Hi Ivan,

It was early days with IFTTT and Webhooks I went into the config screen for Webhooks to see what settings there were. When I saved it definitely changed the key. So I had to change every resource making use of webhooks and it was quite a lot. So yes probably not a day to day issue but it would definitely make the strings shorter when setting up resources that use webhooks.

Regarding Evohome, would be great. I have used Webhooks to set a few pre configured temperatures... hence I discovered the above. When using macros I can trigger the setting of a temperature. But it would be great to have more control over individual room temparates and also get feedback from the API to give the current room temp which would be nicely displayed in the Beolink / BeoLiving App.

Thanks

Steven

I meant the tutorial that MM linked to!

Yes, the JOIN command is not available on the scene configuration through the app. Macro configuration (available on PRO) is required for this.

Ok, I definitely see where you're going with the Webhooks driver, we will look into it :)

Thank a lot for the Evohome feedback, I will let all of you here know if there is any news on this front!

Dear Ivan,

I'm new in the B&O world.

I've just made home renovation and I've set up a Crestron automation control system.

For the AV equipments, I've choosen the Crestron MC3 processor to control a Blustream HDMI/HDBASET Matrix.

With BL can I control the MC3 processor in order to have just one remote control to choose light/shade scenario as well to choose Matrix input/output option and to command the various source attached to the matrix?

Thanks for the help,

FCI

Hello fedeceru,

Welcome! Does this mean we are no longer the new guys here? 😎

Crestron does not provide any generic protocol to control dimmers/shades an all the resources that they could control. So, in order to be able to access the state and to control all these resources, you should create your own protocol and implement it on the Crestron's side.

From the BLI you can then create your own driver to implement the protocol and communicate or you can use Custom strings for a more basic integration.

In any case, please let us know if you need any help from our side. 🙂

 

Ivan,

Have you considered adding Phililps Hue accessories such as wall remotes, wall dimmers, and motion sensors as resources so that we can use them as triggers in macros?

I would love to see Honeywell Evohome integration :)

Hi Ivan

Thanks for the response. I have now installed a Beoliving Intelligence and transferred my setup from BeoLink Gateway.

What I am looking for from L&K regarding the IHC system is the control of temperature. I have 2 IHC controllers installed and can control the temperature around the house if I use the L&K app. I asked Morten Hemmingsen and he promises to contact L&K to get information to setup the driver in a way, so one can control the temperature via the B&O app as well.

Can you help here ?

Hello all! Sorry for the delayed response, it has been a hectic week.

Beojeff: We have looked into the Philips Hue switches and triggers, at the moment their API does not provide Realtime events for these devices, so until they update their communication protocol, this will not be possible.

Rudi Pedersen: As you are probably aware, thermostat integration is not available currently in our LK driver, we have communicated with LK to see if they are willing to give us access to the API that covers this communication.

We are happy to tell you all that we have decided to go ahead with the Honeywell EvoHome system integration! There will be more news on this front soon.

On the subject of newly supported systems, we have added community developed drivers to support BioLock IP65, iRobot Roomba, Rachio Irrigation, DSC PowerSeries Security and generic home automation buttons and dimmers for systems like Crestron or Control4. You may now go to Tools-->Advanced-->Install external drivers on your PRO BLI to start integrating these systems in your current system.

I have also gone ahead and implemented the driver to facilitate IFTTT integration through Webhooks as Steven_London had suggested. I have uploaded the driver's Lua code to GitHub, it is a very simple implementation and some of you may be interested in it:

Hi Ivan,

Great news on Honeywell Evohome.  Look forward to hearing more soon.  Is there a solution for CAME automation products?
