    Gentlemen, a client asked me if it is possible to control garage doors, gates and electric door locks in a newly built house via an app on an Android phone. He is talking about a simple BMS with the possibility of expanding it with an alarm system, e.g. Satel, and controlling a gas cooker. I recommended a few PLC systems with the possibility of expansion, e.g. Fibaro, Nexwell and Wago 400... However, I am wondering if he will need such controllers... Can you do it yourself?

    Satel - additional ports when programming the panel. For a large number - expander. ( Port Expander). This is how I remember.

    Alone is difficult but cheap. It's easy but expensive. There's a hell of a lot of crap to control. Sorry I didn't actually help. Possibly delete the post.

    And possibly don't post if you don't have much to say on the subject ;) If you could please.

    You can, after all, everything a colleague writes about was eventually invented by people ;) .
    The question is, in the end, do you want to put the customer an alarm system with the possibility of these simple controls or just a simple W-fi, GSM controller alone ? any budget?

    Excuse me - just now you didn't know how to plug the cable into the headphone socket
    https://www.elektroda.pl/rtvforum/topic3546350.html
    and you're taking on customer installations???



    It was not about connecting a cable to the headphone socket...I was more interested in the possibility of connecting a set of 5.1 speakers at low cost, and if not, then 2.1 e.g. via suitable converters....Do not tear the post out of the whole.

    Fellow Suworow.The guy would like to control the furnace and the entrance gate and garageà via a tel and a suitable App...The guy is able to spend 3 thousand max for such a game..However, he would probably like to do it cheaper....

    The cheapest is probably sonoff:

    Other ideas:
    https://www.elektroda.pl/rtvforum/topic3472616.html

    Basic questions to answer before you get started:
    1. is it just about turning the cooker on and off
    2. do we want to control or see the status of the appliance receive feedback from it.
    3. security.

    What about the Somfy Animeo control unit?
    In addition to switching the cooker on and off, the user would probably also like to see the temperature status, i.e. gather information from the temperature sensors.

    I've read a bit about this Ropam, but I'm curious whether the NeoGSM-IP-PS control panel can be operated via an Adnroid app of some kind.

    Sonoff is also interesting however my question is whether their 4 relay main modules can be combined together to increase their functionality.?

    How does this Ropam perform? Does the control panel not hang when several outputs are controlled simultaneously?

    Do you need a bus connection for this control unit? I am asking because I see that modules for controlling electrical sockets are available.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the feasibility of controlling garage doors, gates, and electric door locks via an Android app in a newly built house. The user seeks advice on integrating a basic Building Management System (BMS) with potential expansions for alarm systems like Satel and gas cooker control. Various solutions are proposed, including PLC systems such as Fibaro, Nexwell, and Wago 400. Participants suggest considering cost-effective options like Sonoff for basic control, while also discussing the Ropam control unit and its compatibility with Android apps. Key considerations include the ability to monitor appliance status and security features.
