Many devices, will homey support them?
Hi, I allready have a lot of (domotica) devices, but before I pre-order I would like to know if Homey can support them.
3 Sunscreens @ 433.92 MHz. How can I teach homey how to use them? Is that the same idea as with a IR remote? "Aiming" the 433 Mhz remote to homey while he's in a "learning" mode?
Philips Hue (28 lamps, Livingwhites plugs and lightstrips all over the house)
Nest Thermostat
Dreambox receivers (enigma 2)
Kwikset Kevo Doorlocks (Bluetooth 4.0)
Skybell Doorbell
Netatmo Weather station with rain meter.
Apple TV's
KAKU (Klik aan Klik uit)
Rumba robot cleaner (in the video I get the impression it works, but does it really?)
EnOcean PTM 210/215 switches @ 868Mhz (Same question about learning as the sunscreens)
(I'm probably forgetting some things, but the one above are the most important ones)
And is it possible to make the homey do an action when he receives a mail?
Reason for that question is, I have a home security system with Ubiquiti UVC camera's and the software can send a mail upon movement and I would like the Homey to switch on lights or switch on the TV to simulate that someone is home.
And, infrared devices in different rooms, do I need a Homey for each room or will/is there a expansion module for each room with a IR transmitter?
Thanks,
Mark.

GEEK EDITION: You will receive Homey, plus two wireless transceivers, enough jumper cables to hook it up and early access to the SDK including sample code for your Arduino projects!
Estimated delivery: May 2015
Ships anywhere in the world
We aim to make 433 and 868 as easy as IR, but the technology is a little bit more difficult to replicate. Do you know what brand your sunscreens are? (i.e., we are currently working on Somfy support).
Philips Hue will be all supported. You can even manage them in rooms really easily with Homey
Nest is supported too
Netatmo is supported, as is KAKU. Roomba works with the addition of Thinking cleaner, who have a wifi interface for specific Roomba series.
We also aim to support the rest of the devices, but some guys are more open with the communication protocols and APIs than others. This means that integration will come, but they might not all be available at launch directly.
Homey is able to react on mail. For this, you can either use the mail-app of Homey, but we are also looking at integration with external IFTTT flows (in IFTTT: if mail, then Homey action 1 - in Homey: on IFTTT action 1, do stuff[like TV or lights])
At the moment, placing a Homey in every IR room gives you the best experience. We are looking at IR blasters though, but they might not be supported at launch.
The Kickstarter rewards were limited to the Kickstarter time period, last June. Right now, you can pre-order at www.athom.nl for 299, but also still have the option to go geek by paying 10 extra for wireless transceivers and Arduino code.
Best,
Stefan
The model is a LRS 2142/A 433,92 MHz
Here I found the tech specs (in Dutch) of the receiver.
http://www.seav.it/sites/default/files/prodotti/schede_tecniche/Lrx 2142 NL.pdf
I have 2 "RTS" (433MHz) Somfy motors and 2 "IO" Somfy Motors and would like them to control together.
Any insight on my SEAV receivers?
Won't the price for the Homey go up in that time? (End of pre-order time)
I have a homewizard heatlink. I want to use the heatlink if possible.
For my it is to difficult, but if somebody would try it they may use my heatlink...
Thanks, as soon as I have received the USB dongle I'll post the results.
I have these also, so happy to read that these are going to work. These also work on my current homecontrol device.
But is Velux io-home 868mhz going to be supported also? This is currently are not supported by my current homecontrol device.
If yes, I will order my Homey asap. :-)
What is the difference between IO and RTS? Besides the used frequency
Pooof...
I got the device
@RobinVanKekem.
RTS is 1-way signal.
IO is 2-way signal, newer technique, bigger range, etc.
@Emile
I have the USB DVB-T/DAB reciever
See the topic I linked to @Goldwing
Thanks
is this still the way to go if I want to decode 433 to help support other 433 senders/receivers?
then I am going to buy a RTL2832 stick....
Who at Athom can answer this question? Can I do usefully research to get things I have at Home working with the mentioned stick and software to analyse 433 transmitters I have and maybe create applications?
The initial post from @Emile is very old (April 2015...) and the second tip from Emile said: is removed from the forum ....
So is the RTL2832 stick + merbanan/rtl_433 software the key to success?
