In wall LCD Switch/Scene controller for MySensors
-
-
Very nice. The 1.8" screen looks to be perfect size to mount in existing light switch mounts.
-
Arf !! One more thing to do after my weather station node !!
Looks very good !
-
Thats great thinking @mfalkvidd
I wanted it to be easy to use for all but the front mount with buttons is hard to find - if that works with a switch mount that would be great:)
-
@sundberg84 congratulations, one more great hardware contribution.
I like it as all the others.
Keep going, your hard work is appreciate
-
Thank you! This is an AWESOME project. What comes next? Light switch with touch screen? That will be even more awesome project
-
Thank you for that kind words.
@maslinar Haha - you never knows, I had these in my mailbox some weeks ago, the hard part is doing it clean and good looking. Ideas are welcome how to transfer a touch from some material into that plate...
-
I don't know how to help you with that module but why don't you try with tft lcd with touch capability?
-
Seem nice !
And look like a KNX clim controler.Do you have a topic talking about your 230Vac/5Vdc solution ?
-
In my opinion its a hard question but:

Thanks for the fast answer, I was thinking that you haven't used the "big" HLK. But, it seem it's there !
Sorry !

Nice work! This box has you watched? I ordered it.

@abalazs Nice! No i have not seen it - thank you! Please let us know how it worked out - if it works I can add this to the description!
-
Is it possible to do something similar with the smaller LCDs? Like the 2x16 ones?
-
@Tore-André-Rosander it wouldn't fit inside an electric box it's way wider than a 1.8'' LCD...
-
@Tore-André-Rosander anything is possible in diy you need to find out if everything fits inside the wall and then find a good case.

So I'm trying to figure out your set up. Obviously you have other sensors, but is this your controller? Gateway? What type of network did you use? I'm trying to learn how to use the MySensors Library and your project has me intrigued. I'm wanting to control various slaves that make use of digital potentiometers.
-
@Danton-Barnes - hi!
I suggest you read https://www.mysensors.org/about and the tutorial.
I have a controller (Domoticz) and a gateway - this is standard for MySensors and if you read above you figure it out.
The LCD screen works like any sensor / Node.
Let me know if there is any more questions.

Hi @sundberg84,
thanks for your nice work! I'm currently searching for a similar project but with a touchscreen implementation:).
Do you plan this in the near future?
Or do you know similar touch projects from other sources?
-
@artipi - Hi, nope not at the moment but if you search the forum there is some projects/authors working with touchscreens.
