[Solved] KNX IP ROUTER 750

[brononius]

Hey,

To control my home automation, i've got a KNX IP ROUTER 750.
Basically, this convert my ethernet network with the EIB.

Can you give me a hint how i can insert this into linuxmce in order to work?

[Marie.O]

http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/EIB/KNX_with_eibd should be a good start.

[brononius]

Yes, indeed, that helped me started. I had contact with the maker of the eibd stuff since somewhere there was a mistake to start it (apperantly a file /tmp/eib wasn't created, but this has yet to be confirmed).

I was able to install the eibd with following:

Code: [Select]

/usr/bin/eibd -D -T -R -S -i -u --eibaddr=1.1.11 --daemon=/var/log/eibd.log ipt:192.168.111.21

In here, the eib addres for the IP gateway is the 1.1.11, and his IP is the 192.168.111.21.
I'm not sure if the eib address must be in there, but better safe then sorry?

All my lights are already working through the ETS software. So i'm focussing for the moment on 1 light, with the address 1/1/211.

I added this as a normal light (template 37).
Port/Channel Number is set to 1/1/211
But with the test command ON / OFF, nothing happens.

The thing that i'm not sure about, is the 'Controlled By: EIB' option. That EIB has been added by me (template 49), but i'm not sure if this is correct. I don't understand the wiki part about 'Use EIBd'. 
Because when i check my device tree, this has some COM setting. Is this correct?

In my eibd log, i just see some 'heartbeats?

Code: [Select]

I would suspect that once i click 'test ON', something extra should happen here?

[Marie.O]

1/2/211 <== is that the group address for ON/OFF

Did you follow this: <http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/EIB/KNX_with_eibd#Adding_a_light_switch>

EDIT: Another question: Are you running 1004 or 810?

[brononius]

It should be. :$

• ETS: To be sure, I've created new groups. Exactly the same as the example, and put the light (output) in there.
  But i'm a bit lost here. The wiki says "on/off" and "read status". In ETS, i can only drag/drop the output of the light in that group. So i'm not sure what must be done in here.
  I've changed the flags for this output to Communication/Read/Write/Transmit. Don't know if this has anything to do with it?
  So for 0/0/1 i've added OutputD of 1.1.31
  And for 0/0/2, I've added OutputD of 1.1.31
  
  
• LinuxMCE: In the PORT/CHANNEL number, i add 0/0/1|0/0/2

But nothing happens when i push the Test command ON/OFF.  
Shouldn't i see more details in the debug of the eibd when i push the but On/off in the webmin? Or is there another log that i can check if the communication is going correctly?

Version is 8.10

[brononius]

When i check the log-files, i see:

Code: (tail -f 37_EIB.log) [Select]

Since it's EIB over ethernet, there's something wrong?
Must i match somewhere the EIB drver to the eibd that runs in the background?
Or is this done automaticlly?

[Marie.O]

your setup looks correct. What you are experiencing is the fact that we still haven't packaged the EIB-eibd plugin.

Under http://deb.linuxmce.org/dists/intrepid/EIB you find the EIB device. Copy it into /usr/pluto/bin restart your system, and see what happens.

[brononius]

Under http://deb.linuxmce.org/dists/intrepid/EIB you find the EIB device. Copy it into /usr/pluto/bin rest...

Is it possible that this link isn't 100% correct? I'm not able to open it... 

[brononius]

Anybody an idea how i can go on with this?

Isn't there a log where i can see if the commands for the eib(d) are getting through?
Or is there something else i can try?



I really want to give linuxmce a try (i love the concept).
But if it doesn't work, it doesn't work... And i'll have to search for another solution. 

[Marie.O]

typo

http://deb.linuxmce.org/dists/intrepid/EIB

[brononius]

i don't see the difference... :$

Is it me, or does my computer read it wrong...

[hari]

this is the correct link: http://deb.linuxmce.org/ubuntu/dists/intrepid/EIB

[Marie.O]

Thanks hari - I must have been out of caffeine

[brononius]

Hey,

I can confirm, now the link is working.
And it seems that this does something more... I got some output when i now push button. More then he did before.
Now figuring out what i'm doing wrong.

Through a console, i run:   /usr/bin/eibd -D -T -R -S -i -u -t1023 ipt:192.168.111.21

By the webinterface (lights)

When i tried to activate (ON) the light:

[brononius]

Does anybody knows if something must be set in the 'IP router' itself in order to receive the commands?
I'm a bit afraid to change things on there. Don't want to mess up that thing, it's expensive enough...
