ZXT-120 AC control VD
By baskalex
This is a simple VD+Scene to control ZXT-120 AC controllers. I use it because of 2 factors:
1) You can control everything on one screen instead of 3 devices in HC2 interface
2) it is visible in Home Center app (ZXT-120 is not visible natively yet)
It supports heating and cooling modes and fan speed. You can see current status as well.
Setup is very simple:
VD - just put ID of the child device of ZXT-120 which controls temperature into the "Port" field of VD
Scene - You have to put IDs of three child deviced of ZXT in the triggers field annd the same ID into "Options" part of the scene. Also put VD ID inn the "Options" part.
Maybe it can be useful for some of you.

[VD+Scene] Advanced Alarm Clock
By J3R3M
Advanced Alarm Clock
First release on the French board in March 2019.
INTRODUCTION
This VD+Scene Bundle will help you to wake up in better shape by simulating a smooth dawn with any device in your HC2 : Roller Shutters, lights devices and VD.
After the ignition at the value that you have set up in the VD, the scene can fade one or more speakers. The curves for light and audio fade in can be choosen separately.
The scene manages itself if it's day or not. So, for each light you will set up in the scene, you can decide if it has to be active everytime, or only when it's day or only when it's night. For example, you can set up a Roller Shutter which is active only if it's day!
This Bundle can be used as much as you want, just by adding it again and creating a new Global Variable for each new bundle set.
THE SCENE IS ABLE TO MANAGE
Roller Shutters (FGR22, FGR223...) Dimmers (FGD211, FGD212...) Switchs (FGS211, FGS212, FGS213...) RGBW Devices (FGRGBW, RGBW Controller 1, RGB Controller 2) RGBW Programs (Any Fibaro's programs) Home Center Scenes Any Light VD (Philips Hue, Ikea TRÅDFRI...) Any VD clickable Any Audio VD (Sonos, Yamaha Multicast or any else...)
INSTALLATION
Most of explainations are in the scripts.
Create a Global Variable which starts with REVEIL_ (what means alarm clock in French ?) and import the Virtual Device you want (12h or 24h).
VD CONFIG
-- Manageable Alarm Clock Scene Id local SceneID = 193; -- Which room will this VD Manage ? Must be the same than the Scene local ROOM = "ROOM"; -- Days Off local DaysOff = {"Saturday","Sunday"}; -- By defaut, this scene will be launched to have full light at the time set up in the VD : Actual Hour - Dawn Time -- Change this var to anything else if you want to trigg the scene at the hour H. local StartScene = "DEFAULT"; -- Icon's ids local icon_ok = 1156 local icon_wait = 1158 local icon_off = 1160 SceneID : ID of the scene Advanced Alarm Clock ROOM : Value corresponding to the Global Variable you created DaysOff : List here all your days off within quotes marks, separated by commas. Take care of the uppercase at the beggining of the days names! StartScene : Start the scene to have the full ignition at the time set in VD (DEFAULT), or start to begin the dawn's simulation at the time set in the VD (anything else) icon_ok : ID of the icon which will be displayed when the scene is triggered and active icon_wait : ID of the icon ID which will be displayed when an alarm is set and waiting to trigg the scene icon_off : ID of the icon which will be displayed when the alarm is disabled Note: In this Virtual Device, you have to change 3 times the variable's value of ROOM, corresponding to the Global Variable you have created before : REVEIL_ROOM.
VD USE
Press on : will display 12:00 (or 07:30am in the 12h version). This can be changed by anything else with the variable ClickHour in the corresponding button Sound Volume is in percentage (Act on sliders) Audio fade-in is in seconds Light's Power is in percentage* Dawn's duration is in minutes Once button sets the alarm for the next avalaible scheduele, regardless of the day (DayOff or not). The alarm will automatically be disabled after the dawn's ignition Week of job sets the alarm for everyday, without the days set in the variable table DaysOff. Scene will automatically be launch until it's manually deactivated Recall will recall every parameters set before last VD deactivation Alarm OFF will save every actual parameters and disable the alarm * Rollers Shutters will open at the same time than others lights devices, but will not been affected by Light's Power parameter
I thought it was better to be able to choose the power of lights, without having a half opened roller shutter.
SCENE
local ROOM = "ROOM"; -- Room code corresponding to the Global Var created local StartVolume = 15; -- Which Speakers volume value the fadein will start at (percentage) local CurveLight = "linear"; -- Which function will be used to fadein light keys local CurveAudio = "linear"; -- Which function will be used to fadein speakers keys BASIC SETTINGS
ROOM The famous variable wich has to be the same in the Scene+VD StartVolume could be useful if you don't want to start audio fadein from 1. CurveLight & CurveAudio Curves that will be used to fade lights and audio. See the following image to have a better understanding Note1: If you comment a Curve Variable, the curve will be randomly choosen
Note2: The curves are possible thanks to the great work that Robert Penners made in 2001.
POSSIBLE CURVES : Linear + Robert Penner's Easing Equations
-- Debug Vars local debug = 1; -- 1 Enable / 0 Disable local lang = "en"; -- Debug lang local DisplayNamesorID = "ID"; -- Display DeviceName + RoomName (Names) or Type + ID (ID) on each Debug line local DisplayNamesAtStartup = 1; -- Display Rooms & Names at scene startup (1) or not (0) local DisplayRGBWValues = 1; -- Display RGBW Values increasement when fading in (1) instead of only multiplier (0) local DayLightDelay = 60; -- After sunrise/sunset, it's still daylight for .. mn local VolDiffMin = 5; -- Minimum difference between Start Volume and Volume set in VD (in case of Start Volume > Volume set) local LimitDebugLines = 1; -- Limit number of Debug Lines to 4 max per device and to 20 max per roller shutter -- Changing next var values may seriously impact the scene local CheckAlarmMode = 1; -- Check if the alarm is set and not just memorized before starting sthis scene local DisplayScenesNames = 0; -- Display Scenes Names in debug (1) or not (0)! Active this function may delay the script local tempo = 1; -- Pause between two actions in LightsAction and SpeakersAction functions (s) - It' not recommended to change this value DEBUGS SETTINGS
debug lang DisplayNamesorID DisplayNamesAtStartup DisplayRGBWValues DaylighDelay VolDiffMin LimitDebugLines CheckAlarmMode If this var value is set on 0, this scene will be able to be launched manually with stored values, even though the VD displays None DisplayScenesNames tempo Note: everything explained in the script!
ADDING YOUR DEVICES
Add a Roller Shutter (FGR) Parameter "steps" is needed to set how many steps this roller shutter will do to open (to protect motors of 100 steps) table.insert(LightsList, {typ="Shutter", id=279, steps=6}); Add a Dimmer (FGD) table.insert(LightsList, {typ="Dimmer", id=10}); Add a RGBW device (FG-RGB) : To fade a choosen color with RGBW parameters (Set this color at full range, scene will fade this value from 0 to the value set in VD) table.insert(LightsList, {typ="RGBW", id=20, r=150, g=100, b=0, w=255}); Add a RGBW Program : To set a RGBW program, just use "program" parameter Add "start" parameter to manage when this program will be started during the light fadein (in percentage) If no "start" parameter is set, program will be started at the beginning of the scene table.insert(LightsList, {typ="Program", id=20, program=3, start=50}); Add a switch (FGS) Add "start" parameter to manage when this turnon action will be done during the light fadein (in percentage) If no "start" parameter is set, action will be done at the beginning of the scene table.insert(LightsList, {typ="Switch", id=49,start=100}); To add a VD If it's a light VD : Parameter "slider" needed to manage brightness table.insert(LightsList, {typ="VD", id=298, slider=10}); "btn" paramater can be added to set a color preset before the fadein (Be sure that the VD brightness for this button is set et 1%) table.insert(LightsList, {typ="VD", id=298, slider=10, btn=6}); If it's not a light VD (with brightness slider) : Just indicate "btn" parameter table.insert(LightsList, {typ="VD", id=298, btn=6}); Add "start" parameter if you want to manage when this button will be pressed during the dawn fade in (in percentage) table.insert(LightsList, {typ="VD", id=298, btn=6, start=50}); Scene : To start a scene Add "start" parameter to manage when the action will be done during the light fadein (in percentage) If no "start" parameter is set, action will be done at the beginning of the scene table.insert(LightsList, {typ="Scene", id=254, start=50}); To add Speakers VD : One action per key Example for an action on the slider 15 of the VD 245 table.insert(SpeakerAction, {id=245, slider=15}); Example for an action on the button 6 of the VD 245 table.insert(SpeakerAction, {id=245, btn=6});
Note: This is an extract of the scene. So you will find it in the scene to help you if needed
One line = One device
LightsList typ = Shutter id Roller Shutter ID steps Number of steps which will be done by the roller shutter (to preserve shutter's motor). 2 mini / 20 maxi typ = Dimmer id Device ID typ = VD id VD ID slider Slider number to manage light power btn* Button to push start* When the button have to be pushed during dawn"s ignition (if not set, the button will be pressed just before acting on slider) typ = RGBW id Device ID r Red Value(0-255) g Green Value (0-255) b Blue Value (0-255) w White Value (0-255) Note: Please write the parameters for a full power. The scene will calculate the values needed from them
typ = Scene id Device ID start* At which percentage of the dawn's ignition this scene will be started. 1 will be use by default if nothing is set. typ = Switch id Device ID start* At which percentage of the dawn's ignition this switch will be turned on. 1 will be use by default if nothing is set. typ = Program id Device ID program ID of the program to launch start* At which percentage of the dawn's ignition this program will be started. 1 will be use by default if nothing is set. SpeakerAction id VD ID 2nd parameter = Button Type (One or the other) with this button number slider Number of the volume's slider btn Number of the button to push Note: This actions will be done in the order you declare them in the script
Note: items with * are not mandatory
MODE PARAMETER
This parameter is not mandatory. If not set, all your keys will be used to fade the dawn. You can mix modes and no modes keys!
For each light key, if you want to see it lighting only when it's day, just add mode="day", or mode="night" if you want to see a key lighting only if it's night.
To use a key everytime : no mode or mode="both".
WHERE CHANGE GLOBAL VARIABLE "ROOM" VALUE
At the beginning of the scene In the "Once" Button of the VD In the "Week of Work" Button of the VD In the "Alarm OFF" Button of the VD At the beginning of the Main Loop of the VD Note: Please take care of this changement of value.

Yeelight Manager
By ojc
VD YEELIGHT MANAGER
Originally released on domotique-fibaro.fr
v. 1.3.0 - 14/01/2018
I present the VD Yeelight Manager which, as its name suggests, allows you to integrate Yeelight products with the HC2. To be very precise, I only have a Bedside Lamp and I have not tested this VD with other products. However, since the API is generic, there are no reasons that it does not work too. The only limit, I did not integrate in the DV management of the background light since the Bedside Lamp does not have such a light.
To use it, simply enter the IP of the Yeelight in the IP field of the DV, and the port in the Port field of the DV (the port used by the Yeelights is 55443). You can add or change elements of the virtual device according to your needs (the white light bulb does not need, for example, anything related to color management), as long as the TCP Connection and Transmission buttons keep their respective names (btnTCPConnection and btnTransmission). Yeelight Manager will find them himself by these names.
In order to be able to manage a Yeelight 'almost' like a module, simply insert in the scene or the code of the button or Main Loop the following code:

_y:call(id, method, params) which allows to send a command to the lamp. The various buttons of the VD give examples. To go further, please have a look at the Yeelight API documentation : Yeelight_Inter-Operation_Spec.pdf _y:get(id, property) which does exactly the same thing as fibaro:get() _y:getValue(id, property) which does exactly the same thing as fibaro:getValue() _y:getModificationTime(id, property) which does exactly the same thing as fibaro:getModificationTime() _y:getStatus(id) which returns "online" if the lamp is connected to the wifi network, and "offline" otherwise _y:getLastChange(id) which returns a table containing the properties that have just been modified and their new value
The logs generated by the call () function are displayed in the debug zone of the scene (do not forget the _y: log () line and allow enough instances) or in the button or main loop of the virtual module from which the function was used.
To use these lamps as scene triggers, the VD automatically creates a global variable y_yeelight_XXX, where XXX is the ID of the VD. This global variable contains all the properties of the lamp and is updated in real time.
For example, to start a scene when a Yeelight is turned on:
--[[ %% globals y_yeelight_XXX --]] _y={credits='Yeelight Controller v. 1.3.0 - Copyright 2018 Olivier Meyer - GNU GPLv3',global='y_yeelight_global',item='y_yeelight_',props={power=true,bright=true,ct=true,rgb=true,hue=true,sat=true,color_mode=true,flowing=true,delayoff=true,flow_params=true,music_on=true,name=true,bg_power=true,bg_flowing=true,bg_flow_params=true,bg_ct=true,bg_lmode=true,bg_bright=true,bg_rgb=true,bg_hue=true,bg_sat=true,nl_br=true},f=fibaro,debug=function(s,m,c)s.f:debug(string.format('<span style="color:%s;">%s</span>', c, m))end,here=function(s)local h=type(s.f.getSelfId)=='nil' if h then return h,__fibaroSceneId else return h,s.f:getSelfId(),_elementID_ end end,log=function(s)local h=s:here()if h then local a=s.f:args()if a then if a[1].yeelight then s:debug(a[1].debug,a[1].color);s:debug(a[1].command,a[1].color);os.exit()end end end end,getBtn=function(s,i,n)local c,r=0,api.get('/devices/'..tostring(i))['properties']['rows'] local x=#r for a=1,x do local y=#r[a].elements for b=1,y do c=c+1 if n==r[a].elements[b].name then return c end end end s:debug('[Yeelight] Unable to locate button '..n..', check virtual device '..i,'Tomato');return nil end,build=function(s,m,p)local c='{"id":1, "method":"'..m..'", "params":['for i=1,#p do if type(p[i])=="number"then c=c..p[i]else c=c..'"'..p[i]..'"'end;if i~=#p then c=c..', 'end end;c=c..']}\r\n'return c end,load=function(s,v)local g=s.f:getGlobalValue(v)if string.len(g or '')>0 then local d=json.decode(g)if d and type(d)=='table'then return d else s:debug('[Yeelight] Unable to process data, check variable','Tomato')end else s:debug('[Yeelight] No data found!','Tomato')end return nil end,set=function(s,i,d)local g=s:load(s.global)if g[tostring(i)]then local a,b,c=s:here();g[tostring(i)].scene=a;g[tostring(i)].id=b;g[tostring(i)].button=c;g[tostring(i)].command=d;s.f:setGlobal(s.global,json.encode(g))end end,call=function(s,i,m,p)local b=s:getBtn(i,'btnTransmission')if b==nil then return nil end;local c=s:build(m,p)s:set(i,c)s.f:call(i,'pressButton',b)end,getValue=function(s,i,p,g)if s:checkP(p) then if type(g)~='table' then g=s:load(s.item..i)end if g.properties then if g.properties[p] then if g.properties[p].value then return g.properties[p].value end end end s:debug('[Yeelight] Unable to get value of '..tostring(p)..', please check variable.','Tomato');end return nil end,getModificationTime=function(s,i,p,g)if s:checkP(p) then if type(g)~='table' then g=s:load(s.item..i)end if g.properties then if g.properties[p] then if g.properties[p].modificationTime then return g.properties[p].modificationTime end end end s:debug('[Yeelight] Unable to get modification time of '..tostring(p)..', please check variable.','Tomato');end return nil end,get=function(s,i,p)local g=s:load(s.item..i);return s:getValue(i,p,g),s:getModificationTime(i,p,g)end,getStatus=function(s,i)local g=s:load(s.item..i)if g then if g.status then return g.status end end return nil end,getLastChange=function(s,i)local g=s:load(s.item..i)if g then if g.last then return g.last end end return nil end,checkP=function(s,p)if not s.props[p] then s:debug('[Yeelight] '..p..' is not an existing property!','Tomato') return false end return true end} _y:log() local function run() --executed on light on end local trigger = fibaro:getSourceTrigger() if trigger.type == "global" then if trigger.name == "y_yeelight_XXX" then if _y:getLastChange(XXX)["power"] == "on" then run() end end end423 downloads

Heating
By szmyk
Heating VD, which I use especially when I go on winter holidays.
On the day of departure we have no time to adjust heating, so a few days before using this VD I set the date/time when the heating should be turned off and date/time when it should be turned on again. Of course you can use this VD everyday just to turn on/off heating or to set the heating timer on/off.
When it turn off the heating it just turn on vacation mode for every zone.
Features:
instant turn on/off the heating in all zones set the date and time when the heating will be turned off and/or turned on _ - change on/off setting time ❌ - clear timer ♻️ - refresh button - you don't need to touch it. It's called programmatically displaying the current state (on/off) sending push messages about changing heating state (by scheduler)
Customization:
change the VD labels to your own language set mobile device id to get push messages about changing heating state -- USER MODIFICATION local pushDeviceId = 0 -- mobile device id to send push messages local scheduleFreq = 1 -- [min] -- END OF USER MODIFICATION Screenshot:

Sleep Timer & Scheduler
By szmyk
Initially it was supposed to be a simple Sleep Timer, similar to what we have in TV but later I added some new functions and now it is a simple Scheduler and Sleep Timer in one VD.
Features:
Sleep Timer - just set the time after which the device will be turned off or turned on Scheduler - set the time when the the device should be turned on and the time when the the device should be turned off (or in the reverse order - first turn off and then turn on) Filtering devices - you can choose only devices with turnOff action attribute Filtering rooms - you can choose only rooms which have devices with turnOff action attribute _ - change on/off setting time ✔ - add device to schedule ❌ - remove device from schedule; triple click to clear the schedule Refresh button - you don't need to touch it. It's called programmatically Displaying the current schedule Logging the events to debug window: add, remove, turn on, turn off automatic support for plugins with turnOff action attribute support for custom virtual devices and plugins instant turn on/off (VD and plugins also) presenting the current device state ( ⚡ when the device is on, and - when is off)
Customization:
change the VD labels to your own language change the texts in the Refresh button code and in the main code: local lT = { newLine = "<br/>", -- change to "\n" if you use this VD on iOS mobile mainly or " " for Android scheduledDevices = "Scheduled devices" } Actually there is a problem with breaking lines in labels, so you can choose new line char. More details here.
add your own virtual devices or plugins in main loop code:
local extraDevices = { -- deviceId, commandOn, parameterOn, commandOff, parameterOff ["335"] = { "pressButton", "2", "pressButton", "3" }, ["339"] = { "setVolume", "20", "setMute", "" }, } icons:

VD - Switch CCGX Relais .lua
By Pflug
VD - Switch CCGX Relais .lua
A VD that can switch the AC-Out2 relais of the Victron inverter
One can not directly switch the Quattro relais,
therefore I used the “Venus GX Relais 2” (currently NOT used) and connected it to the contacts of the “AUX inputs of the Quattro inverter
and you have to install an assistant on the Quattro to do the final switching o the Relays.

Checking devices connected to the WI-FI network
Checking devices connected to WI-FI
We create a global variable, for example TabletSony
Then we import the Tablet_Sony_WI-FI virtual device after loading the device, we change the name according to our own needs, e.g. phone of the wife, etc., enter the IP address and port of the device to be checked if it is connected to the local network
tcpSocket = Net.FTcpSocket ("192.168.1.009", 8071) - ip address and device port
bytes, errorCode = tcpSocket: write ("test")
local device = 743 - virtual device id
if errorCode == 0
then
fibaro: call (device, "setProperty", "currentIcon", 1181) - id of the ON icon
fibaro: setGlobal ("TabletSony", "1"); - we create a global variable called eg TabletSony
fibaro: log ("Sony ON tablet ..os.date ("% H:% M ")) - displays the status of the device and the time on the notification bar
else
fibaro: call (device, "setProperty", "currentIcon", 1179) - id of the OFF icon
fibaro: setGlobal ("TabletSony", "0");
fibaro: log ("Sony OFF Tablet" ..os.date ("% H:% M")); ")) - displays the device status and time on the notification bar
end
Sprawdzanie urządzeń podłączonych do WI-FI
Tworzymy zmienną globalną np. TabletSony
Następnie importujemy urządzenie wirtualne Tablet_Sony_WI-FI po załadowaniu urządzenia zmieniamy według własnych potrzeb nazwę np. telefon żony itd. ,wpisujemy adres ip i port urządzenia które ma być sprawdzane czy jest podłączone do sieci lokalnej
tcpSocket = Net.FTcpSocket("192.168.1.009", 8071) -- adres ip i port urządzenia
bytes, errorCode = tcpSocket:write("test")
local device = 743 -- id urządzenia wirtualnego
if errorCode == 0
then
fibaro:call(device, "setProperty", "currentIcon", 1181) -- id ikony ON
fibaro:setGlobal("TabletSony", "1"); -- tworzymy zmienną globalną o nazwie np. TabletSony
fibaro:log("Tablet Sony ON "..os.date("%H:%M"));-- wyświetla na pasku powiadomienie stan urządzenia oraz godzinę
else
fibaro:call(device, "setProperty", "currentIcon", 1179) -- id ikony OFF
fibaro:setGlobal("TabletSony", "0");
fibaro:log("Tablet Sony OFF "..os.date("%H:%M")); "));-- wyświetla na pasku powiadomienie stan urządzenia oraz godzinę

BLE Detector - Presence detector based on iNode LAN and BLE devices
By macjoker
Features
The virtual device communicates with iNode LAN, receives and decodes information about all BLE devices available nearby. This allows tracking user presence if small BLE tags are attached to their belongings (like notiOne with a bunch of keys, e.g.).
What you need
iNode LAN - it can detect any Bluetooth 4.0/4.1 device (Bluetooth Low Energy = BLE) BLE tag (iNode Beacon , TrackR , notiOne , etc.) Installation
Configure your iNode LAN to use unicast or broadcast for sending datagrams (UDP packets) Go to the Setup page. For "BLE IP address" put your HC2 IP address (unicast) or broadcast address (192.168.1.255e.g.). For "BLE IP port" you may leave the default value (20000). Create a new virtual device (BLE Detector). Update IP Address and TCP Port (use the same values as for iNode LAN in step 1). Create a new scene (BLE Users). Update config values in the scene (provide names and MAC addresses of persons and their belongings).
That's all to make it work!
Now you can use global variables you have defined in Lua scene (users variable) to check if a person is away or home.
Want to tweak it? Sure!
There are more options. Please read all the comments in the source code.
You may try to:
define MACs of devices to ignore in discovery (your iNode LAN itself), define signal values for IN/OUT events (separately for each user), define the timeout value for each device (this also makes user away), turn on/off debug messages. Zip file content
Virtual device: "BLE Detector". Lua scene with user detection configuration: "BLE Users". Device icon for iNode LAN. FAQ
What are these scripts missing?
Only basic information is decoded from BLE datagrams (counter, MAC address, and signal strength). If you use iNode Sensors you will not get additional values (like temperature, pressure, magnetic or movement changes).
Why is it better than other solution (x) of presence detection?
It does not depend on any movement in your house, which can make many false positives - a running dog e.g. (x = motion sensors) It is independent of other devices. HC2 communicates directly with iNode LAN. (x = RaspberryPi to read iNode and press some virtual buttons in HC2) More stable results (x = python script from iNode website; explained below).
The Python script published by iNode manufacturer for presence detection uses only signal strength. That means to detect that someone is leaving we need to use some (lower part) signal range to have the record of going away. This additionally reduces the signal range for detecting "being home" (higher part of the signal range) and can give effect to the person appearing and disappearing all the time.
To avoid that we also check the latest timestamp of the device activity. Owing to this feature we may extend range signal for "being home" to all possible values, and use only timeout to decide whether a person is home or not (set "-100" to both signalIn and signalOut in users config to achieve that).
What messages should I expect to get from working device?
Here are some logs of the working device...
[DEBUG] 23:29:58: No: 35216 MAC: 00:12:6F:E0:BB:DB Signal: -16 dBm [DEBUG] 23:30:03: No: 35217 MAC: C0:36:A0:DC:87:99 Signal: -79 dBm [DEBUG] 23:30:08: No: 35218 MAC: 00:12:6F:E0:BB:DB Signal: -16 dBm [DEBUG] 23:30:09: No: 35219 MAC: C0:36:A0:DC:87:99 Signal: -79 dBm [DEBUG] 23:30:12: No: 35220 MAC: C0:36:A0:DC:87:99 Signal: -69 dBm and the scene:
[DEBUG] 23:30:21: MAC: C0:36:A0:DC:87:99 Signal: -79 (dBm) Time ago: 0 (sec) [DEBUG] 23:30:21: MAC: DF:12:45:F7:40:65 Signal: -84 (dBm) Time ago: 30 (sec) [DEBUG] 23:30:21: Gienia is home [DEBUG] 23:30:21: Zenek is home [DEBUG] 23:30:24: MAC: DF:12:45:F7:40:65 Signal: -84 (dBm) Time ago: 0 (sec) [DEBUG] 23:30:24: MAC: C0:36:A0:DC:87:99 Signal: -79 (dBm) Time ago: 3 (sec) [DEBUG] 23:30:24: Zenek is home [DEBUG] 23:30:24: Gienia is home Is it a stable solution? Can you share any experience about it?
For my configuration, I am using two pieces of notiOne. They are really tiny, the batteries are supposed to stay alive for about a year (from my experience it was usually about 6 months). Additionally, you can track them whenever someone with BLE and their App is near.
The results I get in my flat, where walls are made of silicate blocks, are quite stable. iNode LAN can detect these notiOnes with the weakest signal (-90 to -88 dBm) from a distance of 7-8 meters even through two silicate walls (24cm + 12cm thick). So placing iNode LAN in the middle of the flat covers the whole area.
My iNode LAN works with firmware version published in December 2017 ("FW date: Dec 14 2017/09:10:32"). I had no issues about it for more than 18 months right now. It is stable. I even use it as a power failure indicator: it is not plugged to UPS (whereas HC2 and NAS are), so when the device disappears from my LAN, I know there is something wrong with the power line.
Is there any way to extend Bluetooth range for iNode LAN? My house is too large for a single device of that kind.
Well, the device range is connected to Bluetooth limitations. If you need a larger area to be covered with BLE devices detection you could use more then one iNode LAN device. Each device should use a different global variable for storing detected BLE events (BleDevicesA, BleDevicesB, ...). The best way to merge these results would be an updated Lua scene, which could analyze more variables and properly select best data (i.e. select stronger signal if the same BLE tag is seen in many iNode LAN devices). This is not supported with the current version of Lua scene.
Another (not so nice, but quicker to achieve) workaround for that could be duplicating not only the BLE Detector VD but also the BLE Users scene. Each scene copy should have different global variables for users (like: isZenekHomeA, isZenekHomeB, ...) and additional code can interpret these variables to get final detection value (local isZenekHome = isZenekHomeA or isZenekHomeB or ...)

Airly Status - Air Quality Sensor based on Airly.eu (API 2.0)
By macjoker
Device features
Periodic reports on air quality for a defined location.
Be warned about the smog conditions at your place instantly.
Advantages for everyone
Automatic status update. Custom interval value for update queries. Manual update is also available (via button). May use "interpolation mode" (enabled by default in Lua scene). Airly gives you an option to calculate estimated values for any location near their stations, to see more then just what is exactly measured by the station. You may select the language used for Airly messages. Polish and English are supported. Colors to visualize Smog description. This will work on PC only. The mobile app does not interpret HTML tags. Icon color is changing according to air quality measured. The colors are in correspondence with Airly recommendations. One of three different air quality indexes from Airly might be selected. Airly supports: "AIRLY_CAQI", "CAQI" and "PIJP". Each may have different levels, descriptions, and pieces of advice. Customizable location for reports. The location might be read automatically from your Home Center box or it might be set as a fixed one. Data retrieved from Airly are stored in a global variable. The variable might be used to trigger another scene.
Advantages for geeks
Using the newest API 2.0. Missing pieces of data from Airly are properly detected and do not stop the device from working. No label "flickering" ("50%" → "missing data" → "52%", e.g.) on data updates. Changes on any update are reported once. Clear information about the license (MIT). Make any changes you want, distribute, sell or whatever. Just include my name and the copywrite information. Easy to change labels content, data grouping within labels, etc. (data selectors within one config variable labelConfig). Source code easy to maintain and develop: rich debug information; separation of acquisition, extraction and data presentation, etc. Installation
Import the virtual device and create a new Lua scene with the code provided in the file. Add device icons and update their IDs in the virtual device main loop. Replace 'xxx...x' with the key you can get from Airly free of charge. Start the Lua scene manually (just for the first time). (optional) Customize: update interval, display language, labels content and many more (see details below). Configuration
Read comments in Lua scene and VD main loop.
Each configuration parameter is described there in details.

How can I get Airly API key?
Get one from developer.airly.eu. When you register an account within that website you will get your free API key.
How to upload/add device icons?
Open (any) virtual device configuration page. Press "Change icon". Press "Select file" (in the bottom), choose file, then confirm with "Add" button (even lower). Please make sure to execute step 1 properly. Icons in Home Center are divided into several categories. If your icons are placed not in the "virtual device collection", they will not be visible for the device.
How can I get an icon ID?
Open (any) virtual device configuration page. Press "Change icon". Right click on the icon you want to get an ID. Select "Open graphics in a new tab". The address should be like: "http://hc2/fibaro/n_vicons/User1003.png". 1003 is your ID in this case. How can I change the language for all displayed information?
Change config variable in Lua scene. Only "pl" and "en" messages are supported by Airly API. Update display name of each label. Update labels content (if needed) by editing labelConfig variable in VD main loop. There is the same string formatting as for the Lua print function.206 downloads
