openHAB Native Binding for Souliss

OpenHAB is a vendor and technology agnostic open source automation software. A native binding is available in order to control and collect data from a Souliss network.

The code for networking activities of this binding is based on SoulissApp code. It use the same approach getting from the gateway node the network structure and the relevant data. You can use SoulissApp and the openHAB binding binding at same time.

General Configuration Requirements

Prerequisites

In order to use this binding a little knowledge of openHAB is required because it offers services on top of the openHAB platform so you have to deal with its characteristics and requirements. The best is start with the http://www.openhab.org/gettingstarted.html and https://github.com/openhab/openhab/wiki openHAB wiki. Once done, use the demo configuration only to ensure that your openHAB is working fine, then delete it and create your own configuration as follow.

Overview

A minimum openHAB configuration requires fours files:

  • The Souliss binding for openHAB (is a Java plugin)
  • The binding network configuration
  • The .items file to define the items (also known as Typicals in Souliss)
  • The .sitemap file to define how the user interface will look like

As main difference while using [AndroidApplication SoulissApp] is that you have to define your user interface, declaring how many Typicals (Items in openHAB) you have and which is their purpose. [AndroidApplication SoulissApp] is rather able to collect those information automatically.

Binding Network Configuration

The openHAB binding isn't able to locate your Souliss gateway as Android Application SoulissApp does, so you should specify the networking information in the configuration file as follow.

Edit .\openhab\configurations\openhab.cfg

Add at the bottom:

The following parameters need to be changed:

 Parameter   |            Description                    |   Range
-------------+-------------------------------------------+----------+
 IP_LAN      | The IP address of Souliss Gateway node    |    -     |
 USER_INDEX  | Identify the index of the openHAB binding |  1 - 100 |
 NODE_NUMBER | Identify the node of the openHAB binding  |  1 - 254 |
-------------+-------------------------------------------+----------+

Please ensure that each user interface (SoulissApp, openHAB, ...) must have a different USER_INDEX and NODE_NUMBER, those values are used to identify the interface. You can get the values used by !SoulissApp from the Networking menu.

NODE_NUMBERS has to be set as the number of nodes that build your souliss network; if your network is composed by 7 nodes (the App lists them as node0-node6) sets it at 7.

Configure .items file

Define your Souliss deployment inside openHAB. To do this, you'll have to statically map your device inside openHAB environment.

Edit .\openhab\configurations\items\defaultSitemap.items

define your own items and add to the end of each line of definition

{souliss=<Typical>:<nodeID>:<slot>:[<bit>]}

where Typicals can be T11, T12, T13, T14, T16, T18, T1A, T22, T31, T51, T52, T53, T57, D98, D99 (more will be supported in the future)

An example of the .sitemap configuration files is below, consider that openHAB has its own syntax for the configuration files.

Service Typicals

In order to track the health and timestamps two service Typicals has been introduced: D98 (Health) e D99 (Timestamp), those are not defined in Souliss sketches and are only available on the binding.

Use them as :

{souliss="D98:<nodeNumber>:998"}
{souliss="D99:<nodeNumber>:999"}

Example:

Number HEALTH_Node1_GF_Service "Health Node 1 [%1d]" <keyring> (Diagnostic, TechnicView_Node0) {souliss="D98:0:998"}

String TIMESTAMP_Node1_GF_Service "Timestamp Node 1 [%1$td.%1$tm.%1$tY %1$tk:%1$tM:%1$tS]" <keyring> (Diagnostic, TechnicView_Node0) {souliss="D99:0:999"}

Download Binding Java Binary File

The binding is a Java plugin that you should place in .\openhab\addons folder. Is actually available only from our [Download] page.

Restart openHAB

At this time you can restart your openHAB runtime, then the integrated web server will be available and you should be able to control your Souliss nodes through it.

Using a WebKit enable browser (like Chrome or Firefox) open the link

http://openHAB_IP_ADDRESS:8080/openhab.app?sitemap=YOUR_SITEMAP_NAME

If the browser is located on the same machine where you are running the openHAB runtime, you can use 127.0.0.1 as openHAB_IP_ADDRESS.
