Hi

I Upgraded to HC2, but have not gotten it to work at all as it was intended.

Had before nexa control, that I could control the lighting in my home theater, where I use a Philips Pronto to turn off the lights when I press play and pause / stop to turn on the lights. How do I get the same function on HC2?

Next problem, I have old security cameras outside, these should I replace with new 720p outdoor bullet cameras example zmodo or who works with HC2?, They'd like to see in the same Fibaro app

Had hopes to see whole power consumption of the house in Fibaro app? I have a eliq Power meter

When this can become reality ???

Today I have many apps, to control things !

I have never heard of Philip pronto so I don't know. If it's on a nexa wireless frequency so prolly never. If it's ethernet then it could be done.

Security cams; There is a list, search for it in this forum.

Eliq power meter: same answer as the first.

I would recommend that you try to do 1 thing a the time and not all at once. there's almost surtain always a solution but they may take some time to figure out and there's always going to be obstacles and bugs to work around.

    Hi

    1. ir to z-wave controll is missing for z-wave, Nexa has some solutions like Jbmedia !

    2. I know the list, but it's mostly Indoors table PTZ cameras.

    3. ELIQ I hope there comes a plugin

    it seems to take time for everything here

    1) I would suspect that ir to z wave is a though nut to crack since ir is one way communication and zwave is two way. Could nexa do that? However the other way around is possible -zwave to ir. Say for example a cheap tablet computer could do the same things as your pronto. Can your pronto connect to wifi? Seems some pronto can conect to wifi networks and send custom commands? if that is the case then you prolly can use your thingie to controll zwave stuff.

     

    2) I suppose same manufactures also make propper cams? they should work.

     

    3) Power metering is dodgy with the hc2 v4 so far.

     

    "Forever" is relative but sometimes I do agree with you... I always seems to do things the oposite way, first find a solution that works and then figure out a problem to solve with the solution. I suppose my way of thinking really defets the purpose of automating your home since that is suppose to solve real problems instead of made up ones.
