Presence Simulator - status of the circuits after simulation stop

Ricardo Pinto | visiontech pt 3 years ago in bOS Server updated by Noel Fuentes 3 years ago 4


Hi,

To be honest I've never used the Presence Simulator node on bOS.

But some of my customers are asking for it, so I decided to test it out first.

The thing I've noticed right away, is that when I stop the simulator, every circuit of that simulator is turned off, even if have them on. The same applies for the shutters (0-100%), they are left completely opened as they receive the 0% value.


It could make sense on lights to let them turned off, but probably not on shutters. Probably the best way would be let them be in their last position before the simulation is stopped.

So this means, that if I place every shutter of a house on a presence simulator, when I stop the simulator ALL the shutters of that simulator will be left open.

Any workaround on this? I don't want to end up by doing some logic to close the shutters after the simulator stops, but I guess I'll have to if needed. 


I guess that the customers will be worried to know that the shutters will be opened after ending the simulation.

Please advise.

Best regards

Control an Onkyo receiver via IP using basic driver

Peter Elvidge 3 years ago in Devices / Basic 0

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

Controling Sonos is unreliable and limited

Peter Elvidge 3 years ago in Devices / Sonos updated 3 years ago 3

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?

Server 4.8.5 changes default colours from 4.5

Paul G 3 years ago in bOS Configurator updated by ComfortClick Support 3 years ago 8

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)

Image 2966

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

Image 2967

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?

http device connection error

Gracjan 3 years ago in Devices / Http updated 3 years ago 2

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?

SMA SunnyBoy returns -1

Michiel Kenis 3 years ago in Devices / Modbus updated by Jürgen Jürgenson 3 years ago 3

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;

Using the solaredge integration

koen dils 3 years ago in General updated by Dejan Recek 3 years ago 2

Hi, I saw this topic: Solar Edge - Smart Home Building Automation Software - ComfortClick bOS 

But i'm unable to get it working/connecting. Is there some feedback or manual available to further troubleshoot this?

It doesn't seem to work via API calls. 

Thanks in advance.

Advise on a possible compatible USB<>UART adapter

Ricardo Pinto | visiontech pt 3 years ago in bOS Server updated by Juan Tomasetti 2 years ago 3

Hello everyone,

Hope that everyone's safe.


I'm looking forward to test a certain device, that's supposed to be connected to a RPI under the UART interface (+5v GND RX TX).

As I'm not even risking voiding the warranty of the Jigsaw, I was looking for any kind of USB adapter that would allow me to connect the UART interface of the device, to a USB on the Jigsaw, and therefore try to use the "Basic" device to see if something happens, and try to do the integration.

Most of the adapters I see on the internet refer drivers, etc. I was looking for something more straightforward, as I just want to connect via USB to the Jigsaw.

Any advise? Anyone ever used this kind of adapter on the Jigsaw / Grinder / Whatever?

Best regards
