I have bought the popp z-weather device to open the blinds when there is heavy wind.
According to the device and z-wave binding documentation, z-weather is sending a command on all devices in association group 2 when there is heavy wind.
Unfortunately, the roller shutters in group 2 only close instead of opening. According to other posts in other forums this can’t be changed.
Now my question: did anyone still realize a solution for such a scenario with popp z-weather or z-rain to react on heavy wind or rain and send a specific command to another z-wave device?
I could also use the rules function for the velocity item but this is being updated not frequently enough.
I am running on openhab 2.5 and would like to control fibaro roller shutters when there is heavy wind.
Wouldn’t it be possible to add your OH Z-Wave controller to association group 2 of your Popp device to get the BASIC_SET value from the Popp device into OH and then into a rule?
Sorry for the slow response - I’ve been away with extremely limited internet access over hte past 12 days or so.
Please can you provide a log showing the report that is sent by the device so we can work out how to handle this. Probably as @anon71759204 suggests we can add a channel here, but I need to understand the data that is sent to decide what type.
If the manual is correct , ‘too much wind’ should generate a BASIC_SET 0 (as long as the command associated to group 2 hasn’t been changed by an ASSOCIATION_COMMAND_CONFIGURATION …). There doesn’t seem to be a BASIC_SET for ‘no/normal wind’ though.
