Details
ZBPLM enables the controller of your choosing to set up, monitor and control a home automation network of ZigBee, Insteon, and X10 devices. You can manage home control elements like lighting, irrigation, smart thermostats, sensors and more with either the iSmartenit app or an app of your own creation. It gives you the ability to track energy consumption at appliance and whole house levels, see the status of devices, set up schedules and programs, and trigger devices based on other events or devices all from a phone, tablet, or web browser. In addition, you can write your own custom home automation application using ZBPLM’s open API. Multiple protocol control means an impressive and expandable list of devices and functions for your home control system. Whether you are an expert developer or a fan of plug and play home technology, ZBPLM offers a powerful solution to your home control needs.
The device communicates with your controller via a serial RS-232 line and a simple, yet effective serial command/response protocol. While it does not ship with a software package, you can add our ZBPServer middleware to your controller of choice. This allows you to interface with ZBPLM using our free iSmartenit app on your web browser or an Android/ iOS phone or tablet. You can see examples of this set up below. If you wish to write a custom application for your system, you can find the API document in the Resources section.
