Low cost window/door sensor

[nmaster]

Thank you Raspberry Piet.

I'll try one on these detector to see if it can work.

Keep us informed in this topic!

I created a small and simple Arduino based device and some code to be able to link any of these cheap 433Mhz devices to the RFXCOM & Domoticz.
All information can be found here: http://www.thice.nl/convert-cheap-433mh ... convertor/
Works really well here.

I bought also some of the 2262 switches but due to the fact that it only sends on "Off" or only an "On" command. I thought this wouldn't be a problem because I thought this would be solvable with some blocky events. But it does not send only an "Off" signal but the switch is also on "Off" and stays "Off". Therefore you can create a blocky event but this gets into a loop (switch is set to "on" therefore it is set to "off" and that sets it to "on" etc.) or doesn't doe anything at all.
Somebody knows a solution to this?

Hi,

Just received this cheap smoke detector http://www.aliexpress.com/item/433MHz-3 ... 52593.html

It is detected like other 2262.

There is jumper to set 1.5 / 3.3 / 4.7 M and code.

Set an "off delay" for 10 seconds in the switch settings. that' how I use mine

I have it working now but there is some strange thing in the blocky.

I named the PT2262 switch "Signaalgever - 01" and added a switch off delay of 1 second.

Signaalgever - 01

Then I created a virtual sensor called "Schakelaar - 01"

Schakelaar - 01

With this 2 I created a event.

Blocky

This works but the thing I think is a bug is the "Schakelaar - 01" must be "On" or "Open" but i have to set them to "On" or "Off". So if i change in the above "Open" to "On" and "Closed" to "Off" it doesn't work anymore.

I think that schakelaar - 01 must be contact instead of door lock as switch type.

I think that schakelaar - 01 must be contact instead of door lock as switch type.

That's possible but the PT2262 switch is connected to a door so thats why I used the doorswitch. Nevertheless is works but not as I expected because the state is "Open" and it must be set with a "On" command.

But a door lock is a electric lock on the door.
So On means door locked and open means door unlocked.

The switch type contact is an magnetic contact that detects if the door is open or closed.

I also received this cheap sensor today.

In my case it only sends an 'on' signal. I put the off delay at 5 seconds. If yours only sends 'off', create an 'on' delay

You can then create an event like this:

Code: Select all

IF doorcontact = on AND lamp1 = Off
DO SET lamp1 = On FOR 5 minutes

Mine has an PT2264 chip, and is recognized as 'Lighting4', subtype 'PT2262'.

I have the jumper on the yellow place like in this picture: http://i58.tinypic.com/16j3grc.jpg (and also the jumper in the left corner, and the 3M3 jumper).

I cant find my door sensor in Domoticz. Any idea?
- Latest version Domoticz
- Lightning checked on "set mode"
- New Battery
- Allowed to find new hardware
- Red led works.
- Tried 2 new batterys

[Heisenberg]

It should work.
What does your log say? Is there a new device recognized like this:
Tue Dec 30 17:27:10 2014 (RFXtrx433E) Lighting 4 (Unknown)

If not then try to set your jumper (a1h) to the lower pins

Got a 315Mhz version instead of 433Mhz?
(Check printed text on top of the metal saw filter)

There it is. R315A

[ThinkPad]

Ouch!

Fortunately they aren't very expensive

[Dountill]

I already contacted banggood, i ordered the 433 version, so it's not my fault. Anyway, i also ordered 2 others from eBay to play with

Is the problem that you've posted here solved yet?: http://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=4740
