[OBSOLETE] Russound Multi-Zone Controller Integration

redloro · August 11, 2017, 4:38pm

Looks like you don’t have the serialport package installed. Did you run npm install:rnet?

You can also remove all the stuff from the config.json that you aren’t going to use, like the ad2usb, envisalink, etc

Thank you. I am only trying to install envisalink.

faceoff007 · August 11, 2017, 4:48pm

I have modified config.json to only include envisalink config:

                            {

                            },
                            {
                                    "zone": 4,

                            {

                            },
                            {
                                    "zone": 6,
                                    "type": "contact",

                            }

                    ]
            }
    },

            "address": "192.168.1.11",
            "port": "39500"

}

However I still get this error:

Are you trying to install the envisalink plugin or the rnet plugin?? Cause this is the Russound thread…

And delete all the plugins out of the /root/smartthings-nodeproxy/plugins/ folder except the one you want to use. That’ll fix it up for ya.

faceoff007 · August 11, 2017, 5:02pm

Thanks. That fixed it. Sorry about posting in wrong thread

Looks like it ended up building the dependencies… I see no other problem? What’s going on?

Hey @el_Argen… looks like you’re making progress. But it also looks like you don’t have your USB cable setup correctly. You can only use a port that is listed in Detected serial ports. Check the cable, drivers, etc and make sure that it is detected by the host machine, shows in the list and then set it in config.json.

Now how do I make for the zones to appear in smartthings?
Already configured the smart app

And how do I make sure the Russound CAA66 is actually receiving any data?

I just don’t know how to dissect the issue. I installed everything over this time on my mac, and I’m getting these outputs

but the zones are still not appearing

redloro · August 24, 2017, 12:11am

Good news - looks like you got STNP running on the RPi and Mac… couple questions:

Did you watch the install video in the first post?
Now that you’ve completed step #1 under Installation in the first post, make sure you follow the rest of the steps… verify that you have both the SmartApp and Device Handler installed.
If you’ve watched the video and done steps 1-6 in the first post, then something is not right and we’ve got to dig a bit further.

As a side note, after you completed the config in the SmartApp with “Discover Zones” enabled, did you refresh your list of Things? The zones will automatically show up once it’s configured right.

el_Argen · August 24, 2017, 12:50am

Yes, did all that. But I think the problem might be lack of connection with the russound.

redloro · August 24, 2017, 1:13am

Nope… that has nothing to do with it. You could unplug the Russound and still get STNP to work with ST… let’s dig a bit deeper… from the logs:

[2017-08-23T21:17:28.479Z] [stnp] SmartThings Node Proxy listening at http://:::8080
[2017-08-23T21:17:28.521Z] [stnp] Loaded plugin: rnet

[2017-08-23T21:17:30.027Z] [rnet] Connected to RNET: /dev/tty.usbserial-AL03KXME

Tells us that everything is setup and “working” with STNP.

Tells us that STNP received a subscribe command from the ST hub, and that the ST hub is at 192.168.100.4

[2017-08-23T21:17:50.122Z] [stnp] ::ffff:192.168.100.4 GET /plugins/rnet/discover

[2017-08-23T21:17:50.133Z] [rnet] Completed controller discovery

Tell us that STNP received a discover request for the RNET plugin and the RNET plugin responded with the 6 zones you configured in the config.json.

At this point the SmartApp should have created the 6 zones in ST. But upon further examination we see that the SmartApp is expecting the discover payload to include the controller number… and that’s because it supports multiple controllers… and the controller number is missing from the discover payload… and since this is pulled directly from the config.json I suspect that your config.json is not correct. The rnet section needs to look like this:

  "rnet": {
    "c-series": false,
    "serialPort": "/dev/tty.usbserial-AL03KXME",
    "sources": [
      "Sonos",
      "Airplay",
      "Apple TV",
      "Source 4",
      "Source 5",
      "Source 6"
    ],
    "controllerConfig": {
      "type": "discover",
      "controllers": [{
        "controller": 0,
        "zones": [
          {"zone": 0, "name": "Family Room"},
          {"zone": 1, "name": "Kitchen"},
          {"zone": 2, "name": "Living Room"},
          {"zone": 3, "name": "Patio"},
          {"zone": 4, "name": "Dining Room"},
          {"zone": 5, "name": "Office"}
        ]
      }]
    }
  },

Do this and report back…

Stop STNP
Fix your config.json
Start STNP
Re-run the SmartApp on your phone and save the settings with Discover Zones enabled
Zones should show up!

el_Argen · August 24, 2017, 3:38am

I take off my hat before you redloro. That made it work. And the Russound is now receiving commands!!
Just 3 more things I need to do to be all set up.
1: Assign a static IP to the RPi.
2: Find a way to automatically run the server upon restart.
3: is there any way to make a combination of zone/source to trigger that combo without using the ST app (like for using in ActionTiles or any other assigned keypad…)?

Any suggestions?

Thank you very, very much.

redloro · August 24, 2017, 5:17pm

Awesome…

You got that one
There are some posts in this thread and also this one: [RELEASE] Honeywell / Ademco Vista 20P Integration

KenJ · September 21, 2017, 6:49pm

@redloro I updated my iPhone last night to iOS 11, when I opened the Application the volume control was different, was that because of iOS or did you change it. BTW, I like the change. Thanks

redloro · September 21, 2017, 7:28pm

Oh wow… I hadn’t even noticed that… that change is compliments of the latest SmartThings app. Looks nice!
