Hello, this guide is very good. Thank you. I have A Question. I have communication between Arduino -> OpenHab. I'm sending temperatures from Arduino to OpenHab and from OpenHab send status ON/OFF for relay in Arduino. I'm sending The Temperatures every 10s and then I have ON/OFF from Openhab every 10s and it is adverse. How can I edit Arduino sketch?

Thank You

Yeah I tried minicom. Data was coming perfectly there. And why do i need to convert it. Cant i get the data directly in number form

I tried this with a number type item but was uabke to make it work. I tried the following code.

In openhab - Number arduino "arduino[%d]" {serial="/dev/ttyAMA0@9600"}

In arduino-Serial.print(i)

Serial.println(i)

Serial.write(i)

I tried all these but nothing seemed to work.

I am controlling a servo with the arduino and want to semd the servo angle from openhab to the arduino. The servo will be acting as a dimmer.

Hi,

I have tried above project in eclipse(linux x64) serial binding is not responding. should i change anything to use in eclipse ide.

1)I have added the rules at the end of demo.rules file.

2)and these 3 items

String Arduino "Arduino [%s]" (arduino) {serial="/dev/ttyACM0"}

String Arduino_weight "Weight [%s]"
String Arduino_temperature "Temperature [%s]"

in demo.items file

Nice detailed post.

I like the warrior minion.

I also like your approach using serial communication links between the devices. Keeps things simple and you can check everything sent and received easily.

Great Stuff, finally I am making a bit of progress with my HomeAutomation project - Thanks to you!

However, here is practical a question:

If I have, a disconnect between the Arduino and the OpenHAB system, I do not manage to get the connection to the serial port again.

All I get in the OpenHAB log is a: "Write action failed! Input/output Error"

Is there a trick on OpenHAB, to keep Serial Ports alive or reconnect logically every few Minutes, when there has been a glitch?

Great update,

You sure picked the right Minion for the job.

Really good tutorial thanks.

Is it possible to get a zip with the configuration folder please because I am having some problems with displaying my items please?

Thanks Eric & shabaz, we had a great day, and are now enjoying our honeymoon.

PS: don't tell my wife I was here [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-fce8e2ae-c3cc-4612-8b3b-8639df633533/2402.contentimage_5F00_3.png:16:16]

I'm getting married next week, and let's say my Minion bride would not appreciate it if I dared to take my laptop along on our honeymoon

Wishing you a happy conjugal life! [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-fce8e2ae-c3cc-4612-8b3b-8639df633533/7774.contentimage_5F00_1.png:16:16] May you always find love and hope into the company of each other.

Very nice.

Boy have you been a busy Minion.

Good luck with the other project and yes " would not appreciate it if I dared to take my laptop along on our honeymoon " you're probably going too far there.
