ioBroker adapter for Wiffi-wz, Weatherman, Wiffi-pump, Pulsecounter, Rainyman and maybe others
This is an ioBroker Adapter to retrieve sensor data from Wiffi devices see Stall.biz for more info.
Typical examples for devices from Stall.biz are the Wiffi-wz, the Weatherman and the Rainyman. Multiple Wiffis are supported at the same time.
Due to the very low latency of the adapter (typically < 3s) it is possible to use the IR motion sensors to trigger an action like switching the lights on or off.
In the following some devices from Stall.biz are described in more detail: The Wiffi-wz is a device that combines eight sensors in a single unit. Currently the following sensors are available:
- two orthogonally aligned IR motion sensors
- temperature sensor (can be DHT22, or BME280)
- air humidity sensor (can be DHT22, or BME280)
- atmospheric pressure (can be BMP180, BMP280 or BME280)
- noise sensor with adjustable sensitivity
- luxmeter (BH1750)
- air quality sensor (MQ135)
- beeper
The Weatherman can be equipped with many sensors, see homepage for more details.
The Rainyman is a somehow reduced version of the Weatherman, see homepage for more details.
How it works
Usually the Wiffi-wz sends sensors data to a Homematic CCU. The Homematic CCU receives homematic script (or better JSON) on port 8181. The admin page of this adapter reconfigures the Wiffi-wz to send sensor data directly to ioBroker. The sensor data is encoded in JSON format. Therefore a local socket on port 8181 is opened on the ioBroker machine. Note that the socket must not be exposed to the internet due to security reasons.
Setup
-
Set ioBroker as the recipient for the sensor data by retrieving the url
http://[wiffi ip]/?ccu:[io-broker's ip]:
-
and set the port to 8181 by
http://[wiffi ip]/?param:12:8181
-
Tell wiffi-wz that it has to send data in JSON format without HTML header (Note that the weatherman may use a different parameter number)
http://[wiffi ip]/?param:27:1
If any error occurs, please set the adapter loglevel to debug and send me the data telegram via email.
