@wiesemann-theis/node-red-contrib-wut

Integrate Wiesemann & Theis products - like Com-Servers, Web-IOs or Web-Thermometers - into Node-RED.

The package currently provides the following nodes:

Com-Server (handle both incoming and outgoing serial communication through Com-Servers)
Digital IN (display input values of Digital Web-IOs)
Digital OUT (display and possibly set output values of Digital Web-IOs)
Counter (display and possibly set counter values of Digital Web-IOs)
Analog IN (display input values of Analog Web-IOs or Web-Thermometers)
Analog OUT (display and possibly set output values of Analog Web-IOs)

Installation

The easiest way to install the WuT nodes is to use the Node-RED editor's Menu -> Manage palette option. In the Install tab you can search for the @wiesemann-theis/node-red-contrib-wut package and click install. Once the installation is complete the nodes will be available straight away (no Node-RED restart required).

Alternatively, you can run the following command in your Node-RED user directory (typically ~/.node-red):

npm i @wiesemann-theis/node-red-contrib-wut

The WuT nodes will then be available after you have restarted your Node-RED instance.

Usage

For detailed information about the nodes and their configuration please look at the nodes' help texts at the Node-RED editor.

Please note that Web-IOs and Web-Thermometers don't allow http access by default. To access these devices through Node-RED, please ensure that the "allow http requests" option in the "communication paths -> web API" section of the web configuration is enabled.

To visualize your data, you might for example use the nodes provided by the node-red-dashboard project.
