Smart outdoor lightning via In-Lite system and Domoticz

[AllesVanZelf]

I was wondering it somebody has experience with the In-Lite garden/outdoor lightning system?
This system works with Hubs, or smart hub. The latter is controlled by an app.

It would be nice if it is possible to connect this to my Domoticz system and have more control in one app.

Or are there alternatives for outdoor lighting which are more Domoticz friendly?

I'm using Fibaro switches to control the In-Lite garden lights. I can enable and disable this through Domoticz as there is a Fibaro switch connected.

Thank you RGroothuis Are you using a hub in this setup?

Thank you RGroothuis Are you using a hub in this setup?

Not sure what you mean with "hub". But the Raspberry Pi running Domoticz has a USB dongle supporting the ZWave protocol (https://www.robbshop.nl/aeon-labs-usb-a ... zwave-plus). The Fibaro devices are devices also supporting the ZWave protocol and in that way you can control the switch (on/off) of the In-Lite. I'm not using any special In-Lite devices apart from the lamps/power supply.

What I meant is that In-Lite uses Hub's tot transform 230V to 12V, and the Hub 50 and 100 are controllers with a touchscreen, Hub 150 is controllable with smartphone app. I was hoping that this Hub 150 was also controllable by Domoticz.

Do you already have this system? And do you want to control 3 different zones like the hub or is it OK to just switch them on/of?
Because then you can use a wifi/zigbee/zwave/rflink controlled switch to turn the outdoor lighting on/off.
If you want more control you could check with Hue Outdoor.

I do not have such an outdoor solution or lighting. Someone pointed me in this direction. I will have a look at Hue outdoor. I do have Zwave en Zigbee controllers. Thank you.

The Hub cannot be controlled by Domoticz.
I was lucky that when on the hub you enable the lights and then when you unplug the power and plug it back in again the lights were still on. In this way you can use any 220v power switch that can be Domoticz controlled to switch on/off the garden lights.

I use the same method as rgroothuis. Normally the In-Lite hub is controlled with an illumination sensor, but when you disable this you can switch it on/off with a 220v Z-Wave switch and control it within Domoticz. You only can switch the whole In-lite hub on/off but not the sepearate groups within the hub.
