WTRFID Mini Keypad RFID/Z-Wave

Setup, Configuration and Use Runtime
34

Yes, the database change is still waiting for approval.

OK, here’s what I did (on a CentOS 6 machine):

  • shut down openHAB2
  1. download the FHEM package: Home of FHEM
  2. extract the archive
  3. run “make install”, FHEM will be installed in /opt/fhem
  4. before running FHEM I had to install some additional packages: perl-Device-SerialPort, perl-Crypt-Rijndael and usbutils
  5. start FHEM:
perl fhem.pl fhem.cfg
  1. click on “Everything”, there you should see your Zwave Controller “ZWDongle_0”, click on it
  2. at the bottom of the ZWDongle_0 page you should see the “nodeList” with all your Zwave nodes, named “UNKNOWN_1”, “UNKNOWN_2” and so on
  3. remove the back cover of your keypad
  4. at the top of the ZWDongle_0 page you can see two rows, one with a “set” button and one with a “get” button and some dropdowns. In the “set” row, choose “addNode” and “nwOn” and click the “set” button
  5. activate the inclusion mode of your keypad by holding the tamper lever for one second and then releasing it. FHEM writes some logfiles in /opt/fhem/log, there you should see an entry like
2017.01.05 10:21:37 3: ZWave got config for schlagelink/minikeypad.xml from ./FHEM/lib/openzwave_deviceconfig.xml.gz
  • wake up the keypad multiple times in order to initialize it in FHEM. The keypad creates it’s own logfile, so you can have a look what’s happening there (/opt/fhem/log/ZWave_ENTRY_CONTROL_29-2017.log in my case)
  1. now it’s getting interesting :slight_smile: press the “Home” or “Away” button on your keypad, wait for the LED to turn on, and put your RFID token in front of it. The log file should show something like
2017-01-04_19:07:48 ZWave_ENTRY_CONTROL_29 wakeup: notification
2017-01-04_19:08:37 ZWave_ENTRY_CONTROL_29 userCode: id 0 status 0 code 8fd7c20d412002800000
  • this is your RFID’s usercode, now you can store it on the keypad: go back to you browser, when you click on “Everything” you should see your keypad Zwave node, click on it to open the configuration page
  • again, you see a “set” and a “get” row. Choose “userCode” in the “set” row, and enter something like this in the textfield at the end:
5 1 8fd7c20d412002800000
  • where 5 is the usercode id, 1 is the status (activated) and the RFID’s usercode. Click on “set” to execute the command
  • now you can test it, you should see something like this in the log:
2017-01-04_19:09:31 ZWave_ENTRY_CONTROL_29 alarm: AccessControl: Keypad Unlock Operation, arg 0105
2017-01-04_19:09:32 ZWave_ENTRY_CONTROL_29 wakeup: notification
2017-01-04_19:09:39 ZWave_ENTRY_CONTROL_29 alarm: AccessControl: Keypad Lock Operation, arg 0105
2017-01-04_19:09:39 ZWave_ENTRY_CONTROL_29 wakeup: notification

That’s it, shut down FHEM, start openHAB2 again, and you’re done :slight_smile:

Regards, Christian
