    Good day everyone! Does anybody have practise of geting the value of outside temperature from internet to c-bus? I'll explain, in logic I should write the condition, in wich outside temperature would be compared to some constant value, but in current system there is no sensor of outside temperature and no possibility to include new one in this system. How can I get the value of outside temperature from internet? (there is Wiser in the system)

    With the Wiser you should be able to write some script that will scrape temperature data off a webpage then you should be able to store that as a variable. Sorry I don't have any examples of this but I do recall someone mentioning doing something similar on the forum a while ago.

    It really depends upon both the reliability of what data is availability and in what format. I can scrape the temperature from the local weather bureau site but it is not updated regularly enough for me.

    If you can paste a link to the web page from where you intend to get the temperature, I'm sure we can help you
