RFXCOM and security

Post by **Wima** » Fri Mar 21, 2008 11:35 pm

Hi, here I am again.

Still playing around deciding what to purchase, ACRF2 or RFXCOM.

I use most of my door sensors (DS90) as status devices so not as security but only X10 (ON or OFF). How do I add such device being not a security device but as just another RF device with status.
Same for the MS90 motion detection.
These can only be selected in the security tab. In ACRF this can be checked in a box, its then excluded as a security device.

Is this also possible in RFXCOM ?

Thanks

Wil

see http://www.rfxcom.com/documents/hspi_RFXCOM.pdf chapter 5.4.1

There is an indicator Active Sensor that can be switched off.
When switched off the sensor is operational but does not act as a security sensor.

I noticed that, but when I check to box, there is no status visable in the HS status page (its blank). Or can I give a name to the status ?

did you trigger the sensor after you unchecked Active Sensor?

Status from DS90 toggles between "none" and " " (blank).
I can't manage to add an event to this action.

Wil,

This topic is more a subject for the Homeseer forum.
Can you send me an email with the HS log part where the DS90 is activated. Set debug level 2 in the RFXCOM plugin.
