Protocol specification

Plugins & Plugin Development Arduino Sensor
#1

Hi,
I’m investigating the possibility of developing a OpenHAB binding towards the Arduino sensors. Is there a protocol specification somewhere? I guess I could reverse engineer the Vera plugin. In that case it would be nice if someone could provide a printout of a typical session,like system startup, inclusion, outbound command and inbound information reception of some sort.

Best regards
Anders

Hi Anders,

A RPI version of the gateway is under development (where you attach the NRF24l01 directly to the RPI). Maybe we’ll throw in MQTT support which should work fine with OpenHAB if I understand it correctly.

The serial protocol is pretty simple and not much logic more than offering time/configuration/unique radio id is handled by the vera plugin side.

If you want to take a shot you can have a look at the KNX binding or RPI branch:

MQTT support would be much appreciated!
