I would like to know if anyone has been able to take control over 'Niko Home Control' with a PC or microcontroller (arduino)?
I Googled, but can't find much on this topic. Is it even possible? I guess it's not really open-source.
Things like:
- Control the lights
- Monitoring which lights are on/off
I'm planning on using the 'Niko Home Control' in my house, but like to use our own interface (Arduimotic).

I dont know if this still applies or if U found the solution for the Niko Home Control yet, i managed to control en get feedback from Niko Home control through an external application
an example of a Niko tcp command : {"cmd":"executeactions","id":0,"value1":100} this gives an id (for niko this is an action programmed in the controller, in my case a lightcircuit at my frontdoor) a value where 0 is off and 100 is on, feedback from the niko controller gives {"event":"listactions","data":[{"id":0,"value1":100}]} those commands can be tested by using a simple packetsender tot the ip of the niko controller on port 8000.
