This site is dedicated to the VSCP protocol, a very simple and free protocol for automation tasks. The protocol is so easy that everyone can grasp the idea behind it in a few minutes but still complex enough to handle serious tasks. It is very easy to construct and use VSCP aware modules and components. A lot of examples is availabe on this site that will get you started fast. When your'e done coding nodes just start up and then serve the control solution reliable and stable for ever and ever and ever.....

VSCP really consist of three parts. VSCP - The Very Simple Control Protocol and related specification, software and firmware. OHAS - Open Home Automation Server whcih is web related tools for home automation on top of VSCP. CANAL - CAN abstraction layer the low level driver interface used by VSCP.

The VSCP protocol is free to use and implement just as all code and examples. It is not designed to conquer the world and every home, it is constructed just because its fun to make tiny little things work together.

Please consider supporting the project. It has now been activly developed for more then ten years. It is impossible to count all the hours put into this project. Please go to our support page.

Our latest release VSCP & Friends 0.3.1 Nitrogen is out.

• bug 3235535 fixed. Minimized session windows on start up in vscpworks.
• bug 2870025 fixed. Reedit of txlines in vscpworks.
• Added DM action escape substitutions for differenet standard system paths. See 15.7.6 for complete list.
• Helper interface now have full variable handling.
• All Level I drivers moved to drivers/level1. Windows build files changed accordingly.
• Timestamp was missing on internal events. Added for all.
• Fixed bug in %hour substitution in DM action strings.

Our latest release VSCP & Friends 0.3.0 Carbon is out.

• A new TCP/IP based VSCP Driver model in place. A very good diagnostic tool with many features.
• A Level II logger driver in place.
• A Level II bluetooth proximity driver in place. Detect bluetooth devices coming in and going out of a zone.
• A Level II raw ethernet driver in place. Very low cost ethernet devices can be used that does not need a TCP/IP stack. The nodes can be fully plug and play and use PoE. Just insert a tempdevice into an ethernet socket and it will work right away without any configuration.
• The internal decision matrix of the daemon is now fully functional. Complex control scenarios can be set up.

Our latest release VSCP 0.2.10 Boron is out.

This i VSCP Boron 0.2.10. Many changes and bugfixes has been added to this release. The most exciting is that the internal decision matrix of the daemon is now fully functional. This means that the VSCP daemon/server now can be use as a fully fledged sceduler on it's on. It is possible to control when things happen down to the smallest detail. If you want a a light to be on only X-mas day between 9:30 and 10:30 that is OK. If it's just a special year this should happen that is OK to. If you want a random patterns thats easy.

Actions are the workers of the decision matrix. External events such as buttons pressed and internal events such as second, minute, hour events are feed into the matrix. If the conditions for the row is fulfilled the action is performed. Actions can send new events execute exteral scripts/programs, access web servers (GET/POST), send events to remote VSCP daemons, write to file, and much more.

The decion matrix can be controled remotly through the TCP/IP interface to add/remove/edit rows.

Variable handling are fully functional. Write measurements to a variable and read it from a web server scripts.

Enyoy!

It took some time to get a new web site up an running for VSCP. Now it's finally here. There will probably be some initial problems. Please report problems to info@vscp.org

Our latest release VSCP 0.2.9 Beryllium is out. Among many things it includes support for bootloading nodes locally or remotly over the Internet.
