DSGW-210 gateway hub has served as a a Grow Light Controller at a plant factory. With Home Assistant as the brain of gateway hub, the factory system was able to finish communication with BLE mesh lighting (DSM-055 BLE modules flashed), and issued commands such as light on/off to optimize plant development. The process also involved a custom (BLE mesh) add-on development.
Home energy management is made easy with DSGW-210 Home Assistant Zigbee gateway. This versatile hub facilitates home energy monitoring by collecting data from Zigbee 3.0 devices and uploading data to the cloud via Wi-Fi, with 4G LTE as a reliable network backup. Users can effortlessly gain valuable insights into their energy consumption, enabling informed decision-makng and reduction of wasteful spending.
The Home Assistant comes pre-installed in the gateway, and all of its functions have been successfully migrated.
Sometimes, the default version of supervisor and Core on the HA gateway is not the most recent; however, users need to be reassured because they will be updated automatically after some time has passed.
The gateway supports Wi-Fi Access Point mode. You can connect a few Wi-Fi devices that use a relatively low amount of data to the gateway, and the Dusun Wi-Fi add-on can be used to configure the wireless network’s SSID.
In September, Home Assistant officially made its Bluetooth functionality available to the public. Dusun IoT’s Home Assistant Bluetooth gateway can receive the most recent supervisor software update, and support the Bluetooth function. Check its BLE module Quick Start kit here
There is no requirement for an additional dongle because the Dusun IoT’s Home Assistant ZigBee gateway already incorporates Zigbee modules. It is able to be perfectly adapted to a variety of Zigbee add-ons that are utilized frequently, such as zigbee2mqtt.
The Dusun Home Assistant gateway is able to provide reliable support for the connection of up to 40 Zigbee devices, which enables it to completely satisfy the requirements of smart terminals in typical residential settings.
Expanding the storage capacity with an SD card or selecting a larger Emmc gateway product are viable options for resolving this issue.
It is strongly suggested that you take advantage of the ZHA (Zigbee home automation) integration that is included in Home Assistant. Please ensure that the Zigbee module is updated to its most recent version before switching to the zigbee2MQTT add-on.
Once your order reaches the minimum order quantity (MOQ), you can send the specific requirements of the packages that need to be installed in the gateway. Then, in order to assist you in bringing the products to market, we would provide you with a specialized firmware image version.
