With a xAP caching Lua applet running as a plugboard script on the HAH and one small python script for CACTI to use this indeed is possible. Setting up the xAP data cache The first step is to set-up and configure Lua script xapCacheWebserverApplet.lua which will cache an xAP data value and provide a URL for later accessing. text/html 2013-05-13T21:21:25+00:00 minerva9 http://www.dbzoo.com/livebox/hah?rev=1368480085&do=diff Navigate to the top level page for more information about all the components of this system. The Home Automation Hub (HAH) Project transforms the Livebox into one of the most capable and affordable Home Automation systems that you might imagine. The following features were proven to make this project a winner: text/html 2013-04-28T09:00:12+00:00 minerva9 http://www.dbzoo.com/livebox/universalrf?rev=1367139612&do=diff Requires a CHIP upgrade to the 328 Historically, the RF handling in the HAH was limited to a single protocol type, chosen from those that were supported. This was an annoying limitation. Further, we held rather a lot of 'static' data on the micro to define the pattern of the bits that were sent. text/html 2013-04-23T11:27:32+00:00 brett http://www.dbzoo.com/livebox/hah_hahnode?rev=1366716452&do=diff JeeNodes are RF enabled AVR328P boards using the same development tools as the Arduino. We love the JeeLabs weblog, jcw inspires us. As JeeNodes are RF based, they make a great way to RF enable a variety of functions. Importantly, the JeeNodes support reliable bi-directional RF comms, so we can both send commands to the JeeNode and receive information from it. text/html 2013-04-23T08:49:58+00:00 minerva9 http://www.dbzoo.com/livebox/resources?rev=1366706998&do=diff Various sites that have interesting information about the Livebox. * busybox - <http://busybox.net/> * AndyP site - <http://www.andyp.uwclub.net/livebox.html> * Telnet on the LiveBox - <http://bluetoad.net/livebox/> * French site - <http://www.porciello.com> - English translate * <http://oz.tuxaco.net/livebox.txt> * <http://darkfader.net/livebox/> * Busybox described by IBM - <http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-busybox/> * notes on 'hcitool' - <http://www.secuob… text/html 2013-04-13T10:07:28+00:00 minerva9 http://www.dbzoo.com/livebox/assembly?rev=1365847648&do=diff We added a small interface board which plugs in to the MMJ socket on the Livebox. This board holds an AVR microcontroller which interprets commands sent from the Livebox. Since the MMJ connection exposes 5V and Gnd, as well as the serial Tx and Rx lines (at 3.3V), connection to the micro UART pins is straightforward. text/html 2013-04-09T05:51:30+00:00 brett http://www.dbzoo.com/blog/enabling_oracle_sql_advisor?rev=1365486690&do=diff This error message from Oracle SQL Developer was bugging the crap out of me DECLARE * ERROR at line 1: ORA-13717: Tuning Package License is needed for using this feature.
