Energenie seem to supply datasheets for their products and those should reveal which pins are used and which remain available. Energenie tech support may be able to tell you if the dastasheets do not. You can connect other ...
... not wanting to corrupt the Pi's SD card, as I'm sure you can appreciate. My thinking is this: 1. Power both the 3D printer and the Pi from an Energenie plug (or 4-way strip). 2. Have a GPIO button on the Raspberry Pi. 3. When pressed, the button tells the Pi to shut itself down cleanly. 4. ...
... You should not be considering interfering with mains powered appliances at all. Stick to using properly designed and manufactured tools like the Energenie remote controlled switches already mentioned.
... supply? Perhaps you are asking about using the RPi to control a mains-powered device? If so, you could do so safely by using something like these Energenie products: https://energenie4u.co.uk/catalogue/category/Raspberry-Pi-Accessories Do Not connect any part of an RPi board to any mains-powered ...
Good day everyone, I have a RaspPi3 with an Energenie IR board (ENER314-IR) and I have been able to capture signals from the remote, using LIRC, for my Hitachi aircon control (RAR-3U2) and save them to a file (snippet below): ------------------------------------------ ...
EnerGenie have (or had) the Pi Mote unit that would connect the Pi to power sockets safely. This article https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/controlling-electrical-sockets-with-energenie-pi-mote/ shows the unit and basic code. ...
... correct. I have swapped out the transmitter for a LED to prove the GPIO pin selected in pi4j is good. [NB I have a Java / pi4j interface for the Energenie sockets working properly but just wanted to reuse my Status one] I don't have a receiver set up so far to actually see what my transmitter ...
... useful for the meeting rooms where I work, if I can get such a solution to work. I have already bought an IR emitter: https://cpc.farnell.com/energenie/ener314-ir/i-r-controller-board-for-raspberry/dp/SC13692?CMP=TREML007-005 And a PIR sensor: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Infrared-PIR-Motion-Sensor-Module-3-x-GPIO-cables-for-Raspberry-Pi-2-Model-B/263202444167?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160908105057%26meid%3D9aab883f98fd41a7a23208b50139ee12%26pid%3D100675%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D15%26sd%3D263202444167%26itm%3D263202444167&_trksid=p2481888.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci%3Acdf48e38-f55d-11e8-b406-74dbd18054f0%7Cparentrq%3A699143f11670aa41270c216efffca09a%7Ciid%3A1 ...

Edit: wait found these now: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Energenie-ENER002-2PI-EUR-Pi-Mote-European-Starter/dp/B012CDAJWG/ref=sr_1_1 Shame they use radio though... not very reliable. Also really really wish ...

Next door runs a Energenie MiHome system but that requires a hub+account and the TRVs are like £80 each. I dont want a hub+account because of security, future proofing,, ...
... needed. (I've used the RFM12, which also has an SPI interface, and there's a lot more you can set up there. If you end up with an RFM12, the Energenie control board for the Pi uses one - costs about £20. A popular module with a number of software examples).
... requirements (MQTT handling is a good filter!) For things like the radiator valves, I suggest you look at what systems are available - people like Energenie are relatively low cost, and sometimes publish the protocols for you to add code. If you're minded to dabble, look for the OpenHR20 project; ...
... power from the Pi as you noted and the energinie board needs pins 11,13,15 and 16 going by https://www.raspberrypi-spy.co.uk/2017/08/controlling-energenie-power-sockets-with-the-pi-mote-addon/ so you should not clash.

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post, but I wasn't sure which area of the forum to post it in. I saw the Energenie PiMote and having already got 4 sockets in the house for controlling lights I thought I could make a nice touchscreen controller with a Raspberry Pi computer. ...
AFAIK Energenie does not use SPI. The SPI pins are covered, but not in use. You could use a shim like https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/pico-hat-hacker or https://cpc.farnell.com/piface/shim/i-o-shim-for-raspberry-pi/dp/SC13561?st=shim ...
Hi All I'm not sure where to post this query. I want to use a Energenie hat and I need to move the SPI pins that I need for a SSD1331 Oled display to different pins. I am not able to figure out how to do this using the Luma.OLED library. The display works ...
... a means of communicating the data back to a central device. A Pi is well suited to be this central device. For a quick start, have a look at the Energenie range. They do various devices using radio communication. I believe Sonoff do some useful peripherals. Look at https://openenergymonitor.org/ ...
Look at the Energenie smart sockets; they have two ranges, and the more costly range gives you feedback not only of switch status, but also mains voltage, current draw etc. There's an interface board which plugs onto the Pi, and ...
WOL was invented in 1996, see the wikipedia page. In this century and even this decade the EU has required that household products should conform to stringent energy efficiency standards.

The RC15 GPIO module (v1.00) is very different from earlier versions and won't run with code (or libraries) written for the earlier GPIO modules. It took me a while to get my old code to work on RC15 but I got there in the end. The RC15 GPIO StrongHelp file doesn't make clear what needs to be done i...
Yes. I am running RC15 and have the documentation for the gpio module v1.0 I am now beginning to think that I may have a duff board (or, less likely) two duff switches, as the pi-mote will also not work on Linux with well publicised Python software. I have ordered another pi-mote board from a differ...
