Control your KNX and KNX Secure intallation via Node-Red! A bunch of KNX nodes, with integrated Philips HUE control and ETS group address importer. Easy to use and highly configurable.

INTRO
WELCOME BACK!
TODAY WE PIPE HUE LIGHT LEVELS INTO KNX WITH THE HUE LIGHT SENSOR NODE.

PREREQUISITES
SELECT YOUR KNX GATEWAY IF AVAILABLE.
SELECT THE HUE BRIDGE CONFIG.
MAKE SURE THE HUE LIGHT SENSOR IS ONLINE.

IO OVERVIEW
NO INPUTS.
ONE OUTPUT DELIVERING LUX VALUES USING DPT NINE POINT ZERO ZERO FOUR.

KNX MAPPING
PICK THE GROUP ADDRESS FOR LUX DATA.
THE DROPDOWN FILTERS TO THE CORRECT DPT.
NAME THE SENSOR FOR EASY IDENTIFICATION.

HUE DEVICE PICKER
TYPE THE SENSOR NAME AND CHOOSE IT FROM AUTOCOMPLETE.
THE NODE SAVES THE HUE RESOURCE ID.

STARTUP READS
ENABLE READ STATUS AT STARTUP IF YOU WANT AN INITIAL VALUE AFTER DEPLOY.

NODE PINS
USA L'OPZIONE ENABLE NODE PINS PER MOSTRARE O NASCONDERE L'USCITA.
ANCHE SE NASCONDI I PIN, IL NODO CONTINUA A MANDARE I MESSAGGI.

RUNTIME
HUE SENDS LUX UPDATES.
THE NODE CONVERTS THEM AND EMITS NUMERIC PAYLOADS SUITABLE FOR KNX.

BEST PRACTICES
SMOOTH VALUES WITH A FUNCTION NODE BEFORE WRITING BACK TO KNX.
USE WATCHDOG ALERTS IF LIGHT LEVELS STAY OUTSIDE A RANGE.
LABEL THE NODE WITH SENSOR LOCATION.

DEMO IDEAS
LOWER BLINDS WHEN LUX EXCEEDS THIRTY THOUSAND.
BOOST CORRIDOR LIGHTS WHEN LUX FALLS BELOW FIFTY.

WRAP UP
WE MAPPED THE GA, SELECTED THE SENSOR, AND ENABLED STARTUP READS.
