My Config Collection (OH 1.8 ONLY!) - Might help Someone

adamcfrey · November 25, 2016, 4:45am

jcidi, Im new to openhab but a few months in and im pretty proud of what I have set up. but as expected i have the honeywell redlink gateway and wireless thermostat, its called the MHK1. I think that is different that the wifi thermostat you all are taking control of? I can access my system remoting via total connect at: https://mytotalconnectcomfort.com/portal/Device/Control/2211085

can you give me some beginners pointers since I am new to scripts etc…Im pretty must mastered bindings, items, and sitemap, but dont understand scripts yet.

Hi Adam,

If you are using mytotalconnect to manage your thermostat(as am i) them my scripts will work for you as well. Currently the only way to manage the thermostats linked to mytotalconnect are via their gateway. For instance my system sends all the commands (which would be the same as your setup) to mytotalconnect for processing which then sends them down to the actual thermostat. If you use my same scripts listed you should be good.

jcid1 · November 25, 2016, 4:57pm

Hey all,

Since i have added a lot more coding to my set-up i am posting my entire sanitized /etc/openhab folder which includes all custom scripts and sounds. Its easier then updating all these posts… Any time i add anything i will just update the zip file. If you have any questions just ask. My goal was to mirror my touch screen ADT system and then surpass it in free features ie email alerting, phone (follow me) integration, zones, battery updates, scenes, etc…

http://dload.cidcomm.com/openhab.bak.zip

Feature list:

Security system with ARMSTAY, ARMAWAY on 30s countdown, DISARM, with interface status updates and buttons.
Device battery alerting, email alerts on battery low etc…
Node health. Notifies you if a node hasnt responded in a while.
Standard door/window alerting when armed on what device set off the alarm ie: Bedroom window, Front door, etc.
Thermostat control (via mytotalcontrol)
Garage door control and alerting (R-PI)
Doorbell (MP3)
Asterisk speaker phone integration (acts as remote speakers for openhab around the house.
Smoke detector integration and siren alert activation on smoke or carbon alert.
Openhab battery monitoring and alerting. Emails you on loss of host power etc.
TV/Kodi integration. Turns on/off TV, Kodi etc. Tells you if they are on or off in app.
House lights come on to set brightnesses at dusk via sunset and off at midnight.
Bunch of different scenes to run.
etc…

Get crazy and integrate some more stuff!

adamcfrey · November 25, 2016, 9:51pm

awesome, i"ll get started…and thanks for the second post you made with all your updates…but promise i’ll have more questions

adamcfrey · November 25, 2016, 10:21pm

Oh one question I am customizing the themostat script and noticed the decice id number. is that one of the ids on the gateway on is that a 4 digit number on the back of the thermostat?

adamcfrey · November 25, 2016, 11:43pm

Sorry disregard my last message, I see it is the number at the end of the web address at total comfort.

I updated the username, copied all your files over to mine, but still not getting status…thoughts?

here is what the terminal shows…

jcid1 · November 26, 2016, 12:04am

run the script /etc/openhab/configurations/scripts/tstat and show me the output.

jcid1 · November 26, 2016, 12:05am

also if you create me a root account and access i can login and help also but your call.

adamcfrey · November 26, 2016, 4:05am

hum, now im very confused. I may have messed this up. the zip file you posted starts with etc/openhab.bak/configurations… etc. I took that as I should start at openhab.bak and copy your files over into the dirrectories above my C:\openhab folder. did I do that correctly? of does all this get copied into the C:\openhab\etc?

Sorry dont see a tstat in any of those locations…

adamcfrey · November 26, 2016, 4:06am

Hey havent got to the point of creating other accounts for access…and since this is a windows PC, not sure that will be easy?

adamcfrey · November 26, 2016, 5:41am

let me get my.openhab set up but until then, here is my startup…you can see im having trouble with my with some persistence items which I havent educated myself on just yet.

Hi Adam,

Sorry i didn’t realize but these custom scripts are for linux not windows. They wont work on winblows lol. Also my folder is called openhab. It just says openhab.bak as i made a backup of my folder.I also wouldnt recommend windows for a legit HA setup as its just not stable enough for everything and all the custom integrations.

adamcfrey · November 27, 2016, 2:36am

well then there we go :). right now Im have testing and setting up on windows but have been reading up on the best embedded machine to install on RPi etc…advice?

jcid1 · November 27, 2016, 4:57am

I personally wouldnt use any embedded device as they are two slow, no backup batteries or anything like that. Check out my post above and the netbook i used.I would go that direction as you always have a battery backup and stable device for when you start running the alarm system and tons of rules. You want something that has backup and can handle the load. Especially if your doing a full blown security system like mine. You want a backup battery or it defeats the purpose

ewgor · December 5, 2016, 5:42pm

Hi @jcid1

I’m trying to make a simple alarm system based on your example using only 3 magnetic contacts.
So to do that i made the following:

Added a few new groups and a string:
Group persist
Group:Contact:OR(OPEN,CLOSED) gDoorSensors (All)
Group gAllLights (All)
String Notification_Proxy
Added the items to the groups:
Contact Node01Door "Front Door [%s]" <frontdoor> (All, Contacts, TempHum, persist,gDoorSensors) { mqtt="<[mymosquitto:home/door:state:MAP(door.map)]" }
Contact Node01Geam1 "Back Door [%s]" <contact> (Contacts, persist,gDoorSensors) { mqtt="<[mymosquitto:home/door1:state:MAP(door.map)]" }

Switch bedroom_light_two "Second light" (persist,gAllLights) {zwave="3:2:command=switch_binary" }
Added new items for the alarm system as you have:
/* Alarm System */

end

It doesnt work! I would like to send me an email and to turn ON the lights in gDoorSensors group in case the alarm is Armaway, and to ust send me an email in case of Armstay!
When i press Armaway or Armstay its not doing anything and if i press Disarm the status turns from UNKNOWN with grey color in Disarmed with green color and stays that way whatever i press ArmStay or Armaway.

Could you please take a look on these files?

PS: I also copied all the scripts in my script folder, the openhab.cfg looks alright. I didnt test the sounds if they work or not couse i dont have a speaker on my rpi yet.

Thanks alot.

Hello,

What version of openhab are you using? Also what zstick?

ewgor · December 5, 2016, 8:57pm

HI,
I’m using OH 1.8.3 and the Aeon Aotec gen 5. Could be because of some missing addons? Could you please tell what addons are you using?

EDIT: Nevermind, I saw you split entries in your .items into two different codeblocks.

What’s in your log file?

During today I found and made some corrections in the rules/items according to my settings. At one point I was able to armstay and opening a contact it was turning all my lights on so that was one of the things I wanted. Second thing is to set the email, doesn’t work right now and don’t know why! I use the same email in the oh.cfg but is not sending receiving any email at all!
Unfortunately the MQTT gateway and my node point where I have the sensor attached doesn’t want to communicate anymore and I can’t make tests for the alarm system.
I think there is another problem with the scripts, I saw in the logs that couldn’t execute the script … but I can’t remember which one or for what command, armstay, armway or disarm. I’ll try tomorrow to see what’s going on with the sensor node and I’ll try to figure how can I get this alarm on.
Thanks for help, keep in touch.
All the best.

News, I made it with the email and right now I receive email every time I press armstay, arm away or disarm. It was a problem related to the gmail account settings that I needed to allow less secure app!
Still struggling to make the Mqtt gateway to communicate with the node where I have all sensors connected! Could be any problem related to persistence?
Another question about the alarm system: how did you think the armaway mode because I cannot do it because I have motion in the area? So this means I cannot araway the system if I have the moving sensor installed near the control panel because the sensor will detect moving! Normally I think it should have a timer which will aloud you to armaway wherever the motion is placed and only after some defined seconds to start the armaway mode. What do you think about this? Can you armaway your system if you are near a motion sensor?
