Wireless Sensor Tags, Pressure Mat, Infrared beam

Post by Gambit »

interested in a few different things that someone else may already have and has connected into Domoticz or working on.

I wrote a bash script for the wirelesstags, see: viewtopic.php?p=84692#p84692

unfortunately the link doesn't work..

Anyone any experience with these tags? Do you need the tag manager as well or can you link the sensors directly to domoticz (not sure if the tags are zwave/zigbee or not and if I can use my zstick/hue hub?).

Yes, you need the tag manager.

I've since replaced the bash script with the URL calling feature. This is an example of a calling URL I use:

http://<domoticz-fqdn>/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=62&nvalue=0&svalue=<%round({2},2)%>;{3};0

I realize this is a very old thread, however, it is actually the only relevant result that comes up when you Google domoticz and wireless tag sensors. Having that said, I wanted to reply with a quick HOWTO integrate these temperature tags into Domoticz.

Pre-requisite: Setup the wireless tag manager first. Get it setup the way you want with sensors in place. Ensure the tag(s) are reporting data.

1. In Domoticz, go to Setup > Hardware
2. Add a device type "Dummy (Does nothing, use for virtual switches only)", call it Tag Manager or whatever you want.
3. After you add it, it will appear in the Device list above, you should see a "Create Virtual Sensors" button for your dummy device.
4. Click 'Create Virtual Sensors'
5. Enter a name for your device (e.g. Temperature sensor), for Sensor Type, choose "Temperature" if your Wireless Tag is only capable of reporting Temperature. If it can report Temperature & Humidity, choose 'Temp+Hum'. Click OK, it will say that the device is created and will appear in Devices.
6. Go to Setup > Devices. Locate your newly created device and note the Idx number assigned to it. This is important!
7. Go to the my.wirelesstag.net interface
8. Click your sensor to expand the details. Click the ">" button (it's the far right one)
9. Click on "URL Calling"
10. Tick the box for "When tag sends a temperature/humidity/brightness update..."
11. For the "Call URL", enter one of the following URLs:

In the below URLs, where you see "idx=###", fill in the Idx number noted in Step 6.

If the tag reports temperature only:
http://IP of your Domoticz Server:port/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=###&nvalue=0&svalue=<%round({2},2)%>

If the tag reports both temperature and humidity:
http://IP of your Domoticz Server:port/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=###&nvalue=0&svalue=<%round({2},2)%>;{3};0

Example: If the idx number was 123 and it is a tag that only reports temperature, then the URL would be something like:
http://192.168.1.50:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=123&nvalue=0&svalue=<%round({2},2)%>

12. Click the box "This URL uses private IP address (Call from Tag Manager)"
13. Click the Save button (top right)
14. When the tag sends an update, it should trigger the URL with the relevant data. Domoticz will then display and record this data. To force an update, click the "Updated" button and choose 'Update Now'. Data will update into Domoticz at every update interval you have configured for the tag.
