, nothing. I have attached screenshots, log output, the sketch file for reference. At this point, I am not sure if it is some hardware issue, wrong libraries, or what.
I have HS3 running on a Pi w/ Raspian, the 147 version of the Arduino plugin. the signal pin of the DHT11 is an input on A0, and I think the values should be displayed in Input 3 and 4 of the devices. If someone has 5 minutes to take a look and tell me what noob thing I am overlooking, I would appreciate it. Also, what sketch command can I use to write a line to the log? That would help a lot to determine what is going on with the program.
Thanks,
David

Hi,

Is there any way to set geofency in IPhone to always get accès to cellular connection whenever I put my phone in plane mode , or if I turn off cellular data?
I am looking to be able to turn off cellular data on my GF phone and be able to get the geofency update at the same time.
..
That would permet us to turn off all the lights etc in the house when both of us are not home. She do not have a lot à data on her phone plan.

Is there a way to do this? Thanks

Multiple Locations - One Account

With Ecobees in two locations (and two plug-in instances) on the same Ecobee account, how does the plug-in account authorization work? I can authorize each instance, but it seems to displace the previous one. Does this mean I need to set up two Ecobee accounts?

Translating events from HS2 to HS3

A couple of questions about creating HS3 events.

1) I am not sure how to use the "Type" field in HS3. It is a dropdown, with no preset values

2) The IF statement for events only has time related trigger selections from the dropdown (sunrise, sunset, time of day, etc.). A lot of the trigger functions I am used to using in HS2 are not in the dropdown. How do I select a trigger like device state changes?

HSPI_Wemo has stopped working

Hello again, every few days I have an issue where the lights will stop responding to commands from HS, and in the log will be an entry that says "Plugin Wemo is not responding but it is still running, not restarting yet". It considers it as running even though it has actually crashed, while waiting for me to click ok on the Windows "stopped working" dialog box in order to restart the plugin. In the event viewer, I get two error entries - the first is a .NET Runtime error, with the following information:

Fibaro Dimmer 2 FGD-212 status not reporting

Hi all

I have several Fibaro dimmers I'm trying to add. The older ones work fine, but the newer dimmers (Dimmer 2, or FGD-212) don't seem to report their status. It just appears as "Unknown"

They do respond to commands and work appropriately otherwise, though.

Is there something simple I'm missing?
