Procedure would be something like " IF Hamony activity changes to X, THEN user maker channel to call url to turn on dummy switch in Domoticz."ītw, seen the comments in the "cheap chinese z-wave device" topic concerning NEO plugs? I'd be very careful with what kind of hardware / situation I'd use those (I have two as well).Screen Shot at 14.09.37.png 912×734 131 KB Maybe something could be built via IFTTT service (which can be linked to Harmony), but I suspect there is some delay as well. In any case, in my situation I'd do as described in the previous reply, but as it requires specific hardware it of course isn't a universal solution. Ok, I see the logic now Then you probably also need to add some delay for the receiver commands so that it will accept them after powering on. So on powerOff the devices go off (here no problems) and on PowerOn activity, the plugs/devices should be turned on automagicly. I'm sure similar approach is possible with other IR receivers as well.įreemann wrote:What I try to accomplish is that my receiver/TV is only on when the activity needs it.īecasue my receiver has a standby usage of >20W, I want to kill it with a NEO smartplug. I have a Flirc IR receiver (Flirc is recognized as keyboard and you can link any IR command to any key press or combination of key presses) hooked up to my RPi which receives the IR commands and then I use triggerhappy (comes with Raspbian) to link the certain key press pattern to a json call to Domoticz. Create blockly/lua script that is based on the change of this dummy switch.
Learn the command to IR receiver and then link it to trigger a json command to turn on a dummy switch in Domoticz.ģ.
#ADD FLIRC TO HARMONY MANUAL#
Add a manual IR command to the "when activity starts" section in Harmony.Ģ. but in case I was in a similar situation I would probably try this (requires that you can receive IR commands and trigger Domoticz actions from those).ġ. Is this then something you cannot add to the Harmony activity? I don't think there is any easy way to tap into the "changing activity" unless some major forking is done for the Harmony hardware plugin.Īgain, I don't know what it is that you exactly want to achieve. The net, not sure exactly what you need but there are so many ways that you will probably be able to make it work with a little effort.įreemann wrote:I want to switch my receiver just after pushing the button on my remote OR switching activity in Domoticz. That said, you can easily run an event in domoticz such that the switch triggers first and your harmony event triggers next after a second or 2. I believe I can het the harmony to wait for a little until everything switches on but I haven't gotten around to that yet. Since my plugwise modules are attached to a different rpi that from domoticz, it takes some time before the power switches on (usually 1-2 seconds also because the media box needs time to wake up). Then a second button on my remote switches all the devices on. In my harmony, I have created a dummy device that I have attached to a long press of one of the remote's buttons (in the harmony hub, i created a device I don't have that domoticz sees and uses to switch the plugwise plug). I have a separate dummy switch that triggers a script that controls the plugwise plug.
#ADD FLIRC TO HARMONY TV#
My setup is that I have my TV set (amp, TV, UPC media box) behind a plugwise switch that switches everything off when on stand-by (on stand-by, most of these media boxes still draw 30W which is a waste IMO). Not sure I entirely understand but I'll try to answer anyway.
