RC Plugs - Home Automation

RC Plugs allows you to remote-control all electronic outlets communicating on 433MHz and turns your smartphone or tablet into a universal remote control!

This system is COMPLETELY FREE and WITHOUT ANY ANNOYING ADS.

Note: By default, the app connects to a demo server so you can have a look at the system. However if you want to use it, you will have to install your own RC Plugs Server.

Visit https://rcplugs.info for detailed installation instructions.

Functions:

• Switch single outlets on/off. Up to 160 different outlets can be stored and controlled

• Control groups of outlets

• Add scripts that get executed on the server when groups get triggered (e.g. triggering music)

• Set repeating timers to switch outlets/groups automatically at a specific time and weekday

• Switching on geofences allows you to trigger specific groups e.g. let the lights go on when you come home and go out when you go leave

• The server provides a web-interface to control RC Plugs, update your system, do user management and take a look at logfiles from your browser. So you can access RC Plugs with your iOS devices too!

• RC Plugs can be configured for global access via internet (you'll need a dynamic DNS and port forwarding on your router)

• The app can scan its local (sub)network for available servers to automatically configure itself

Required hardware:

• A Raspberry Pi + SD-Card and power supply (about 50$)

• A 433MHz-Transmitter (about 3$)

• 443MHz electronic outlets with manual dipcode-switches (about 5$ each)

RC Plugs was originally developed as a bachelor thesis at the University of Ulm in Germany.

RC插头允许您远程控制在433MHz通信的所有电子插座，并将您的智能手机或平板电脑变成通用遥控器！

该系统完全免费和没有任何恼人的广告。

注意：默认情况下，应用程序连接到演示服务器，以便您可以查看系统。但是，如果要使用它，则必须安装自己的RC插头服务器。

有关详细的安装说明，请访问 https://rcplugs.info 。

功能：

•打开/关闭单个插座。最多可存储和控制160个不同的插座

•控制出口组

•添加在触发组时在服务器上执行的脚本（例如，触发音乐）

•设置重复计时器以在特定时间和工作日自动切换插座/组

•启用地理围栏可让您触发特定群组，例如当你回家时，让你的灯继续，当你离开时出去

•服务器提供Web界面来控制RC插件，更新系统，进行用户管理并查看浏览器中的日志文件。因此，您也可以使用iOS设备访问RC插头！

•RC插头可以配置为通过互联网进行全局访问（您需要在路由器上进行动态DNS和端口转发）

•应用程序可以扫描其本地（子）网络以获取可用服务器以自动配置自身

必需的硬件：

•Raspberry Pi + SD卡和电源（约50美元）

•433MHz发射器（约3美元）

•带手动拨码开关的443MHz电子插座（每个约5美元）

RC Plugs最初是在德国乌尔姆大学开发的学士论文。
