Hi Guys, does Z-Wave Qubino Weather Station Plus work with Fibaro OK?

I doubt so since it requires the USB key and Fibaro HC2 does not support 3rd party USB device inserted into it.

If i read the manual correctly the usb key needs the usb port only for powersupply. So any poweradapter with a 5 volt usb output (

Like the one used to change a telephone) should be ok.

All the communication between the usb adapter and home center II is z-wave based.

If the home center II supports this usb adapter correctly after inclusion we will have to ask fibaro. I did not find any information regarding this.

It is more like: "If an unknown usb device is plugged into HC2, how will the HC2 behave?"

 

Lots of question marks: 'Will HC2 become unstable? Will HC2 behaves erratic? Will the close proximity z-wave usb key from Qubino interfere with HC2's z-wave receiving and transmitting?"....

 

If the Qubino weather station usb key indeed only requires usb for power, then I would rather connect it elsewhere which can provide usb 5v power (e.g. Aeon Micro Switch 6) than to the HC2 directly.

You get it all wrong. USB device must be plugged to power supply and not to controller. See picture:

if you read my comment correctly i already stated that  the usb key only needs usb  for power.

my conclusion was already that the usb device should not be inserted in the homecenter II, butr that a  usb  telephonecharger would work.

 

i do wonder why Qubino made this design choice and decided not deliver the usb changer  with the product.

ok i guess we are clear on the usb controversy, now - did anyone get this setup to work with HC2?

no to open new thread... does anybody have qubino weather station?

[robw 116]

Pinging this thread.

 

Fibaro, is the Qubino Weather Station supported? I'm very interested in this product and would like to use it with my HC2.

 

Cheers,

Is this device/product working properly on fibaro HC 2?. 

[kroeatschge 29]

hey @Abu Azzooz, @robw, @lukaszpiech,

 

Yes, I  have a qubino weather station and the device is working good in HC2.

No, it does not have a template and I don't expect one to arrive the next 2-5 years.

 

Please refer to this thread by tinman, he attached a PDF with instructions on how to get started.

 

have fun.
