Cisco 7970 + Asterisk + HS + Visu

from sdkdoc-0.0.4.pdf, page 162:

Yes, I did RTFM, but didn't get it.

Guess thats not what's you're after:

Good guess, Sir

not possible

HS is an EIBlib/IP (aka iETS) Server, eibd is and needs either a KNXnet/IP Routing or Tunneling Server.

OK, now that you say it ... I remember to have read it many times here.

you can do the other way around, use eibd as KNXnet/IP Routing Server for the HS

Looks nice, although I don't fully understand all the implications.
It's still about the Visu on the Cisco phones.... so, I'll try it

This is due to the design of the interface and probably the reason why HS etc. only supports FT1.2.

OK, that's why I though using the HS as gateway was a goog idea, so using the FT 1.2 instead of the BCU1 I'm using right now.


Thank very much for sharing your experience, much appreciated

use eibd as KNXnet/IP Routing Server for the HS

for this you start "eibd -i -R <backend>" (or enable all with "eibd -S -D -i -T -c -d -u <backend>"

Supposing: 10.0.1.249 is the HS and 10.0.0.23 is the eibd server,
what would be the command to start eibd and to issue a groupswrite ?

A concrete example would help me a lot

Thank you in advance

So, you are brave Disclaimer again, mainly for the archives:
[Wichtig]don't try this at home unless you know what you're doing[/Wichtig]
it is neither very supported nor (at least with my current knowledge) very recommended!
I'd suggest to get a TP-UART BTM as I just described and use this to get eibd onto the bus and leave your HS operational with the FT1.2.

Otherwise, having that said:
- make sure multicast gets through your switch(es) & routers (I know you have Cisco, I haven't got it to work until I disabled all the fancy stuff with "no igmp snopping"

- you start eibd with "eibd -R -S -D -i -T -d -u -c ft12:/dev/ttyS0"
(enables anything)
- configure your HS "Projekt->EIB" for EIBnet/IP Routing, Telegramme begrenzen: 6 (maybe more work, 20 i.e. no limit doesn't - more scan errors)

Thats all, I still got scan errors but haven't looked on this further. HS uses my FT1.2 now again, eibd TP-UART.
Means: don't do it I haven't digged further on this, somewhere, at least with the startup-scan of the HS there's a problem. Although i.e. using ETS to program over eibd works fine.

Hi,

I've just managed to switch on a lamp with a Cisco phone.
Still much to do ...

I've just managed to switch on a lamp with a Cisco phone.

Anyone wants to test it ?
If yes, please send PN.

Hi,

Digging up an old topic.

An example of what can be done with a Cisco IPPhone (usefull for the crowd of Cisco IPPhone owners )
The telephone part has been done via a flat file (extract from a db to CSV, but no SQL stuff).
The Meteo part has been done via a RSS feed.
The KNX part has been done with the help of eibd, re-using the same icones and structure as in the HS Visu.

Special thanks to Makki, Jef2000 and MKoegler for their kind help and patience with a newbee.

Hello Raimond,

An example of what can be done with a Cisco IPPhone (usefull for the crowd of Cisco IPPhone owners )

Uuhhh!
How can it be, that I've not recognized this thread up to now, when I'm on vacation.

I started working on this topic quite a year ago, but I'm using a Cisco CallManager Express with about six 797x and some more 7961 and 7911 at home and for some testing purposes the big one (CallManager), too.

For some reasons I've stopped working in this topic, because some other projects had to be done. But I never got such steps, which you did. Your display shots are very nice and are on the way I like.

One more difference to my infrastructure is, that I do not want to use "eidb". I like to use my FacilityServer only.

Maybe we could exchange some informations via eMail or PM, when I'm back in Germany in the first week of may.

I know almost nothing about those CallManager. I've concentrated my learning effort on the 7970 with the SIP image, as those phones are used in an Asterisk network. Usually, the CallManager client have an SCCP image.... so it might not fit ...
Also, the major effort was to harness the phone programming stuff, but I may not complain, as I've been seriously warned in the early steps.
Never give up, persist !

But I never got such steps, which you did.

Oh well, I couldn't have done it alone, but ... with a little help of my friends and with my aptidude to bother people up to a point of no return

&#251;&#251;&#251;h ?!? and how are you going to achieve this ? You need some kind of API or KNX primitives to lauch your KNX request against.
I surely would love to do it that way, but didn't find any way.
I'm curious.

Maybe we could exchange some informations via eMail

You're welcome.
So you are among the 2,5 people on planet earth, interested in a KNX Visu on a Cisco phone ?

PS: just added a last item on the phone menu: a news feed based on a RSS news feed.
