How to send Date and Time from NTP to KNX

This example sends the current date and time from the NTP to the KNX binding

DateTime Date "Date & Time [%1$td.%1$tm.%1$tY %1$tT]" { ntp="Europe/Berlin:de_DE", knx="11.001:0/0/1, 10.001:0/0/2" }

Items:

0/0/1 is the GA for Date

0/0/2 is the GA for Time

Additional information on date and time formatting can be found here

How to get temperatures from OW-SERVER via HTTP binding

Requirements:

Instructions:

  1. Go to http://<ow-server-IP>/devices.htm and look for the ROMId-Value OW Server

  2. Add an Number-Item to your items-configuration like this one

// Example:
Number Temp_Kitch "Küche [°C](%.1f)" { http="<[Units=\"Centigrade\">(.*?)</Temperature>.*)](http://192.168.1.16/details.xml:60000:REGEX(.*?<ROMId>A7000002CC4D2228</ROMId>.*?<Temperature)" }

Replace the ip address and the ROMId-value with your data.

How to get humidity from OW-SERVER via HTTP binding

Device: OW-ENV-TH (EDS0065)

Example:

Number Humidity "Humidity [%.1f %%]" { http="<[http://192.168.1.16/details.xml:5000:REGEX(.*?<ROMId>C30010000027767E</ROMId>.*?<Humidity Units=\"PercentRelativeHumidity\">(.*?)</Humidity>.*)]" }

How to get contact from OW-SERVER via HTTP binding

Device: D2C (DS2406)

Example:

Number Door "Door [MAP(contact.map):%d]" { http="<[http://192.168.1.16/details.xml:5000:REGEX(.*?<ROMId>BD0000009D93DC12</ROMId>.*?<InputLevel_A>(.*?)</InputLevel_A>.*)]" }

You may want to change the query-interval (here 5000ms) to a few seconds. You can get the value for InputLevel_B, too. ;)

contact.map:
    0=open
    1=close
    -=UNKNOWN

How to turn on/off a switch from OW-SERVER via HTTP binding

Device: D2C (DS2406)

Example:

Switch Lamp "Switch [MAP(switch.map):%d]" { http="<[http://192.168.1.16/details.xml:5000:REGEX(.*?<ROMId>BD0000009D93DC12</ROMId>.*?<InputLevel_B>(.*?)</InputLevel_B>.*)]" }

This only reads the state of the switch.

switch.map:
    1=ON
    0=OFF
    -=undefiniert

To turn the switch on or off you need to define two rules: rule "Turn Lamp on" when Item Lamp changed to ON then sendHttpGetRequest("http://192.168.1.16/devices.htm?rom=BD0000009D93DC12&variable=FlipFlop_B&value=0") end

rule "Turn Lamp off"
when 
	Item Lamp changed to OFF
then
	sendHttpGetRequest("http://192.168.1.16/devices.htm?rom=BD0000009D93DC12&variable=FlipFlop_B&value=1")
end

How to read the status from a OneWire sensor DS2413 (2 port I/O)

item definition:

Number WindowContact1   "Window 1 is [MAP(contact.map):%s]"                  (All) { onewire = "3C.16AA13000000#sensed.A" }
Number WindowContact2   "Window 2 is [MAP(contact.map):%s]"                  (All) { onewire = "3C.16AA13000000#sensed.B" }

sitemap definition:

Text item=WindowContact1
Text item=WindowContact2

map file contact.map

1=closed
0=opened

Sample output for this definition would then be "Window 1 is opened" or "Window 2 is closed".

    Number Solar_AL_L2_Leistung "L2 Leistug [%.0f W]"  { http="<[http://pvserver:password@192.168.0.27/index.fhtml:60000:REGEX(.*?L2</u></td>.*?Leistung</td>.*? (.*?)</td>.*)]" }
    
    Number Solar_AL_L3_Spannung "L3 Spannung [%.0f V]" { http="<[http://pvserver:password@192.168.0.27/index.fhtml:60000:REGEX(.*?L3</u></td>.*?Spannung</td>.*? (.*?)</td>.*)]" }
    Number Solar_AL_L3_Leistung "L3 Leistug [%.0f W]"  { http="<[http://pvserver:password@192.168.0.27/index.fhtml:60000:REGEX(.*?L3</u></td>.*?Leistung</td>.*? (.*?)</td>.*)]" }

Make sure you replace "password" with your password and edit the ip address.

How to send commands to Telldus Tellstick

This a simple example of how to command your tellstick devices from Openhab. For event triggered inbound integration, check the Integration with other applications page.

Please note that if you use the inbound integration you must name you item td_device_<number> where <number> is the tellstick device enumeration as listed from command: tdtool -l. Obviously you also need to change enumeration after --on and --off in the exec binding.

Item definition:

Switch td_device_5 "Tellstick device 5" {exec=">[ON:tdtool --on 5] >[OFF:tdtool --off 5]"}

How to get power on a TV connected to HDMI with exec binding and update the status automatically

This is an example of how to power on a TV connected to the openhab server via HDMI. First you have to install cec-client utility on your host (you can see more details in [page)

The next thing is use the exec and the samsung binding (I can't switch on the TV with the samsung binding, and I can't switch off with the cec-client). My item definition shows like:

Switch  TV_GF_Living_TV_power  "Power"  (GF_Living_TV)  { exec="ON:/usr/local/bin/samsungTvStart.sh, OFF:/bin/true", samsungtv="OFF:Livingroom:KEY_POWEROFF, ON:Livingroom:KEY_POWERON" }

And the script /usr/local/bin/samsungTvStart.sh is

echo 'on 0' | cec-client -s

The next thing is automatically check and update the status. I use a shell script that I run every minute with cron. The script /usr/local/bin/samsungTvCheck.sh is

#!/bin/bash
OH_URL=[OPENHAB_URL]
OH_USER=[OPENHAB_USER]
OH_PASS=[OPENHAB_PASS]
OH_ITEM=[OPENHAB_ITEM]
RESULT=`echo pow 0 | cec-client -d 1 -s | grep "power status:" | awk '{ print $3; }'`

case $RESULT in
        on)
                curl --user $OH_USER:$OH_PASS --max-time 2 --connect-timeout 2 --header "Content-Type: text/plain" --request PUT --data "ON" $OH_URL/rest/items/$OH_ITEM/state
                exit 0
                ;;
        *)
                curl --user $OH_USER:$OH_PASS --max-time 2 --connect-timeout 2 --header "Content-Type: text/plain" --request PUT --data "OFF" $OH_URL/rest/items/$OH_ITEM/state
                exit 1
esac

and you can add a line to your cron (in linux systems) with the command

crontab -e
*/1 * * * * /usr/local/bin/samsungTvCheck.sh

Note that you have to change OPENHAB_URL, [OPENHAB_PASS and [OPENHAB_ITEM] according to your installation. This script update the status of the item, and you can see if your childs has switch on the tv ;)
