VAN PI Compatibility
VAN PI Supported Systems and Devices
Consumer General
- You can switch all consumers up to a current of 10A on and off. The relay board has eight relays that can be integrated into the system as switches.
Typical consumers:
- Refrigerator
- Auxiliary heating
- Headlights
- Pump
The relays are galvanically isolated from the system. This means that 230V devices can also be switched directly.
Heating
Various heaters are supported.
The simplest way to control a heater is to connect the heater's switching contact to a relay.
Heating systems that can already be integrated via protocol.
- Autoterm 2D&4D (via USB - Plug and Play)
- Webasto (Wbus <3.5 via USB - settings in the web interface required)
- Truma via MQTT (inetbox2mqtt)
- "Chinese Diesel Heater" via Arduino adapter
Switch
- 6x switch inputs via soldering points on the relay board.
- Zigbee switch via Zigbee adapter
(See tutorial)
- Wifi switch via http or MQTT API
LED
- LEDs switch relay
- Dim LEDs via DIMMY
Temperature sensors
Digital temperature sensors are supported.
- 4x DS18B20 on the relay board
- 2x DS18B20 on Dimmy
Battery monitoring
- VAN PI Shunt
- Victron shunt via VE.direkt
- Bluetooth batteries with JBD BMS (e.g. Liontron, Powerkönig, PowerQeen, Redodo)
- Wired BMS (Daly, JBD)
- VAN PI WIFI SHUNT *SOON
Water tank sensors
- Resistance sensors
- Capacitive sensors (Votronic FL
Votronics 15-50K, 12-24K)
Display
- Pekaway touch display
- Smartphones, laptops and tablets via web interface
- Custom Sonoff NS Panel (Tutorial)
other devices
- Maxxfan (Arduino IR, RJ45)
- GOK Senso4s gas scale via Bluetooth
