Windhager Heizung Werte über IP abfragen

[Fendt43]

Ok, i just installed that. Now i've got the loxone nodes on the left side and I'm receiving the numbers from Loxone. How can i connect the input from Loxone to the inject button?

Create a Virtual Input in Loxone. It can have any input range, but I have chosen an arbitrary range of 0 to 5. Importantly, it must have 'Use in User Interface' checked. I have many links to Node-Red under a single Category that contains a wealth of data flow. I don't have any interest in seeing the values but they must visualised to work with Node-Red.



'Save in Miniserver' and check you can alter the value via the Loxone App.




In Node-Red, drag in a Loxone 'control-in' node. Click in the control-in node and select the Miniserver entry and 'add new loxone-miniserver'. Select the edit button and add the credentials for the Miniserver including IP, Port, Loxone Username and Password, Token etc.





Select Update, then do a Deploy in Node-Red. From this point, you should be able to link anything that is visualised within Loxone.

Now select the Room and Category created earlier with the test Virtual Input. A list of Controls will show in the drop-down. Select the desired Control.





Drag a debug onto the Control-in node and Deploy. Then you should see values update in Node-Red as you change the value in the Loxone App.




Note you need to 'Save in Miniserver' before any new controls will be visible in Node-Red. I'll follow-up with the specifics of the Windhager integration when I get a chance.

Ok thanks, I managed it to get the values from Loxone to Nodered. How can i forward the value to the inject button?

[Tico]

Try this flow connected to your existing control-in node -

Thank you very much! Now it works perfectly fine!

Hello Fendt43 . I'm interested if you could try something else -

The Loxone Virtual Input doesn't work with Windhager because of the Digest Authentication on login. That's what originally required the use of Node-Red for the authentication routine when requesting data.

I haven't tested the Loxone Virtual Output to see whether that is similarly afflicted with non-existent handling of Digest Authentication. There might be a remote chance that outbound commands can be made directly with Loxone.

Can you try setting up a Virtual Output and feed it with a numeric value appropriate to the OID?

The Virtual Output properties would look like this -





Then change the value fed into the Virtual Output and check what response occurs.

[Fendt43]

Hello,
I just had time to try this method, but sadly this doesn't work. There is no response on the Windhager surface. Probably because of the digest-Authentication again. But thanks for your effort here!
