MyOpen BTICINO PROTOCOL FOR MYHOME SYSTEM

MyOpen / OpenWebNet • MyOpen system – Initially proposed by Bticino (Legrand group) – Proprietary bus (SCS) – Proprietary low-level protocol – Simple configuration • Jumpers (can be carried by electricians) • Software – Accessible via OpenWebNet gateways 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 4

OpenWebNet • Allows external applications to communicate, monitor and control MyHome devices • Open Specification • Open protocol designed to work on minimal network requirements – E.g., phone connections 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 5

OpenWebNet • DTMF compatible – E.g., *1*1*12##  Light 12, On • Defines 2 types of communication sessions – Command session • To send commands • To ask for device states • To require measure values – Event session • To monitor all the bus events, asynchronously 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 6

OpenWebNet - Messages • Tag structure – *tag1*tag2*tag3*...*tagN## • Tag – Allowed characters • {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, #} – Delimitator • * – Message end • ## • Content and structure changes for – Commands / State requests – Requests of measure values 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 7

OpenWebNet – Commands/States WHO Functionality Description • 3-tag structure 0 Scenarios – *WHO*WHAT*WHERE## • 1 Lighting WHO 2 Actuators – The command/request functionality (among a set of pre-defined values) 3 Load control • WHAT 4 Temperature control – The action to perform 5 Anti-burglar systems – Possible actions are specified for each 6 Intercom WHO value 7 Multimedia • WHERE 13 Gateway management – Identifies the message destination 15 CEN commands • Single device, device groups, scenarios, zones, etc. 16 / 22 Sound diffusion • WHAT and WHERE can have 17 Scenarios for MH200N gateways additional parameters 18 Energy management – WHAT#PAR1#PAR2...#PARn 25 CEN plus/ plus scenarios/ clean contacts – WHERE#PAR1#PAR2...#PARn 1001 Automation diagnostics 1004 Thermal control diagnostics 1013 Device diagnostics 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 8

OpenWebNet – Commands/States • Switch on the lamp with id=12 – *1*1*12## • Switch on the webcam with id=4000 – *7*0*4000## • Switch off the temperature control for the zone 1 – *4*303*1## • Switch off all lights – *1*0*0## 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 9

Idiosyncrasies / Peculiarities • Explicit State Notion • Same format for State changes and Commands • State change events only in monitoring sessions • State change events only for “active devices”, buttons and switches do not generate events. • States and commands only “defined” for “active” devices – Buttons and switches do not have an explicit state (independent from the controlled object) 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 10

KNX THE EUROPEAN DE-FACTO STANDARD (ALMOST) KNX is a standardized (EN 50090, ISO/IEC 14543), OSI-based network communications protocol for intelligent buildings. KNX is the successor to, and convergence of, three previous standards: the European Home Systems Protocol (EHS), BâtiBUS, and the European Installation Bus (EIB or Instabus). The KNX standard is administered by the KNX Association..

KNX • Formal merger of 3 leading systems for Home and Building Automation – EIB – EHS – BatiBus 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 13

KNX • All devices carry a “bit” of intelligence on -board • 2 Operating modes – S-MODE (System Mode) • Requires centralized binding & parameterization (with ETS) – E-MODE • Simple manipulation without PCs • Similar to MyOpen 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 14

Basic Principles • Based on the idea of distributed applications • Every device carries a BIT of «intelligence» on board • 2 Main operating modes • Requires centralized binding & S-MODE parameterization (with ETS (System Mode) software) • Simple manipulation without E-MODE PCs • Similar to MyOpen 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 15

Logic Architecture S-MODE E-MODE CONFIGURATION APPLICATION LINK 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 16

Application • Device implement “Distributed Applications” – Based on Datapoints • Distributed Applications = Datapoint Binding • Datapoints: – Represent process and control variables in the system – May be inputs, outputs, parameters, diagnostic data,… – Standardized Datapoint types – Grouped into Functional Blocks 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 17

KNX – Application (2) • Communication System and Protocol offer a reduced instruction set to – Read and Write (set and get) Datapoint values • Application semantics is mapped to – Data format – Bindings • 3 binding schemes – Free – Structured – Tagged binding 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 18

Application = Datapoints Binding GroupAddress (multicast access to a datapoint) Binding GroupAddress (multicast access to a datapoint) 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 23

KNX - Binding • Free binding: – No a priori prescription on which Datapoints may be linked – Free addressing – Customized multicast grouping at the level of individual Datapoints – Central to S-Mode • Structured binding – Precise pattern for linking a whole set of Datapoints, usually corresponding to a Functional Block or Channel – Free-address • E.g., Controller and Push-button Modes • Tagged binding – … too complex … 2013/2014 Ambient intelligence: technology and design 24
