node-red-contrib-hdlbus

Node-Red implementation of HDL BusPro (SmartBus) protocol http://hdlautomation.com - forked from node-red-contrib-buspro, based on smart-bus.

The motivation for creating this node set was to fill a perceived gap in functionality. This package provides:

• state storage of devices - all level updates are stored in a JS object
• input/output nodes for device channels
• input/output nodes for universal switches
• a get node for device channels (based on stored values)
• a button color node to change the LED color of the new capacitive touch buttons
• a panel brightness node to facilitate dimming panels eg. at night
• input/output nodes enabling the creation of a virtual HVAC device
• raw nodes to allow you to craft messages to send/receive anything on the HDL network

This is by no means perfect - happy to hear any suggestions.

BusPro-Controller

The node that holds connection to IP Gateway of BusPro (Smart-Bus) network (or broadcast address if using broadcast).

Config

defaults: {
            host: {value:"",required:true},   // HDL SmartBus gateway IP 
            port: {value:6000,required:true,validate:RED.validators.number()},    // and port, default: 6000 
            subnetid: {value: 1, required: true, validate: RED.validators.number()}, // Connector address in HDL network (Subnet ID)
            deviceid: {value: 99, required: true, validate: RED.validators.number()} // Connector address in HDL network (Device ID)
        }

hdl-channel-in

Trigger flows based on pre-determined channel/level messages.

Output Payload

{ "level": 0 }

hdl-channel-out

Send channel level request.

Input Payload (Optional - used to override/specify any values)

{
    "address": "1.50",
    "channel": 1,
    "level" 100
}

hdl-channel-get

Returns the current level of a given channel. This is obtained from the level store maintained by watching events (rather than requiring a request/response to get the current level).

Input Payload (Optional - used to override/specify any values)

{
    "address": "1.50",
    "channel": 1,
}

Output Payload

{
    "address": "1.50",
    "channel": 1,
    "level" 100
}

hdl-uv-in

Trigger a flow based on a pre-determined uv switch change.

Output Payload

{ "state": false }

hdl-uv-out

Send UV switch request

Input Payload (Optional - used to override/specify any values)

{
    "address": "1.50",
    "switch": 1,
    "state" true
}

hdl-btn-color

Send request to update button color. This commands supports updating both the on and off colors independantly. This does not survive a device reboot.

Input Payload (Optional - used to override/specify any values)

1. White
2. Red
3. Green
4. Blue
5. Orange

{
    "colorOff": 1
    "colorOn": 4
}

hdl-panel-brightness

Send request to update panel brightness (1-255). Note that low brightness values can impact the colors that can be produced.

Input Payload (Optional - used to override/specify any values)

{
    "address": "1.50",
    "brightness": 1,
}

hdl-virtual-hvac-in

Listens for HVAC request messages targetted at the specified address (eg. if you're emulating a HVAC device at 1.51, use 1.51 in the address field) and outputs the data as a JSON payload

Output Payload

{
    "acstatus": 1, //Status: 1 on, 0 off
    "acno": 1, //AC No, set in DLP
    "setupmode": 1, //Mode: 0 Cooling, 1 Heating, 2 Fan, 3 Auto, 4 Dry
    "setupspeed": 0, //Fan Speed: 0 Auto, 1 High, 2 Medium, 3 Low.
    "temperature": {
        "type": 0, //Type: 0 celsius, 1 farenheit
        "now": 21, //DLP Temprature
        "cooling": 21, //Cooling Temprature
        "heating": 21, //Heating Temprature
        "auto": 21, //Auto Temprature
        "dry": 21 //Dry Temprature
    },
    "modeandfan": 48, //Mode and Fan always 48
    "currentmode": 21, //Current Mode Temprature
    "sweep": 0 //Sweep
}

hdl-virtual-hvac-out

Accepts a JSON payload (must be complete) and transmits to the broadcast (255.255) address with a source of the specified address (eg. if you're emulating a HVAC device at 1.51, use 1.51 in the address field).

Input Payload

{
    "acstatus": 1, //Status: 1 on, 0 off
    "acno": 1, //AC No, set in DLP
    "setupmode": 1, //Mode: 0 Cooling, 1 Heating, 2 Fan, 3 Auto, 4 Dry
    "setupspeed": 0, //Fan Speed: 0 Auto, 1 High, 2 Medium, 3 Low.
    "temperature": {
        "type": 0, //Type: 0 celsius, 1 farenheit
        "now": 21, //DLP Temprature
        "cooling": 21, //Cooling Temprature
        "heating": 21, //Heating Temprature
        "auto": 21, //Auto Temprature
        "dry": 21 //Dry Temprature
    },
    "modeandfan": 48, //Mode and Fan always 48
    "currentmode": 21, //Current Mode Temprature
    "sweep": 0 //Sweep
} 

hdl-raw-in
