Re: Vulnerability and weak encryption ciphers

Personally I access Domoticz via a VPN into my home network. My setup is not security focused, I have Domoticz running as the root user so I would never consider making it directly accessible via the internet. Even if it wasn't running as the root user, I still would not make it directly accessible ...

Hey folks, I've signed up with a new electricity retailer in Australia called PowerClub , I noticed they have an app to track the electricity spot price in kWh and alert if its above a set threshold.

Re: Fitbit Aria WiFi Scales Weight Bash Script

Sorry I no longer use this script, I haven't used it in the last year or so.

I'm guessing the issue may be related to not running it as a bash script?

Are you starting the script using sh scriptname.sh?

Try ./scriptname.sh for testing.

Z-Wave or Zigbee battery operated LED light

Does anyone know of a battery operated Z-Wave or Zigbee LED Light that I can stick inside a cupboard?

I don't want automatic motion, the goal is to have the light turned on by Domoticz if certain conditions are met.

Re: Install a new server

For my setup, generally if the application needs USB pass-through or multiple network adapters I use a VM, otherwise I use containers. I gave my Domoticz VM 4gb of memory in Proxmox which I think is heaps. You will probably also want to enable memory ballooning (so the VM hands back un-used memory ...

Re: Install a new server

I'm pretty sure I would have previously mentioned it but you need to setup a Virtual Machine in Proxmox and manually install Debian via an ISO. The reason for this is that you can set to pass-through a USB device to a virtual machine. Even if you manage to find a way to pass through to the container ...

Re: MQTT - battery percentage level without themperature update?

What I do is when a device only reports its battery level I store it in Node-Red and then when a temperature level is reported I also send the previously received battery reading (or latest if its available). You can code a rule if you want to only send the battery reading with temperature if the ...

Re: Moving to Intel Nuc from Raspberry

Automatic charting for device battery levels (Feature request)

We're already collecting battery data for Z-Wave and many Zigbee devices.

Is it possible to add a chart for each device that shows the battery levels over time on the log page?

Example for a motion sensor:

Re: What is the current status of Z-Wave in the latest beta?

About a year ago I abandoned OpenZwave and replaced it with HomeSeer (because their implementation of Z-Wave is Z-Wave certified and in my opinion the best I've ever seen). I've got a node-red flow that sends it to MQTT and then into Domoticz. The Node-Red flow simply matches control by device names ...

Re: Zigbee2mqtt firmware reflash

EddyG I recently upgraded to a CC2652R. suggest you look into it.

In my opinion there is a noticeable improvement in device responsiveness and definitely range.

Supports 50 direct children and about 200 total devices.
