Hey Wusel,

no it is not. The link points to github.com. Where did you find the reference to hexabus.org?

We're still awaiting Plugwise to open up the protocol. In the mean time an open source alternative is emerging: https://github.com/mysmartgrid/hexabus/wiki/HexaBus-Plug I've invested quite some time in adding support for the Plugwise hardware to my home automation system due to the closed-source nat...

Hey Daromer, to be able to tell something useful I really need the debug output of the communication between the software and the Stick (this means all messages created and received by the stick just before the point where the communication fails). As I stated before, I suspect that you can cause th...

I'm only reading out the historic power consumption in my system and not the live power consumption. From what you write, could it be that you're requesting the live power too frequently? Have you tried reducing the request rate to e.g. once a second? Does the problem then also occur? Do you also se...

As stated: xpl-plugwise stalls when it is waiting for a response from the Stick. I assume that the Stick responds to each frame in the same way: one 'ACK' with a frame counter, and one actual response. If this is not the case, then xpl-plugwise will appear to 'hang' (and you indeed see that 'awaitin...

Regarding the livehistory: I wouldn't know what the limits are (that is what you get with closed-protocol hardware...). So it is hard to determine if the problem you describe is hardware related or something that is wrong in the interface I wrote. I did implemented a command queue that limits the ra...

Hej Daromer, cool! I'm using MisterHouse to control some lights based on the lightlevel outside and based on motion sensors. I also turn the amplifiers of my music installations on and off based on the status of my Squeezeboxes. The interface to the plugwise devices from MisterHouse is provided by a...

Hello, Cool, you're almost there as far as I can see :-) Maybe a note first, could you please provide example output with just the option --verbose instead of ultraverbose? The ultraverbose output is for debugging the xpl-plugwise code and the output is a bit ugly/not so readable. What you see in th...

Are you sure you loaded the latest firmware in the Stick and the Circles? If you connect to Source it should state '2011-05-13' in the firmware field of all your devices. If you have old firmware then my plugwise interface will not be able to connect to the hardware. Plugwise changed the interface p...

Hello,

I have developed an xPL interface towards the Plugwise hardware that is running firmware v2.37. It is based on the xpl-perl framework.

More info here: http://lika.be/wp/2011/07/plugwise-xpl- ... -firmware/

Best regards,
Hollie.

Hmm, those JeeNodes indeed look interesting! Another thing to put on my 'to-experiment-with' list

Pff, steep price tag. I was also awaiting the Scan but for this price I will look for alternatives. The indicated price gives me the impression that they only focus on selling those devices to companies. @pvgent: the scan is still listed at 125 euro incl VAT when I checked? I am however curious if t...

Hi Niklas, you can use this module to send commands form the terminal by first installing xpl-perl, and then adding the plugwise module to your xpl-perl install by copying the files in the package to the appropriate location on your system. To use xPL messages, you then first need to start a hub app...

Hi Jfn, until you have time to update your code package, I've made a patched version of your module available here: http://code.google.com/p/hasy/source/browse/#svn/trunk/misterhouse/xplplugwise Changes include the bugfix for the status report that incorrectly reported the state of a circle, and an ...

Hi Jfn, In the mean time I'm using your Plugwise Perl code to integrate circles with Misterhouse. I have a bugfix in the status response routine and a suggestion for reporting state information I'd like to share with you. Can I email you the diffs somewhere? It seems that I'm not able to send you an...
