The previous two blog post, we added the EnOcean Transceiver module to a Raspberry Pi B+ and setup up FHEM home automation server and wrote python code taking advantage of the telnet port to blink some LEDs and capture the temperature from the EnOcea...
Hi there! Following the previous post and the issues I found with the TFT and the RF24, I´m happy to share that I managed to solve it. Rather than solving it, I have had to apply the workaround briefly introduced earlier this week: add a master node ...
How useful would a home automation system be where you could only interact through MQTT messages? Not very, so that's why we'll start working on the User Interface today. The goal is to create some generic UI elements, which can be linked to the MQTT...
