It is not a thermostat. There is an input on this for thermostat. This is a boiler control. Am I correct in assuming that I can use a fibaro relay unit to control the boiler? The Evohome TRVs are using the 868 MHZ frequency. This is the frequency us…

What added value it has what a homey based system cant provide? Please dont misunderstand me, I am not arguing just trying to get more input for the decision.
-
Thanks Bumblez. I had the impression that the boiler control is just and on/off thing, at least my existing boiler (will be replaced) works on that way. Yes indeed Honeywell Evohome is quite comprehensive system but right it is quite expensive too. …

I hope you have received the new PCBs. When you have fully assembled (with the cover on the top), could you please update us on the vertical range of the IR transmitters? https://forum.athom.com/post/quote/241/Comment_3699

It depends on your motor and wiring. Probably you need one these two: http://www.fibaro.com/manuals/en/FGS221-Relay-Switch-2x1.5kW/FGS221-Relay-Switch-2x1.5kW-en-1.4-1.7.pdf http://www.fibaro.com/manuals/en/FGRM-222/FGRM-222-EN-A-v1.00.pdf

I like the fact that he has misspelled the name his project twice

I agree with Ronald, the use of voice control is limited. Google Now is with us quite a while now, however I haven`t seen anyone using it except when they drive car or similar. If anyone is around it feels even awkward to talk to a non human. It is…

5 weeks lead time.* *Terms and conditions applies: “If everything goes well”. Anyway let’s suppose our homeys would be delivered in June we would not be able to use it as the software is still missing major apps/drivers. I would like …

On the linkedin page it says the course was in 2014 I think just as she used the name logo and other things for her project, Athom could also implement many of the ideas (if not all ).
-
The delay is 4 weeks not the lead time. New injection mould, new boards, new testing and December is short a month, issues with sourcing components at the end of the year. Not to mention that mass production will have its own issues. I reckon even …

Hi Jeroen, Thank you for replying and for your hard work. My arrangement is like this (which I think is not uncommon in a modern home): The walls are not always reflecting IR well and not all TV have sensitive IR receiver. Also it …

Of course without out the homey there no point to make app and now we know it was mock-up. Yes she is a UX designer, which is a very important link in a chain if you want a state of the art app (visually pleasing, easy to use and quick to access all…
-
Now I am worried again. If you will place it below the ring (which slightly projects out from the body) than that can limit the vertical upward distribution. If the homey is right below the wall mounted TV (in my case the distance would be 1 meter) …
-
The logo and the background is quite similar. And icons are not far from those what Ivo Derksen has used in his essay. The left bar reminds me on the app store. I like the voice command bar at the top, and the dashboard. I thought you know about it.

I like the user interactions in their app: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/future-home-self-powered-smart-home#/

I would not say it is redundant, it could complement it giving users a choice. I know there is a lot of effort in this app so I dont want to offend anyone just a constructive critic: The GUI looks 15 years old, this needs a serious revamp to make it…

Uhh, it is a design issue. I was always worried about this, and still worried about the vertical distribution of the IR signal. I have hoped that they have tested that after they have decided to remove the circular IR transmitter-receiver from the t…
-
Thank you for the update. I believe that honest and frequent communication is important so it is highly appreciated. The IR is important as many other domotica controller does not have that essential capability. Happy that it has been discovered in …

Being late with the software development that is an other matter...

Re. Robin: There is nothing wrong with that. That is typical part of the development process. And things like the rusting legs are completely out of their control. They chose a good looking item and the supplier let them down. The point is that mass…

And Nest Weave is not the same thing as Google Weave.

Apology for the two misconcept: I was sure that you will keep some voice commands on the homey (but at least I am not the only one who had this fague memory) and indeed the google offline speech engine is only available if you develop on android. Th…
-
I am not worried. I feel with you, last minute rush, sleepless nights. My point was that the app is important but the not the most important at this point of time.
-
To be honest there is not much use of a shiny app if you can hardly control anything with it (apart of some Zwave devices and the hue). If there are missing apps and drivers you cant go far with it. There are many drivers still missing (not even on …
-
Previously it has been told that Homey can store some predefined speech commands. On whos server and service we are depending on? The google speech to text engine works in an offline mode as well. Why needed to move away from that? In the case of i…

Ok. Will wait for the first batch users.

I dont speak dutch so I have skipped most parts of this video and you are right we know 85% of these. However we haven`t see the homey interface in action long time ago. There were quite few new things: how the app installation and un-installation w…
