![]() ![]() Because the wireless transmitter only sends the data in that frequency, it probably makes very little sense. ![]() With an open connection and without significant change of the fluid level, the current level is send every 30/60 minutes (water/oil) to the computer. The app never always read more than about 800 bytes of data at once, e.g. bit 4: live data received from the deviceġ byte hour – used to transmit the current time to the deviceĢ byte eeprom start (16 bit, big-endian) – unused in live data.bit 3: force recalculate the device (set on upload after changing the Sensor Offset, Outlet Height or the lookup table).bit 2: a non-empty payload is send to the device.bit 1: force reset the device (set before an update of the device).bit 0: set the clock (hour/minutes/seconds) in the device on upload.1 byte command (1: data send to the device, 2: data received from the device).2 byte length of the complete package (16 bit, big-endian).Package formatĪll data to or from the device is transmitted as a package. With 115200 baud, 8N1 it is possible to communicate with the device. I now have the BAB-tec module as a plan-B in case I need to move away from loxone ever.The receiver device has a USB port, which has a CP2102 USBRS232 converter. Took a few evenings of room-by-room migrations, some learning of ETS inside (once you "get it", it's really easy to work with) and some fine tuning. This was also the moment that I Invested in the BAB-tec app-module with ETS inside, and we moved all our movement sensors to KNX movement sensors. (we ended up with basic KNX buttons from Gira, since we had Gira material all around already, so color and finish matches). Basic means, looks and feels like old fashioned buttons, include a temperature sensor, a led for visual feedback/alarm, and have enough capability to switch/dim the lights/blinds for a room. So we decided to go to relatively basic KNX switches (these are available nowadays, weren't there 4 years ago when we had to decide). The general feeling for loxone chnged from my side because of this). Strange products which make me wonder who would ever want those. Also Loxone started to act in ways which I don't like (no direct purchases or cases for end-users anymore, all through partners. and the visitors all wondered how these things worked. the robot vacuum cleaner which starts when nobody is home since 30 minutes : MUST-HAVEĨ) my better half started to complain about not liking the loxone touch buttons. the cameras (from ubiquiti, in POE) and the alarms that turn on and off mechanically depending on the presence or absence of the family : MUST-HAVE ![]() the double-flow mechanical ventilation which starts by itself when it is needed (CO2 too high in a room, get fresh air from outside in summer, exit humidity from kitchen / bathroom, exit bad smell from toilets / kitchen) : MUST-HAVE the heating turns on and off by itself and can be managed by rooms (depending on the temperature of the rooms and the state of the windows and the weather forecast) : MUST-HAVE (but is still challenged as we want to make a passive home without heating) the lights that turn on and off automatically according to various criteria (we go to sleep, it's daytime, it's nighttime, the luminosity goes below a certain threshold. the water heater that switches to boost mode when hot water consumption exceeds a certain threshold over a given period of time : MUST-HAVE ![]()
