Raspberry PI + RFXCOM RFXtrx433 +Oregon Scientific sensors + http://www.domoticz.com/ With this system you can log temperatures, humidity, wind,...

Fibaro do a door/window contact (based on z-wave) that has provision for a thermistor. Link this to a RaZberry Pi (the Z stands for z-wave shield)....

I have now listed the homevision controller. ...

One thing to bear in mind is that a particular database file name is linked to historical data files using that name. In other words its ok to change...

Aye, as the investment in the database grows, day by day ... now & then we rename already-saved databases before saving another, just in-case,...

Hi, You could have a look at Geovision, see: http://www.geovision.com.tw/english/Prod_GVASManager.asp The feature list seems broadly inline with...

Yes of course its always a good idea to manually back up files you have laboured on :), but also Cortex will make an automatic backup before it saves...

Thanks Karam!

Hi Paul - we put one in every heat-transfer circuit, so one per pump - bar solar, which could get too-hot - so, one in the loop between ASHP &...

interesting - thanks to the the insight gained from doing these experiments, and the subsequent feedback, little by little we're gradually building...

As a general comment, deleting objects and disabling/enabling network nodes is better done when the network is stopped. In the latter case if you...

Chris, How many water meters from JetRange have you installed? Shame we couldn't find a more basic flow meter with pulse output rather than a full...

Paul - well done - well worth a try ... our heat transfer circuits run for hours rather than minutes, so 10 per pulse isn't the end of the...

need space make me an offer for the overall ;)by MP

stopping network, dropped CPU usage to a few % ... running it & then deleting both video windows gave around a 15% reduction ... deleting...

Chris, I had the same feeling as you that 10L per pulse was possibly a bit coarse for my requirement and after a lot of searching was coming to...

Just to put things in perspective I think this might be one of the largest installations coupled with the smallest computing platform :). My last...

A temporary change will also be removed at midnight and if the network is stopped/started. A return to normal profile can be made to occur based on...

Maybe I am just being dense - but I really am looking for an idiots guide here - a total step by step instruction of; 1) You'll need an XYZ...

Paul - solar-PV - too marginal, even with FiTs, for us anyway - as an add-on (rather than being fully integrated) the cost-benefit seemed about...

many thanks - did check that, and we were already set to Version 1 & the box was already ticked ... OTOH, our experiment with increased (default)...

Hi Chris, i recently experienced problems with high CPU utilization. Problem was related to defibrillator proces, and with Karam advice I changed...

Chris, Many thanks for putting this post together. I know what I will be doing tonight when I get home after work! Did you install solar thermal,...

Hi Paul - OK, as promised : A. temperature & humidity sensors ... - generally PLHs - by windows (light-level sensor determines location),...

Hi Paul - yep ... hopefully later / late today ... Chris
