      Hello,

      i want to control 13 blinds and shutters so i need 26 Relay output and 27 Digital inputs (13x up + 13x down + wind sensor).

      The new Neuron L203 fits perfect (2 relays, 4 Transistor outputs, 9 digital inputs, analog in and output still free for some other cool stuff).

      The question for me is which software i should use.

      For the basic "normal" function (press up button and the up relay closes for 40 seconds) almost every SW should be good but i also want a easy web access (control with smartphone and tablet) and some "smart" features like program every day a alarm for opening of the shutter of the bedroom (alarm time easy changeable by webinterface).
      There are also some other "nice to have" features planed like integration of EnOcean and HomeMatic components for light control of the living room (and lots of other "smart" functions).

      For future-proof i only want to use open source but this is not an must have.

      I think all required features would be not complicated with fhem.de (http://www.fhemwiki.de/wiki/ROLLO looks very easy) but there is no support for Neuron yet or?

      What other SW do you recommend for this usecase?
      openHAB?

        Hello,

        nice application :) It would be great if you share your progress and result here.

        I think that FHEM would be the solution. There are commercial platforms but it wont meet the EnOceand and HomeMatic requirements.

        FHEM is not officially supported, however implementation is pretty easy because we provide TCP modbus interface to read/control the IOs and FHEM is capable of TCP modbus too....

          Thank you for the fast answer.

          I am not sure if it is "pretty easy" for me. I have never worked with Modbus, FHEM or PEARL before.

          Where could i download the "TCP modbus" firmware? I guess Products->Neuron->firmware but which file?
          Cold i try with my own RaspberryPi or does the system not start without slave controllers?

            I will create a github repository next week where all the required steps to make the TCP modbus work will be described (or even automatized with a script).

            Right now it is only implemented in the mervis image available in downloads. So you can use that one too.

              Hi,

              my Neuron L203 arrived and i now have the time for system setup.

              Installing Raspian was no problem and its running fine now.

              With your manual at neuron_tcp_modbus_overlay i tried to install the modbus TCP server.

              First small problem was that with

              bash neuron_tcp_modbus_overlay-1.0.0/install.sh
              

              the scipt fails because of wrong paths. It works with:

              wget https://github.com/UniPiTechnology/neuron_tcp_modbus_overlay/archive/v1.0.0.zip
              unzip v1.0.0.zip
              cd ./neuron_tcp_modbus_overlay-1.0.0/
              sudo bash ./install.sh
              

              After reboot i can see with htop that "/opt/neurontcp/neuron_tcp_server -p 502 --check-firmware" is running.
              The RUN1, RUN2 and RUN3 LEDs are still blinking with 2 seconds on and 2 seconds off. According to the manual this means "Communication timeout reached MWD".

              Did the installation really work as it should?

              How can i check if the server runs correct?

              Is there an easy way to switch relay 2.1 ON with command line?

                Have you tried to run the server manually by hand? Could you paste the output of that?

                /opt/neurontcp/neuron_tcp_server -p 502 --check-firmware
                

                Also see the output of the installation script if everything goes well.

                    The above logs were done with openHAB installation on the same Pi. To make clear that i don't have a problem with the not configured openHAB i have done an new clean installation:

                    • download image from: Raspbian Jessie with PIXEL 2016-11-25
                    • copy to sd-card
                    • change locales and enable ssh with rc_gui
                    • installed with script:

                    no further message for 4 hours...

                    It seams that the "New connection from 127.0.0.1:45210 on socket 13" messages from the first install were caused by openHAB or something else i have done playing around.

                    Could you please give me some hint what i am doing wrong or is the blinking normal without active connection to the server?

                      Alright I have not tested it with the PIXEL desktop, but only with the lite version. But it should not make any difference.

                      How many devices do you see in /dev/spi*

                          That looks OK. Are you sure there is no output after you run the daemon manually? There must be something :)

                                  @armin this means that the hw and sw (tcp modbus server) is working ok. Now it is ut to you to send the commands...

                                  You shouldd use the modbus protocolfor communicating with neuron - see the modbus map of your device at downloads.unipi.technology

                                  So far no command line tool. But modbus is pretty easy.

                                    Hi,

                                    the LEDs are still blinking (2 seconds on, 2 seconds off).
                                    Is this normal behavior if no client is connected to the server?

                                      According to the manual: https://files.unipi.technology/index.php/s/zTmrEbQEvifNd6W?path=%2FProducts%2FNeuron%2FDocumentation#pdfviewer

                                      chapter 2.2.1 LED diodedescription

                                      and later MWD description. It means you do not communicate with the devices. Which is also notable that there is no output when you run the server by hand.
