Post Drayton Digistat
Hi,

Has anyone tried using Indigo to intercept a Drayton Digistat wireless thermostat / boiler controller? I imagine it would need some extra hardware (the RFXcom USB stick perhaps?) Sorry if this is a stupid question... quite new to all this.

Post Re: Drayton Digistat
Alas no way i've ever been able to find. I have a RFXtrx433 and a old Digistat+ system, but i've never found a way of making them interoperate. I eventually gave up, got a LightWaveRF relay switch to activate the boiler and a Oregon Scientific THGN122N to monitor the temperature, then setup a control page in Indigo to set the desired temperature in the room... surprisingly works a treat, i'm now planning to get more sensors and lightwave's radiator thermostats (which won't work with a RFXtrx433, but i also have one of lightwave's wifi base stations) so i can have a fully room independent heating system.. which is far better than what the old Drayton could do!
