Ledpanel for monitoring the Domoticz-status of important Kaku switches?

Post by Awst6000 »

Hi,

In this post I saw a Led monitor:
http://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopic ... 8f470#p447

Do more people have something like this? Where can I buy this and how can I get this to work with Domoticz?
I'd like to see red/orange/green/off/blinking status Leds for important Domoticz switches.

Edit:
It looks like I need a PiFace:

Unfortunately no response yet :-)

The purpose of this Ledpanel is for example a warning light when windows are opened and it begins to rain.
Or the frontdoor is unintentionally left open for more than a certain time. Things like that.

Alternatives could be in combination with a special mailbox:

Hi,
I found this:

I mailed the vendor if he ships to Holland too.
I'll update this thread when I have more info.

I've used the Pi-Stop Traffic Light LEDs with success in Domoticz.

These are three LED's Red Amber Green mounted on a small Traffic light shaped pole that plugs directly into the PI's GPIO ports (all necessary resistors are built in). They are meant for, and are great for, educational use but work equally well as indicators. I use mine to show. amongst other things) the power usage in the house with Red being an abnormal load for over 20 minutes (meaning I have probably left something switched on)

Best of all they are ridiculously inexpensive

bump.

wireless status LEDs or some kind of display on 433 Mhz would be even better. How can I build one? Or where to buy?
