Hi To Alll

im trying to create a simple knx thermostat with the setpoint up and down, and i unable to find the optimal solution, also im trying to display the room temperature and when you press the up or down button to display the setpoint.

im using bosconfig 4.8.5.

Thanks in advance

Hi,  When using the string editor (in the basic device driver). - what format codes etc. are allowed - is this documented anywhere?  I'm trying to figure out how to include unprintable chars ..  and to keep it readable and possible to format values in correctly was trying not to revert to just using hex.   .. in the example below I need the variable to be formatted in as a 2 digit hex representation of the integer..

Hi, has anyone tried to control an onkyo Receiver or similar using the basic driver?   The command protocol looks simple with one major exception - you need to calculate the length of the command and send this as part of the message in bigendian format.. is there any way to hack this together in bOS?  I guess if you limit yourself to commands of fixed length it will be possible?? ..  the protocol as I found it on the internet is attached if useful to anyone... Onkyo Serial AVR_5-17.xlsx

Hi,  I have been trying to get reliable control of sonos from bos for a while.  Volume and play / pause / stop / skip etc.  seem to consistently work well.  However - selecting playlists sometimes works sometimes does not - and I cant figure out any pattern.  Often I call PlayPlaylist(playlistName) and it just clears whats in the current queue - I call exactly the same command again and it loads the playlist and plays.  Also finding that I can put a radio station in favourites - I can call it via the pre-built bOS control .. but not via PlayFavourite(favouriteName). .. I have not successfully called any radio stations via URI either..   The fact that the simple controls like volume and play work so reliably suggests no connectivity issues etc.  short of installing wireshark on the grinder is there any way to see a log from bOS server to see whats happening between it and sonos and which side is messing up?   Finally.. in the inbuilt bOS sonos control you can list the playlists & favourites .. how can I access these from a value to work with them programatically?

Hi,

I had installed server version 4.5, after upgrading to 4.8.5 all the icons have been changed the colour I had in previous version, there´s definitively something the new version 4.8 has changed that has fallen through the cracks of testing.

See below

Previously in version 4.5 (below are just objects that refer to an scene)

Version 4.8 destroys the configuration and every single object pointing to a scene becomes hidden -this is because the icon text shows up with no value

This now yields to changing more than 50 places where such objects linking to scenes are present, surely this must have been picked up in QA testing......it happened as well with translations, where the logic was broken between previous versions, so definitively an issue with QA testing and testing cycles.

Any thoughts whether a fix will be available?

My HTTP devices to publish notifications of the values changes in KNX stop working with reason "Error connecting to device":

Debug : 31.01.2021 15:37:50 : Devices\Homebridge : Exception : Exception : [ErrorConnecting]
Debug : 31.01.2021 15:37:42 : Devices\Homebridge : Exception : Exception : [DeviceConnected]
Debug : 31.01.2021 15:37:40 : Devices\Homebridge : Exception : Exception : [DeviceDisabled]

I was trying creating the new device and moving commands but did not help. The logs aren't very verbose about the reason of failure. Im running Jigsaw. The server the HTTP is connecting to is running fine, i.e. curl queries are working ok. Is there any way to find out the root cause of it? Some more verbose logs maybe?

I've just connected my SMA Inverter (SB3.0-1AV-41) using the ModBus protocol. Connection was made successfully, but all I retrieve from fetching values is -1 or synonyms (65535 for uint16, 4294967295 for uint32,...). 

I have some ModBus information on this specific inverter ( modbuslist_en.html), and I've tried to crosscheck this with the (slightly outdated) SMA-Modbus example on the Library, but no dice... I cannot read out values from my Inverter and start building my Solar dashboard... 

I'm using the bèta of bOS 4.8.0 and these are my settings for getting the value of Phase A, address 199 in the SMA datasheet, so I use 198 in bOS;

Advise or tips?

Hi I would like a hand creating this API for aTank Sensor Called Tankutility

i would like to read the volume value and temperature value from comfortclick GUI

i am following this API Guide ( API Guide) how ever i am only able to get the Token Value under Response Value line

here is a picture of where i am stuck right now

Hello, does anyone know why the 3671 port doesn't work anymore on Bos controller even if there is a port forwarding? I need this for remote programming my KNX installation. It was working good so far since know. Also when the Bos configurator inform me  that i need to update my controller when the window prompt me to, there is no update available.  

Thanks in advance.
