Support for Fibaro FGBS-001

I wonder if this module is going (or allready is) supported.
It offers 2 great things:
1: it supports multiple DS18B20 temperature sensors
2: it has 2 inputs which can trigger 2 relais (1on1)

I haven’t tried the temp sensors, but the 2 input lines work as expected :slight_smile: Cute little device…

#3

How is it translated to the vera interface?
Is it pulsed or when the contact is open/ close the status is changed when the input is changed?

#4

You can configure the contacts to respond with either normally open or normally closed.

Do anyone with a bit of electronic knowledge know how to hook up the universal sensor with this water-flow sensor:

Thanks

Unfortunately the Fibaro sensor can only detect digital on/off signals, or the 1-wire temperature sensor. I don’t see how you could interface the two modules. Sorry.

Whilst wondering how to get readings from pulses inputs (e.g. flow sensors), I did a bit of searching. I found this device from RFXcom. http://www.rfxcom.com/sensors.htm#PulseMeter

You would also need something like the RFXtrx433 interface and relevant Vera plugin to receive the data. Please do share with the forum if you do find a solution that works for you. Thanks.

I have this module placed in the boiler room. Reads the temperature of 4 DS18B20. It’s running on Vera Edge UI7. I would like to use it as a flood detector. Is it possible using input IN1 or IN2?
