Our latest “My Automated Home” story comes from Ian Gardner as well as his Domoticz powered wise home.
My house automation journey started around 12 years back with a single PC running Fedora Linux, motion and a single USB webcam watching over my driveway.
It was all thanks to a buddy as well as work associate (Steve L) who inspired me to provide it all a try.
Over time I played with X10, utilized an original RFXCom receiver with xpl-perl as well as experimented with different HomeEasy devices. Over the years my setup has changed as well as evolved and currently looks like this…
HP N36L Microserver running VMWare ESXi (The heart of the system)
Several multi-purpose virtual machines running Ubuntu 14.04LTS
VM running Domoticz as well as OpenZwave
USB RFXCom (433MHz)
USB connection from Cyberpower UPS
USB noise Card with USB powered speakers for notifications
USB Aeotec Z-wave controller
Philips Hue Controller
5x Philips Hue Lux bulbs
Philips Hue Bloom lamp
Owl Intuition Controller
Owl Intuition-C – utilized to control my heating – I don’t bother controlling hot water
Owl CM180 power clamp as well as display
Billion Bipac 7800DXL router, different switches, powerline AV adapters
Trendnet IP310TV cameras for security (PoE)
Synology Diskstation DS115j (for CCTV archive footage)
Another Cyberpower UPS for the cameras
Z-wave Devices
Fibaro FMSS001 PIR
Aeotec Multisensor (not currently in use)
Fibaro FGSS101 Smoke Alarm
TKB SM103 Door Sensor (detect when front door is opened)
Vision ZD2102 Door Sensor wired as a doorbell
Fibaro Binary Sensor (later utilize planned)
TKB TZ88E energy measuring power sockets
RFX controlled/detected devices
Oregon scientific Themo/Humidity sensors
Oregon scientific rain Gauge
Oregon scientific Anemometer
Byron PIRs
Home simple remote controlled sockets
Home simple light fittings
Home simple PIR
X10 RF PIR
LightwaveRF Remote Controls
LightwaveRF mood Switches
Energenie LAN Power Strip
Wunderground to improve regional weather condition information
Sonos Play 1 – a relatively new addition as well as fantastic device!
Obi 110 VOIP Adaptor – this allows me to grab call history from my landline from a webpage as well as more…
BlinkStick
Logitech harmony Hub/Remote
Raspberry Pi as well as Camera
Parts of the system have shown some genuine benefits as well as proven the “business case”:
Being off-the-sewage-grid (septic tank) I have a rather costly pumping station as well as although the heavy cast iron pumps can last years, one just recently burnt out.
I saw a sustained 1.2kW boost in home power usage as reported by the Owl CM180 which I traced to be one of the pumps however there was little I might do to prevent its eventual demise – it’s thermal cut out didn’t save it as well as then bang.
So after costs £800 on a new pump I decided to invest £35 in a Z-wave power metering socket (TKB TZ88E) which quickly shows any type of modification in power usage i.e. when the pump is running – if the pump stays active for longer than 1 minute an email alert (I mean to modification to a push notification) is sent as well as I can remotely switch it off as well as investigate the problem (e.g. a stuck float switch) reducing the danger of one more £800 shed ki! I might likewise script it to power down however I will do that one more day…
Some people on the Domoticz forum warned that high power devices like pumps can overload such sockets however after many months of quite much everyday on/offs I have had no issues at all. I chose the plug-in 13amp choice as I wanted to be able to quickly eliminate it later. I likewise utilize TZ88E’s somewhere else on a lamp as well as the TV/AV kit.
As well as remote power control, temperature sensing, etc. I utilize my setup for the following:
The Trendnet IP cameras take fantastic high quality 3MP snapshots when movement is detected on the driveway (Byron PIR) or when the doorbell is pressed. While these IP cameras have built-in movement detection as well as continuous recording to the NAS it is really useful to get the notifications provided from the PIRs. This is all triggered by a Domoticz lua script which in turn calls a shell script to grab the snapshots.
The doorbell push plays an mp3 as well as sends a push message to my iPhone.
Philips hue is now providing my security lighting while I likewise utilize a LightwaveRF mood controller to switch them on as well as off via Domoticz.
The Domoticz VM plays a dog-bark.mp3 on the USB noise card when movement is detected on the driveway – useful to understand when planned or unplanned visitors arrive!
Related to the above I have a shell script that checks if home power usage is high soon before going to bed i.e. indicating a high power gadget has been left on – right here I play an mp3 data as a warning however once again might quickly modification to a push message.
The UPS’s do a fantastic tKérdezze meg a kisebb áramkimaradások kezelését, valamint az egyik jelentést, amikor az energia elveszik, és visszaállítja a naplóadatokat, míg a másik védi a szinológiát.
Bemutattam egy egyszerű statikus HTML -feltételes oldalt, hogy elmentem a Domoticz -hez való bejelentkezés követelményét, amikor csak a legutóbbi autópálya -képek ellenőrzése vagy az érzékelő ellenőrzése.
Szóval mi a következő?
Lehet, hogy az ESXI gazdagépet egy újabb, alacsony teljesítményű szerverre cserélem, hogy az Ubuntu -t natív módon egyszerűsítsem a dolgokat
Módosítsa a szkriptet a szivattyúk kikapcsolásához, ahelyett, hogy csak róla mondana nekem!
Nézze meg a node.js -t, valamint a noded -et (köszönet a haveromnak, valamint Brian B. társult tanácsának itt)
Végezze el a Fibaro bináris érzékelőt sugár / törés -érzékelőkkel a meghajtón, mivel
Szerezd meg az Aeon Labs PIR -t – az akkumulátor energiáján ez nem jó hírű, ezért követelményem van a PSU -hoz való kapcsolódáshoz
Végezze el a szkripteket az útválasztómon, hogy felfedezzük, mikor vannak telefonjaink, és csatlakoznak a WiFi -hez – létezés észlelése!
Integrálja az OWL Intuition-C-Jelenleg csak az OWL alkalmazás vagy a weboldalon keresztül tudom ellenőrizni
Hasonlóképpen elkezdtem játszani a Bluetooth Low Energy Beacon eszközökkel, hogy észrevegyem a létezést, pl. tegyen egyet a kocsiba
Használja a Sonos Play 1 -et az értesítésekhez
Végezze el a Blinksticket az értesítésekhez
Lehet, hogy használja ki a Raspberry Pi -t, valamint a kamerát
A végső feljegyzésben szeretnék mondani a Domoticz Forum felhasználóknak, valamint a különféle egyéb webes erőforrásoknak köszönhetően, hogy mindezt lehetővé tegyék.
