RFID Reader to stop a PIR sensor from signals

Post by Ritmeester »

I want to buy a RFID reader for my work garage.

Situation:

In my garage I have a PIR sensor. I walk there all the day, so the log file of this PIR sensor goes very fast to >5000 entries.

My idea is to buy a RFID card reader (key fob or numeric) to close the data line from this PIR sensor while I been in my garage. On the RFID reader must be a green (open) or a red (close) LED installed. My idea is t have the RFID reader outside and the electronics inside the garage.

I did a search on eBay and there is lot to buy. But what do I need and is safe to use? Does anyone else have this RFID readers and can help me to the right direction?

You could also change the log to keep track of fewer entries :) I have set it to 7 days. I am not interested if a device was turned on/off three weeks ago or so...
Setup > Log history

Your idea sounds like a dirty workaround for a problem that is not really critical to be honest :P

Thanks. Maybe this is a better idea.

If I change the log setting for “Light/Switches” to, for example 2 days, than this setting works for ALL Switches.

It would be nice to implement a feature that you can set per Switch (in this case a PIR sensor) a separate LOG time to overrule the standard setting in the Log History for this particular Switch.

Does this pir sensor have a way to set the re-arm time out? Then it would only reset and trigger again xx seconds after last detection. My zwave motion detectors work that way. During the day I see only a few events; the time someone is in the room and moving is one event so to say.

There are a lot of substitute for your sensor how about magnetic card reader where you can just scan it then doors or any compartment will be open?
It's so much cooler than a sensor because most of the time sensor fails. https://www.lintechtt.com/. Try this you might find something here that might help you.
