Hi all I would like to make a simple security system just for test, using a magnetic contact and a presence sensor. The magnetic contact is installed on the front door and i would like it to work like this: Using an app as for eg. Rotini to activate the “system” using a code 1234 and to have a fe…

The challenging part will be entering the code. There is no simple way to do that with the built in user interfaces. However, I know nothing about Rotini, maybe that supports it. Assuming you can get the code into a Number or String Item, you can write rules with Timers to do all of the above witho…

My major concern would be reliability. What happens if your keypad (physical or software) can’t send? What happens then? (That’s obviously up to you) Blares sirens? Calls the police? If you wanted a physical keypad, you could use two Arduinos to transport the information to your OH server. The quest…

Correct, I was leaving the definition of secure to the user. Using Ethernet might be secure enough for some in that you aren’t broadcasting stuff through the air. Others may want MQTT over TLS. You could also run the keypad wires all the way to an Arduino setting next to the OH server and use serial…

Hi guys! Thanks for the answers. I found a way to go here where @jcid1 posted a nice config and its nearly close to what i would like to do. @awsnap the Rotiti app its free for the moment and i have it already installed on a 7" tablet. This is @Igor Gladkov work here and wiki . The pin that allows…
