Humidity, wind and other sensors for rgbw module


Question

Guest sk8er000
Posted

Hello everyone,

I'd like to use one of my rbgw modules with some sensors..

I know that I need a 0-10v sensor to be used with the fibaro module, but I'd like to know if someone know the exact models that work...

For example from my researchs I've found that one of the most common humidity sensor is the dht11 but I don't know if it works..

I've found the right rain and temperature sensors but I'd like to know what do you use for humidity and wind..

Thank you in advance

You need devices with analog output, dht11 has digital output.

device will do the trick. Remember to configure system properly before conecting new sensors. If you need to measure wind power you can use

    Thank you very much for your reply! Do you know if these sensors go in conflict if I connect them at the same module?

    There are 4 input but if I'm not wrong the gnd is in common

    You can connect all four inputs at the same time.

    Do you know if there is an online shop for these products?

    I'm afraid you need to contact manufacturer himself for that sort of information.

    Could it work something like that?

    Unfortunatelly range of output voltage of this module is too narrow for our rgbw contoller. If you don't want to use modules i listed above you should look for devices with 0-10V linear output.

    Ok, thank you, I'd like to use the sensors you listed but I can't receive answer from the sellers for buying them

    Maybe something like that?

    a client uses the PCE-FST-200-201-U and that works on his Fibaro, but it is not available on the app (on a Samsung S4).

    He expected it also on his app to be visible.

    Is this correct and a limitation on the App or does he need to do something else to make it visible?

    0-10V sensors connected to RGBW should work on Android just fine, I just checked it. Is it visible in web interface? Do you have possibility to check other mobile device?

    It's visible on the webinterface but not on the Samsung S4.

    The client uses the PCE-FST-200-201-U Windsensor 0.5 … 50 m/s, 0 … 10 V from PCE Instruments.

    So, that should work then? I need to ask to check it on a other phone.

    I checked it on my mobile device and it is there, so this seems like problem with specific phone, not analog sensors in general. Please give it a try on another device.
