Starts node-red instance and communicates with it.

This adapter uses the node-red server from https://github.com/node-red/node-red

**Note:** If in select ID dialog of the ioBroker node you cannot find some variable, restart node-red instance. By restarting the new list of objects will be created.

## Settings
