Project: detached house with garden

The result:
Light: When someone enters a room, LED orientation lights (1 watt) switch on if the lighting conditions require it. If additional light is needed, it can be switched on and dimmed using the push-button sensors or the visualisation. Lighting scenes can be called up (e.g. Christmas lighting).
Roller shutters: The roller shutters are controlled by the weather station and go up at sunrise. At the same time the lights in the rooms with roller shutters switch off. At sunset the roller shutters go down. The roller shutter at the terrace doors is not lowered if the door is open. In summer an automatic shading function is programmed, in which the roller shutters move to one of four shading levels depending on the position of the sun. If a smoke detector alarm is triggered, the roller shutters also go up.
Heating: The push-button sensors measure the room temperature (in larger rooms additional sensors are used and an average is calculated). The ventilation heating is activated with the appropriate heating element when required. The desired room temperature can be set at the push-button sensor or in the visualisation. Different operating modes can be selected directly or controlled automatically by a timer. In summer the ventilation is switched to cooling.
Alarm: The smoke detectors are networked. If one detector is triggered, all the others also sound a warning tone. In addition, an email and an SMS are sent to the user. After the burglar alarm has been activated at the Client 9 in the hallway, the HomeServer monitors all window and door contacts as well as the motion detectors. An alarm also sends an email and an SMS. If the user chooses, an audible alarm is also triggered.
Door communication: The video image is shown on the Client 9/19 screen. The doorbell sounds as a central call on the installed speakers.
Garden irrigation: The Gardena pop-up sprinklers are connected to solenoid valves, which are controlled directly by an EIB component. With the automatic mode switched on, the garden is watered according to the weather forecast and the soil moisture. Each sprinkler can also be addressed directly. In combination with a cistern, the fill level is measured and rainwater is used. The corresponding valve is controlled via the bus.
Pool: The water level of the pool is monitored and topped up automatically via a valve. The temperature is displayed, and with the heating switched on, the water is heated further. The circulation pumps are individually time-controlled. When the pool is not in use, it is covered and monitored (child safety).
Music: Using WHD actuators and Apple products, music can be played in all rooms through the installed speakers. The same music can also be played in all rooms at once.
Winter alarm clock: The winter alarm clock can be activated in the bedrooms. 15 minutes before the actual wake-up time, the room lighting is slowly brought up. 5 minutes before the wake-up time, the individually selectable radio station is switched on.
Miscellaneous: Computer time can be set for a child, and the computer is shut down when the daily limit is reached. The driveway and garage doors open, and if needed the driveway and garage lights switch on. All predefined loads are switched off when you leave. Panic buttons are distributed around the house.
Evaluations: Electricity and water consumption is measured and the corresponding costs are displayed. Temperature curves in the individual rooms are recorded in charts. Camera images are displayed (driveway, garden, pool). Entering and leaving the house is stored in the archive and displayed. The status of windows and doors is displayed.
