Fw: Re: Heatmiser - advice please?!

[Gareth Cook <g@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Im more interested in getting the data into Comfort (and therefore
Homeseer)

I use HS just for logging - I could never trust a PC to run the home !

Gareth,



I am looking at the Heatmiser stats and would ideally like to integrate
them
into homeseer.

Homeseer has a thermostat API and there is a document detailing the
heatmiser protocol, so it would be a matter of writing a driver that
translates the API calls to serial commands. I'm sure it is possible, but
not that easy.



Mark

You reckon with a 485 to 232 dongle we could talk to heatmiser via say
Comfort or HomeSeer quite easily ??

Hi Noel,

I couldn't find anything better than the heatmisers. I've just bought
a bucket load more for the rest of the rooms. I just need to find time
to complete the sw side of things... rather than have to ssh in to
turn on the heating.

Anyway, does this post/thread help?

Note you need a serial->485 dongle (quite cheap) and there are people
around here somewhere with UI sw (VB etc.) if you aren't in to C hacking.

Cheers, Bruce.
