This ioBroker Adapter is based on work by Daniel Wippermann.

There are two types of VBus hardware adapters:
- TCP based: DL2, DL3, KM2, VBus/LAN
- Serial port based: VBus/USB, USB port of DeltaSol SLT and other controllers
This ioBroker adapter connects to one or more serial port based hardware adapters and exposes them over TCP. This allows:
- transmitting VBus data over longer distances than USB or serial ports would normally permit
- accessing serial port based adapters from applications that only support TCP based ones
Configurable items are:
-
The TCP port on which the service is listening for incoming connections.
Default is port: 7053, which should not be changed. -
The http port on which the service is listening for discovery requests.
Default is port: 80, alternatively port 3000 can be selected. -
The password of the VBus gateway.
Allows access to all serial port connected VBus devices. Default is "vbus". -
A list of serial ports to connect to with the following parameters for each serial port:
-
channel: The vbus channel to which the serial port is assigned.
If you only want to connect to a single serial port it is recommended to configure that to use channel 0, since most applications will by default try and connect that channel 0. -
path: The path to the serial port like '/dev/tty.usbmodem141301' or 'COM5'
-
baudrate: The baudrate of the serial port. Default is 9600, which normally does not need to be changed.
- This adapter currently supports up to 3 VBus devices connected via serial ports.
- The passwords for all VBus'es connected to the serial ports are the same.
- VBus.net connected devices are not emulated. Sending the CONNECT (via tag) command returns +OK although no connection is established.
- Sending the DATA command with a non-existing channel selected returns +OK, but immediately closes the connection afterwards.
