Interfacing with Resol VBus using Basic HTTP
I have ComfortClick interfaced to my KNX devices but I would like to also link to my Solar Controller. The controller is a Resol Deltsol MX http://www.resol.de/index/produktdetail/kategorie/1/id/69/sprache/en connected to the Resol DL2 Dataloger http://www.resol.de/index/produktdetail/kategorie/2/id/12/sprache/en
All Resol and compatible controllers use the VBus and their are a variety of ways to connect to it. You can get raw VBus over TCP by telneting to port 7053 of any device on the VBus with an Ethernet interface (see here https://danielwippermann.github.io/resol-vbus/vbus-over-tcp.html) for example. This lets you issue commands as well as read data.
Initially I am just trying to read data from the bus by using the JSON Data Download API https://danielwippermann.github.io/resol-vbus/dlx-data-download-api.html
If I connect to my device on the following URL I get a JSON formatted response
http://dl2/dlx/download/live?sessionAuthUsername=admin&sessionAuthPassword=password
I am trying to read the temperature that is available as "value" in the following snipit
"headersets" : [
{
"timestamp" : 1506413326.784000,
"packets" : [
{
"header_index" : 0,
"timestamp" : 1506413311.424000,
"field_values" : [
{
"field_index" : 0,
"raw_value" : 22.900000,
"value" : "22.9"
},
Using the basic HTTP device with the the following settings I am able to read this Temp
The JSON token name is
headersets[0].packets[0].field_values[0].raw_value
Scene Sliders and gauges
HI Gents,
Is there any possibility of having slider type graphic for value adjustments, and a gauge graphic for readings?

bOS Configurator and bOS Client do not open
Hello! bOS configurator and bOS client do not start in my Windows 11 laptop after an update. First I updated my office server (CC Jigsaw), then the bos configurator got updated.
After this I tried to start the bOS Configurator and a pop-up error message displayed about the update of ".NET-desktop runtime 6.0.0".
When I clicked the OK button on the error message the web browser opened so i can download the last update (6.0.35). After the installation the same error message kept appearing so I downloaded manually the 6.0.0 version.
Finally, there wasn't any error message but both softwares do not start. I double-clicked on the shortcuts and right-clicked>open but the only thing that happened was for the "busy" cursor to appear for a couple of seconds. Any ideas?
Thank you in advance
Hikvision face terminal conectivity
Hello! I have been trying for a few days to connect a hikvision facial recognition terminal (ds-k1t341am) to comfort click using http. I would like to take over from this moment when he gives the command to unlock the door. for any command I used, it tells me that it is an unauthorized or invalid code as well as the status code. Does anyone have an idea how I could solve this problem? In Postman I tried to retrieve certain data, the only thing I managed to retrieve (using /ISAPI/System/deviceInfo) was the device data, but if I use this command in comfort click, it tells me that it is unauthorized. Thank you!
Help to identify the correct token
Hello Guys,
I'm getting a new device API setup, but I'm facing an issue with a token and need help to identify my mistake.
I have the following command response data: [{"accountId":"aa1111bb-cc2d-3333-e44f-55g666h7i888","genesis":true}]
I'm looking to get the account Id value, which, according to multiple JSON path finder should be under the token : [0].accountId
However, the value remains desperately empty :
Any idea about the possible issue ?
I've already tried with [].accountId and accountId, but same result
Thanks in advance for any tip

For some unknown reason, the Modbus protocol causes Values\Connected\Value: True to change to False.
Hi Support team,
I have a project that uses many Modbus Devices (Reference #1)
My protocol settings
Driver\Enable: True
Error Handling: Reconnect
Will work normally initially
Values\Connected: Trues (Reference #2)
After a period of operation
For some unknown reason, the Modbus protocol causes Values\Connected\Value: True to change to False.
Causes Modbus Device to fail to operate
Check that the physical network device and Modbus device are not faulty
The important finding is that bOS also has no error messages
I think because there is no fault abnormal signal in bOS, the parameter setting of Reconnect has no effect.
Disposal method:
Log in to bOS Configurator
Manually
set Driver\Enable: True
change into
Driver\Enable: False
Cultivation again
Driver\Enable: True
Such operation can restore normal function operation
But when something goes wrong, the customer's on-site environment shuts down immediately.
Exclusion actions require our assistance in running the program
Need help
what is the solution
It allows me to use a program to detect Driver\Enable: True
and driver\enabled: False
Automatically re-execute
Driver\Enable: True->False->True
This problem has happened many times
And every time it happens, not all Modbus devices will have the same situation happen simultaneously.
We cannot monitor the running status of the client bOS system all the time
Whenever the customer's equipment shuts down abnormally, the customer will notify us to handle it.
Several incidents gradually raised questions among customers about the stability of our systems.
Therefore requesting assistance in providing a solution Thanks
Looking forward your reply
Best regards
Run bOS functions with Microsoft Power Automate
Hello everyone,
There a bunch of times, where I'm sitting at the office in my workstation, and I need to turn on the office table light.
I could:
- Move my ass and reach to the office entrance, and push the KNX button
- Pick up the phone, open the bOS app and navigate into the office room to turn on the light
- Open the bOS Windows app and do exactly the same
But honestly I was looking for a quicker way to turn on/off the office light while I'm at the computer.
So I opened Microsoft Power Automate, and created two flows to work with bOS RPC API:
- One flow to turn ON the light; And a shortcut to fire it up (CTRL+SHIFT+L)
- One flow to turn OFF the light; And a shortcut to fire it up (CTRL+SHIFT+D)
And that's it! Now I can quickly turn on/off the office table light while I'm working, without having to open the bOS apps, by using the bOS RPC API and Microsoft Power Automate.
Lazy asses, you can thank me later :D
Best regards

RGB Color Picker - proposed improvements
Hello,
I have one proposition to improve the color picker addon/function. Now bOS allows us to use four separate values for RGBW channels. Additionally we have no enough possibilities to convert it to different kind of values, required by the other devices/systems. For example - KNX uses only RGB, Yeelight RGB in consolidated decimal format...
I believe that for Comfortclick Team is it very easy and simple to add additional values, to use it alternatively to separate channels. My proposition:
What we have now:
R - decimal 0-255 or 0-100
G - decimal 0-255 or 0-100
B - decimal 0-255 or 0-100
W - decimal 0-255 or 0-100
What is needed:
R - HEX 00-FF
G - HEX 00-FF
B - HEX 00-FF
W - HEX 00-FF
RGB - decimal (R*65536+G*256+B) 0-16777215
RGB - hex 0x00-0xFFFFFF
Do anybody need something else? What do you think about this?
Best Regards,
Artur
