Connecting to Loxone
The 1Home Server communicates with Loxone directly with the Loxone Miniserver over IP using Loxone's publicly documented Miniserver API. In the 1Home Server a Loxone gateway is the Loxone Miniserver.
In order to connect a Miniserver to the 1Home Server, go to the Integrations
tab on the 1Home local dashboard and under the Loxone integration, click Configure
.
In the Loxone settings, click under Gateways
the Add
button.

Known bug with port 443 (secure connection)
Release 1.8.1-loxone
contained a known bug that made it unable to connect to the Miniserver via TLS (port 443). In software release 2.0.0 we fixed this issue. We urge customers that used port 80 with their Miniserver 2nd generation, Miniserver Compact and Miniserver Go to update their device to the latest software release and use TLS (port 443) instead of the temporary workaround using port 80 without TLS support.
