LCNSerial Binding

This binding provides support for an LCN-Bussystem - with a serial interface LCN-PK (or maybe LCN- PKU? ) The binding ist tested on a Windows10-PC and a Raspberry-Pi using a LCN-PK Modul with a USB-Serial cable. The serial-Port can be configured with the Thing configuration.

In this first release, all Things (LCN-Modules) must use the same COM-Port.

Supported Things

The binding defines a single thing type called lcnActor.

An lcnActor requires the single configuration parameter port, which specifies the serial port that should be used.

Configuration

The configuration for the LCNSerial consists of the following parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description
port	String	The serial port where the LCN-PK is connected to. (e.g. Linux: /dev/ttyUSB1, Windows: COM2)
lcn_id	int	LCN-Address of the LCN-Module
Shutter1_enabled	boolean	Does the LCN-Module has a Relais-Modul connected with Shutter1 connected?
Shutter1_drivetime	int	Time in seconds the Rollershutter needs to close the window/door 100%
Shutter1_overalltime	int	Time in seconds the Rollershutter needs to come to the end-position
Shutter2_enabled	boolean	Does the LCN-Module has a Relais-Modul connected with Shutter1 connected?
Shutter2_drivetime	int	Time in seconds the Rollershutter needs to close the window/door 100%
Shutter2_overalltime	int	Time in seconds the Rollershutter needs to come to the end-position
Shutter3_enabled	boolean	Does the LCN-Module has a Relais-Modul connected with Shutter1 connected?
Shutter3_drivetime	int	Time in seconds the Rollershutter needs to close the window/door 100%
Shutter3_overalltime	int	Time in seconds the Rollershutter needs to come to the end-position
Shutter4_enabled	boolean	Does the LCN-Module has a Relais-Modul connected with Shutter1 connected?
Shutter4_drivetime	int	Time in seconds the Rollershutter needs to close the window/door 100%
Shutter4_overalltime	int	Time in seconds the Rollershutter needs to come to the end-position

Usage of rollershutters

Rollershutters in LCN are typically connected to a "LCN-R8H" or "LCN-R4M2H" modul.

2 Relais are used:

• 1 for setting the power
• 1 for defining the direction

LCNSerial currently supports up to 4 shutters - inclusive a position handling (realized by timers)

Note: This is a trigger channel, so you will most likely bind a second (state) channel to your item, which will control your physical light, so you might end up with the following, if you want to use your button with a Hue bulb:
