FabAcess Step By Step

This document provides a step by step Instruction on how to get FabAcess running. At the end of this description you will have:

• 2 Users registered to your system
• 2 Shellies registered to you system
• 1 Shelly configured as a door-opener
• 1 Shelly configured to identify if a machine is just switched on or realy running
• 2 QR-Codes generate to acess a machine

Step 1 Installing the BFFH-Server

there are multiple ways to install the BFFH server. This can bei either done via

• docker - see docker installation document
• installing from source - see installing from source documentation
• installing on Ubuntu for dummies

Step 2 Installing the FabAccess App

get the App via Apple Store or Google Apps.

Step 3 Connect the App and the Server

First you need to find the IP of the server. This can be done by typing ip a on the console of the system where the BFFH-Server is running. Use the adress listed under BROADCAST.

Start the server. If you are using the docker, this is done by using docker-compose up -d. If you compiled the server on your system this is done by entering ./diflouroborane -c examples/bffh.dhall --load examples and then ./diflouroborane -c examples/bffh.dhall. You will see some debug information, with probably some warnings.

Open the App. You will be asked to connect to a Host. Tap "DEMO HOST ADRESS" and change the IP to the IP of your Server, do not change the port number (everything after the IP. This should look like 192.168.1.15:59661). Tap "SELECT HOST".

You will be asked to sign in. For Version 0.2 only the Option "LOGIN WITH PASSWORD" ist available. Use Testuser and the passwort secret to log in.

You will find an overview of the installed machines including the option "SCAN QR-CODE". Next step is setting up you machines so they can be switched on an off.

Step 4 Prepare your Shellies

as long as your Shelly has not been given the credentials for a WLAN, it will create an access point (AP) for configuration when connected to the supply voltage. This AP will appear in your list of WLAN. Connect to this Shelly-AP and connect to 192.168.33.1 in your browser. A configuration page should appear. If your Shelly is already connected to your WLAN, you must find the assigned IP-Adress (e.g. by looking into your router). Enter this IP Adress in your browser and you will get the configuration page.

Shelly MQTT Client setup

goto "Internet & Security" -> "Advanced - Developer Settings" enable "MQTT" enter the IP-Adress from your Server in the field "IP-Adress" As we did not define MQTT credentials in mosquitto yet, no creadentials need to be filled in. To find the "ID" of your Shelly activate "Use custom MQTT prefix" (but do not change it!). This should be somthing like: shelly1-123456789ABC for a Shelly 1 shelly1pm-123456 for a Shelly 1PM note this ID for later - save - re-check the settings!

Shelly WLAN Client setup goto "Internet & Security" -> "WIFI MODE - CLIENT" Set WLAN Credentials

20. Configure Diflouroborane Open the file "bffh.dhall" in the GUI Editor (just by double-clicking it) Change Shelly_123 to your Shelly name, e.g. shelly1-123456789ABC (case sensitive!, dash sensitive!) in "Link up machines to actors" and in "actors". Change the third IP-adress under "listens" to the IP-adress of your computer. - save

21. start Diflouroburane change to the directory in the console where you checked for the ip-address cd BFFH/bffh/target/release load settings to Diflouroborane: ./diflouroborane -c examples/bffh.dhall --load examples start Diflouroborane: ./diflouroborane -c examples/bffh.dhall

Important every time you change the bffh.dhal you need to reload the settings (otherwise the App will not connect to the server on restart): ./diflouroborane -c examples/bffh.dhall --load examples and restart start Diflouroborane: ./diflouroborane -c examples/bffh.dhall
