I'm still here, but I do not have the time to update the plugin. If some of you would like to help out with the development of the plugin I can grant you access to the git repository?

Best regards,

Great idea. I'm in ... if possible.

Hi,

I'm the developer of the MySensors HomeSeer plugin. The expiry date was implemented in order to ensure that most users are running the latest version of the plugin.

I'm happy to hear that you are taking my plugin into use.

A lot of effort has been spent on adding support for retransmission, timeout, unit strings etc. Adding support for new sensors is in principle trivial as long as the protocol is clear - for some of the sensors I had to talk to HEK about the definition of the protocol.

Maybe focus should be changed to additional sensor support for the coming releases.

Best regards,
Henrik

Also, the AS3935 returns the distance in km, but I believe S_DISTANCE is in cm. Is there a way to specify different units or should I have the sketch convert it to cm and then have the controller convert back to km?

The actual value returned can be as large as 16843008. I'll take a look at VAR_1, but don't believe the HomeSeer plugin supports that yet. As a test I used I used V_WATT/S_POWER for now.

Two mechanisms have been implemented in the HomeSeer controller plugin (1.0.5574.17274) to support custom unit strings in the controller UI:

• V_UNIT_PREFIX (only available in the development branch of the MySensors library). The prefix provided in the V_UNIT_PREFIX message will precede the default metric unit (defined by the plugin e.g. m (meter) for the distance sensor). The sensor configuration (metric/imperial) can be set by the user as a property on S_ARDUINO_NODE device via the HomeSeer UI. Please note, the prefix will not take effect when the sensor configuration is set to imperial.
• A user defined unit string. A unit string can be defined by the user. The metric/imperial configuration unit string and unit prefix will be ignored if a user defined unit string exists. The user defined unit string can be set by the user as a property on the device e..g. S_DISTANCE via the HomeSeer UI.

The HomeSeer MySensors plugin is available here.

Hi,

I've create an HS3 MySensors.org controller plugin.

Please take the plugin for a spin and let me know how it works. Please note that the plugin is still under development.

Zip file with a couple of screenshots from the user interface
