PLCBUS

[hari]

It looks like this device converts X10 and PLCBUS Rf to PLCBUS powerline signals:

PLCBUS-T4023UK PLCBUS Encrypted RF Transceiver

...but I'm not 100% sure. Anyone know for sure?

I have a load of X10 rf switches and sensors (EU and US frequencies) which I would need to interface into LMCE with low latency to then control PLCBUS kit.

it converts PLCBUS RF and X10 encrypted RF

there is also a PLCBUS-4808 X10/PLCBUS Transfer Interface

Chris,

That transceiver looks like it receives the ENCRYPTED X10 messages.. like the ones from alarm sensors..

I think you'll probably have more luck with the PLCBUS-4808 X10/PLCBUS Transfer Interface on the same page.
That will act as a 'bridge' between X10 and PLCBUS.  If you need to receive RF X10, then simply plug in a X10 RF receiver. (I'm sure you have one of those around).  That will take the RF X10 and put it on the powerline, which will then be converted by the PLCBUS-4808 X10/PLCBUS Transfer Interface.

Anyone looking for Status Update on PLCBUS, please see: http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=3863.0

Almost done!

That's great to hear!  Perfect Timing...

Hi Devs,

update from the PLCBUS front:

Mr Lightz (aka ddamron) implemented bidirectional communications today. Manual control from a "crystal scene controller" now updates the device state and that gets reflected on the floorplan.

KUDOS Mr. Lightz!!!

the code is in the testing sqlCVS repository.

best regards,
Hari

awww Thanks Hari!

Yes, it is coming along nicely.
