    • RE: Project boxes for MySensor's nodes and gateway?

      The Custom Enclosure Factory on AliExpress has some nice cases.

      And for a ghetto option, I've got a few old Mentos chewing gum containers around the place 🙂 (This one is stuck to the side of the Central heating unit with magnets. WIN_20150919_11_00_45_Pro.jpg

      I think I've found the problem, have submitted a bug report to HomeGenie.

    • RE: HomeGenie, experience?

      At the moment there is no MySensors v2.0 support in HomeGenie, but I'm working on a new Serial Gateway.

      At first there will only be limited support (Switches, Temp, Humidity and Motion) but I'm hoping to have more available within a short time.

      The first test version will be available this Friday.

      EDIT: I see now that HomeGenie is already a part of the ControllerMatrix, but no link and information in the list. Will see what I can dig out.

      AWI asked me to fill out the Controller Matrix form a few days ago, I hadn;t got around to creating a document yet. The document you made looks like I would have done it I think.

      Thanks to the help of @raptorjr HomeGenie will also have support for the Ethernet Gateway. 👍

    • RE: HomeGenie, experience?

      @raptorjr Ah yes, I wasn't very clear there. What I meant is an example of how you are using the sensor, if I have understood correctly, you are doing the following:

      • Measure water temp, if too high (or low) then activate the water valve.
      • Keep water valve open until the desired temperature has been reached.

      But how the water flow sensor fits into this I'm not sure. Is it to make sure the water valve has been closed? Or to give an estimate of how long it will take? something else?

      My current project includes a outdoor fishtank and the ability to regulate the temperature in the tank by filling it up with new water. Need support for waterflow meter and water valve for example.

      Water valve shouldn't be a problem, it's basically on/off? Then you could just assign it as a binary switch and give it a nicer widget icon in HomeGenie.

      For the water flow meter, could you give me an example of what you have made, and how you would like to see it work within HomeGenie. (comparison to the Domoticz solution would be a good help too)

      But I haven't tried HomeGenie so much yet. How is it with automation? Easy/flexible to do? I need some automated way to measure water temperature and open/close water valve accordingly.

      HomeGenie is pretty good for flexible yet powerful automation rules, even if you're not great with coding. That shouldn't be a problem at all.

      No, I'm not a developer of HomeGenie, I've helped a little bit, but I'm not the greatest programmer and I think I'd hurt the project more than help 🙂

      It's basically a one man show, although Gene (the Developer) is very open to any help, and quite a few people have chipped in over the years.

      Not sure on the roadmap, what kind of devices are you looking at using?

      @mvdarend You discover your issue with the relay?

      Sorry, since that post I tried a few small things. But then I got caught up in other projects/work/family 🙂 and haven't had time time to look into it further.
