PGM hardware setup
Posted: Sat Oct 31, 2015 11:50 pm
Hi,
What I want to achieve is to be able to turn on and off a light using the * button on a keyfob.
I have a PM30 with the accessory card fitted, so I can configure the keyfob to the PGM output.
The light will be switched from an MQTT topic.
What I am looking for help with is the hardware connection between the PGM output and an arduino which will generate the MQTT messages.
Searching around seem to suggest a voltage divider to step down the voltage.
Has anyone tried this or any other successful approach?
TIA
