PoKeys USB/Ethernet for IO, Sensor gateways etc.
Posted: Sunday 06 March 2016 12:12
I would like to present PoKeys series of IO devices that I think would be an interesting device to support by Domoticz.
PoKeys devices are USB or Ethernet general purpose IO devices. There are 55 pins on wire terminals, each functioning as a digital input or output. 7 of those can be used as analog inputs, 6 as PWM outputs. One can connect alphanumeric LCD to it, various switches and buttons etc.
The device also features support for Dallas 1-wire sensors (DS1820) and cheap 1-wire DHTxx (DHT11, DHT21, DHT22) and some I2C sensors (SHT21 temperature/humidity sensor, LM75 temperature sensor etc.). The device does the sensor reading by its own and provides direct sensor measurement values.
As a bonus, each device also includes a programmable controller (PLC) that is programmed using free (block-based) graphical programming environment named PoBlocks.
There is open-source (cross-platform) C++ communication library available with the Python wrapper, so supporting/using the device is very easy.
