Just because I know that beginning from scratch could be hard : here is a small help I’ve written to help those who want to create nice Velbus applications !

Hope that will help you to understand official documentations

**Edit 03/02/2011 : added information about connexion between Velbus and Ethernet (through server).**  
**Edit 11/08/2011 : added information about checksum and some modules.**

Sorry if nothing was posted before, but between my office works (is taking more than reasonnable time), my family and my Velbus projects (VelbusCmd, Teo-Tea, FTP, …) book writing is less priority.

But here is new adds about Velbus protocol : [golfy.olympe.in/Velbus\_starter\_guide.pdf](http://golfy.olympe.in/Velbus_starter_guide.pdf)
