Home automation: BTicino, OpenWebNet, SCS bus

OK... So, if I take for example A=1 PL=2 for my 'Lounging' Scenario, this won't create any conflict wiht my Light with the same address (A=1 PL=2) ?

Yes I have the Bticino Video Door Entry Control, but it is very disappointing. When someone rings, my phone rings as well but the image cannot be sent ! Image quality is also very disappointing.

Honestly, my installator plugged the cables, and I have installed the whole virtual part! I'm using Myhome Suite, so Virtual config. My installer never sold a Bticino MyHome installation before. That's his first.  It was me to ask him for installing Bticino. He wanted me to buy KNX, but I KNX is more for big companies and big buildings.

Don't think so but haven't tried. Scenarios can also have button numbers and some have short press, long press options too. eg I use the short press and long press options with the HD4680 to get two scenarios for each of the four buttons.

Mine is working SFERA day/night door video with 300X panel. Also, the screen 10 shows the vidoe too. App on phone works as expected. Can see who is calling, answer in two way conversation and open the door.  Which causes some confusion when someone rings the door bell and I answer to say I am not at home lol

Video quality is just about adequate. Looks better on the Screen10. Did we discuss this before re. wifi range?

Hope you got a discount

I looked at KNX too but thought it was more learning than I wanted for a noob like me. Also, it costs more. Some installers around here will do both, others specialised in one or the other. It's odd that it doesn't appear to be an option that's discussed much in the UK. Perhaps these threads will raise some UK interest in BUS systems for the home.

I also have Sfera day/night and 300X. Yes can be we already discuss this.

You will have test and let me know As said before I try to keep addresses different and there is more address choices for some of the scenarios so I have not got any conflicts anyway. CENplus CEN etc I think its OK but .... not sure. I can take look on myhome suite if like because its so long ago when I set it up I forget what I have  and its a bit hazy what I did.. but it works..

Actually I'm using the Iphone App MyHomeUp, but I have lot of problems to connect from outside. Sometimes the gateway is not found even if I have a 4G connection.

OK.. Is it worth separate thread for this too or maybe we are done? Its not that complicated.  The main reason for the separate threads is that I hope others will easily find the topics and help with the discussions.

Some open questions from my side. How to configure the door camera? My installer did it and I wasn't there to see what he did. there is some usb port but I do not see the dorr video hardware from MyHomesuite.

Main issue is the Screen10 shows a 'stair light' button next to the video. I want to remove it but I think it comes from the camera set up. Also, I am not happy with the security but maybe we should discuss that via PM if you like. There is a weakness in the system but my installer says they are all like that!! Want to know more PM me. I do not want to discuss security weakness openly here and it could just be my installer does it wrong!!
