Hi there,
now my second Fine Offset WS1080 died, and I am fed up using HW with a working time of max. 3 years.
Therefore I bought myself a new weatherstation (outdoor sensor Homematic HmIP-SWO-PR-pro) which seems to fullfill my requirements.
The central base station of the Homematic system (868MHz) is based on a Raspberry 3 running Linux and on top of it the proprietary Homematic SW (open source code, though).
No I'm looking for a way to:
1. Let Cumulusmx run on the Homematic Base Station (CCU3). This should be possible WITHOUT mono in any way .. I heard that .NET should be avalable under Linux too?
Does this also work for Cumulus MX now ?
2. Get the relevant weather data out of the Homematic system via an internal API and let it process through CumulusMX in the usual way.
Has anybody already done this or thought about it ?
Any hints how to do it in the easiest way ?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
regards, Willyweather

Re: Integration of Homematic IP weatherstation into Cumulus MX
I can't help with the other points, but what I do know is that mono IS .NET for Linux. So to run a .NET application on Linux you will need Mono. See the Mono website for reference.willyweather wrote: ↑Mon 16 Sep 2019 7:27 pm1. Let Cumulusmx run on the Homematic Base Station (CCU3). This should be possible WITHOUT mono in any way ..

I cant disagree about your comments regarding the WS-1001 and its variants though the newer generation of Fine Offset stations and sensors are considerably better and employing some impressive technology.
See www.ecowitt.com for the commercially available range

Re: Integration of Homematic IP weatherstation into Cumulus MX
Hi there, thanks for your comments.
@freddie: you are probably right and this was my misunderstanding. What I don‘t like about mono is, that only one specific (older) version has been working together with Cumulus regarding the German locale („Umlaute“) ... it was a real mess until I got my system working again after changing from debbie to jessie (or vice versa ).
Anyway, this problem doesn‘t exist any more since I can‘t use mono or .Net or cumulus on this Homematic system at all. This is what I learned in the last two days.
@technodribble
Yes, probably there is a lot better HW available now, but I have bought this Homematic sensors half a year ago already, since I knew, that my FO station would break sooner or later, which happened last week.
-> unfortunately I will have to go other ways and will probably not be able to use Cumulus in the future
Regards,
Wilfried
