Best controller for HVAC control ?

frishrash last edited by

Hi all
I'm looking for a controller that allows controlling HVAC and showing/responding to soil moisture levels.

For HVAC, I have Arduino device capable of sending the right IR codes for my HVAC.
I'd like the controller to have an interface allowing me to power on/off, set mode (heat/cool/dehumid/...), control fan speed, target temperature, flaps, sleep mode, ionizer.

For soil moisture level, simple reading should suffice, however it should support multiple moist sensors connected to a single Arduino device.

Any suggestions for most suitable controller ? ideally with built-in user interface that supports the level of HVAC control I want out of the box

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback. If you have comments, send me an emeil. As for multiplatform, I'm going to rewrite the code in ASP.NET5, once it exits beta status.Theoretically, this will make it possible to run the system on Linux and Mac. I wrote code with the future in mind.

So, now I replay with 255:255:3;0;4;1 instead of 255;255;3;0;4;0 and when I get the request 1;10;2;0;3;1.4.1 Yes I think node-id 0 should not be used.

@hek I have two sensors in my network ( temp , Hum ) and motion detection. both working in auto mode and request node id from controller ( raspberry pi ) node via gateway . but unfortunately, reponse code of both nodes get same node id 1. may be bug in sendNextAvailableSensorId() function response. any idea? thanks

If anyone is interested in trying out the implementation using UDP packets sent to the subnet broadcast address, check out my pull request https://github.com/mysensors/Arduino/pull/66

@Ron said in Capacitive Soil Moisture Sensor: @Puneit-Thukral Thanks. I am not quite sure, so correct me please if I am wrong, but I think I am already using the MiniCore bootloader with platformIO. Or do I need to configure to explicitly use the MiniCore bootloaders? Also I have set BOD to disabled as I read somewhere that no BOD can also save battery. hi I'm not sure, but I believe I'm already using the MiniCore bootloader with platformIO. Please tell me if I'm incorrect. Is it necessary to set the MiniCore bootloaders explicitly?

Automatic node ID's are now also supported! There is a step-by-step install guide here: https://github.com/tsathishkumar/MySController-rs/issues/30 You can easily run this alongside Domoticz. Burn an image for the Mozilla Gateway onto an SD card. Follow the guide above to install MySController-rs. Install Domoticz at port 8081 and 444 (instead of 8080 and 443, as the Mozilla Gateway is already at those ports).

Hi @edoardoo I actually stumbled on your post a couple of weeks ago! Great writeup! We certainly need contributors. We need help with everything from the visualisation of sensordata in the frontend (considering using d3.js) to mqtt/node.js backend for receiving and processing sensor data. Please contact me or Johan for further discussions.

Well, sure enough we work on sensors but more related to home automation. Industrial automation requires higher quality stuff and usually the sensor types are different. About other forum start searching "industrial automation forum" there are some coming out, also I bet there are some in your specific country too. Communities are everywhere
