Momert 5848-9 bathroom scale (reading from lcd)
-
Thanks to http://quo.vadis.stojkovic.ch/hacking-a-weighing-scale/ and http://troels.leegaard.org/misc/grundtal20047/ I hacked Momert 5848-9 bathroom scale http://momert.eu/index.php/en/products?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&category_id=16&product_id=158
Pin arrangement the same as on IKEA Grundtal scales http://troels.leegaard.org/misc/grundtal20047/grundtal20047.pdf
Putting 3V to each lcd pin you can figure out what is each pin for. I used 13 lcd pins from 16. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGe3wtwzqf0

Or do i need *Sensor1.json *Sensor1.xml files for it working? Because when i included scales node to Vera and restarted Luup, after that all nodes stoped working. Only restoring VERA from backup are helped.

Wild!
How will you use this? (Its not apparent to me this late at night ;-) ) -
Vera Plugin ScaleSensor

@derrij - Amazing work working this out.
I had this same idea back in about Feb this year...my approach was to hack it the same way as you have done, but i also knew i didnt have the skills ( or time) to work this out...really cool!!!I think your work/technique has a lot of value in "mySensoring" other devices with LCD/LED digit displays. Eg: A thermostat/control panel built into portable gas heaters- so as to read the display digits.
Related....and cool too, just not as cool...
Not long after there was a bargain on these http://www.withings.com/eu/ws-30.html - Abouit $40aud so i bought these instead...No they dont hook into mySensors, or Vera...but they are Web-enabled and can work out who the family member standing on the scales...and also tell you if its going to rain that day. -
Wow, i did not do this to my digital weight scale. You did a great job here
