Home Automation example of creating your own control algorithms for system eHouse
Smart Home , intelligent Building eHouse allows you to create your own overlay ( application running on a PC on eHouse system server ), which makes it easy to create your own individual programming algorithms using our software template EhouseLogAnalizer in Delphi .
eHouse Home Automation .
Thanks to the stability of today’s PCs and Windows is unproblematic and continuous operation management eHouse smart house software additionally monitored by the application KillExec.exe .
In the case of hangs or errors the application is closed and started again without user intervention to the system.
When Window and eHouse system is properly configured, it is possible to maintain the continuity of the smart home software on the PC for many months.
Competent writing control software system smart home eHouse requires sequential checking of measurements changing ( and sending appropriate control events if necessary – once) .
When writing your own control algorithms with software, create a flag confirming the execution of the event to senselessly not repeatedly send the same event: for example, every 2 seconds to close the blinds that are already closed .
Applications can be assigned to several of Timers :
first – The main example at 10 seconds updating the data controllers .
Another – values dependent on the volatility of the phenomenon :
eg . for control of blinds , awnings in relation to the outside temperature and light level may be a few minutes .
In the case of drive control blinds , gates , awnings , windows, etc. can be used reed relays connected to digital inputs eHouse smart home controllers , confirming the closure and make control operations on the state of the inputs RoomManager , which is much better and truer than flag Sofware, whose value may be set incorrectly as a result of software bugs, or because of errors the drive ( not the closure of the , mechanical , block , etc.. ) .
Examples of the use of data from controllers in the application eHouseLogAnalizer ( in a repetitive loop working in increments of a few seconds)
