Zigbee and Beo-Intelligence

3 replies

Does Zigbee dimmers need a controller for communication with the BLI? Or is the BLI capable of communicating itself with Zigbee hardware?

Quite a challenge to achieve "Less is More" while having the Beovirus.

I did a quick search at the Beo-Intelligence support page. There is nothing stated about ZigBee communication. In case you'd want this kind of functionality you would have to add an extra layer of hardware/software in your installation.

Thank you for you effort you have taken. Thanks.

It's my first steps in the domotica-world of IoT. My intention was to build a controller myself which should have more flexibility in future with the help of a raspberry pi. And then hoping the BLI will communicate with that.
