Domoticz

Hi All,

I am planning in expanding my Domoticz system to include data from the watermeter.

Ofcourse I have search this forums (and google) but I find the found information a bit unclear.

First let me explain what I have:
I have the Domoticz software running on Ubtuntu and read out the smart meter via USB on the P1 port. This works like a charm.

Nothing else is done hardware/software.

Now I have read about the CNY70. Which seems to me the way to go. But this is connected to the PiFace (which I don't have). The part that is unclear to me is how does the PiFace communicate with Domoticz. I have seen the setup/installation but it is talking about rasppi (which I don't have). Maybe the installation is the same on Linux ? How do I connect the PiFace to my Ubuntu ?

In near future I also want to read out my CV (like tapwater and heating) and beside that I want to have the readings of the Solar panels which I am planning to buy (with a Solaredge)

I can find information about Solaredge and CV on this forum ( haven't really read into it) But my main question is about the PiFace for reading my Sensus watermeter.

Regards

Ronald

You can also build it using a aurduino at this moment I'm building one myself

Hi,

Thanks for you reply. I had seen the page you are referring.
As I don't have an Aurduino board I will have to buy this as well.

As I am very new to domoticz, how do I connect this to domoticz ?

The easiest way is to connect it trough USB.

ok,

Thanks for the reply

HI

I am new here, but not to HA. I use an ISY: https://www.universal-devices.com/resid ... zw-series/

I am a kickstarter supporter of the below water meter/controller. I know it will be compatable with ISY and also controllable via wifi. I imagine domoticz will be able to interface with is.

Why do you think this ? (I imagine domoticz will be able to interface with is)

Also nothing wrong with the mysensors method, total cost will be < 10$ if you do some good shopping

Hi thanks for the reply. Nice to join the group here.

The WaterHero is a robust device that monitors and controls water flow, emergency shutoff, reporting, etc. It is intended for protection and management.

I am not familiar with mysensors, but for monitoring only at $10, that's great.

I look forward to learning more about your site/creation.

Thanks!!

Hi a followup if I may: I do not have a "smart" water or gas meter. Can mysensors handle that? What meter requirements does mysensors have?

Thanks

Have a look : http://www.mysensors.org/build/pulse_water

At least a normal watermeter can be monitored with my sensors and domiticz
As long as they have some sort of a wheel witch can be monitored
