niko home

[maxmax39]

Hi,
someone have got experience with niko home ethernet controller?
If I could have some information maybe I could try to make something with mine to use it with domoticz.
I will try to see with wireshark, but maybe more complicate than just some message not coded

I throw a bottle at sea...

hi maxmax39,

i'm also looking for more information on Niko Home Control.
It is possible to control lights etc, but i haven't been able to accurately check the status of the lights: the external switches are also able to change the status without domoticz knowing about it.

The trick will be to make domoticz check the statuses at intervals i guess. This can be done by sending
{"cmd":"listactions"} to the NHC gateway. This lists a full list of all devices in you system, with the current status (p. ex.: 0 for off, 100 for on for regular lights)

i also think something has to be done with {"cmd":"startevents"}. It looks like this enables status feedback...?

Please, also take a look at djmoon's post viewtopic.php?f=56&t=11114&p=82063#p79873 on how to construct the actions

Kind regs,
Tom
