MySensors OLED wall thermostat
The MySensors OLED Wall Thermostat project, developed by Damsma, is an open-source project that aims to create a customizable and efficient wall thermostat using MySensors technology. This thermostat integrates an OLED display, various sensors, and buttons to provide a user-friendly interface for controlling home heating systems.
Key Components:
- OLED Display: Utilized for showing temperature, humidity, and other relevant information. It connects via SPI/I2C interfaces.
- SHT-30 and DS18B20 Sensors: These sensors are used to measure temperature and humidity, ensuring accurate readings for climate control.
- W5500 Ethernet Module: This module is crucial for network connectivity, allowing the thermostat to communicate with other home automation systems over a wired Ethernet connection.
- Buttons: Used for user input to adjust settings and navigate the thermostat's interface.
W5500 Module Usage:
The W5500 Ethernet module provides a reliable and straightforward way to connect the thermostat to a home network. It handles the Ethernet connectivity, enabling the thermostat to send and receive data from a home automation controller such as Domoticz or Home Assistant. The connections for the W5500 are as follows:
- V+5 -> 5V
- GND -> GND
- NSS -> D10
- MO -> D51
- SOK -> D52
- MI -> D50
This setup ensures that the thermostat can effectively communicate with the home automation system, allowing for remote monitoring and control of the home’s climate settings.
Additional Information:
The thermostat is designed to fit seamlessly into a home automation ecosystem, providing precise control over the heating system. The project includes detailed wiring diagrams and a parts list, making it accessible for DIY enthusiasts looking to build their own smart thermostat.
