 Release Notes

Release Notes NetHomeServer 0.9

CUL Support

Added support for the CUL stick with the CULTransceiver-item. The CUL stick is a small USB-device with a programmable radio transmitter and receiver which can be used to control any lamp switch using the 433.92MHz-band. This includes for example Nexa and X10. The CUL stick can be bought at www.busware.de and works on both Windows, Linux and MAC OSX.

The CUL stick can also be used for sending IR-signals via the PowerMid IR extender. PowerMid is intended for extending the range of ordinary IR remote controls via a radio link. the NetHome CUL-drivers can tap in on that protocol, and use the PowerMid for transmitting any IR signals specified as Pronto Codes.

The NetHome CUL driver currently only supports sending, I have not been able to get good enough quality on the reception.

Support for MAC OSX

NetHome now officially supports MAC OSX. Some minor fixes and a specific start script was all that was needed.

Added items UPMRainFall, UPMWindDirection and UPMWindSpeed

These Items presents data from the UPM weather station, and uses the same reception hardware as the UPM-thermometers. These Items were contributed by Fredric Moestedt - Thanks Fredric
