2. Description This document describes the installation and configuration of the RFXCOM plug-in and associated devices. The RFXCOM plug-in enables the connection of the RFXCOM transceivers, transmitters, receivers, RFXLAN Digital I/O and the W800RF32 receiver into Homeseer. A wide range of sensors is supported by the RFXCOM receivers. The RFXtrx315 and the 310MHz RFXCOM transmitter can control US X10 lighting and security and the US X10 Ninja. The RFXtrx433 and the RFXCOM transmitter can control a lot of European 433.92MHz devices. For the list of supported devices see the transmitter user guides. The RFXrec433 can receive the same sensors as the RFXtrx433. See the RFXtrx User Guide for the list of supported sensors.

3. Installation Use the Updater function in Homeseer 3 to download and install the RFXCOM HS3 plug-in. Enable the RFXCOM plug-in in the Setup – Interfaces tab.

Language The plug-in comes with a language file that contains text which is used on the Homeseer Home page to display device status messages and so on. The plug-in supports these messages: English, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Italian, Norwegian, Spanish, Swedish Hide battery sensors dynamically If “Hide battery sensors dynamically” is selected, the battery sensors with OK status are hidden. The RFXSensor System Voltage Sensor is processed as a battery sensor. Input device Battery low messages are only displayed in the Sensor Messages Panel if the “Hide battery sensors dynamically” is selected! Use metric system When selected the values are displayed using the metric system.

• Temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit

• Rain sensors in mm or inch

• Barometric sensors in hPa or inHG

• Wind sensors in m/sec or mph Auto update RFXMeter overrun RFXMeter overrun is automatically corrected by adding 16777216 to the calibration value if an overrun is detected. This checkbox should only be deselected if problems are experienced with automatic corrections. Security, Input and Virtual sensor HouseCode The default house code used for these sensors. It is allowed to change the house codes at any time as they not referenced by the house code in the plug-in.

4.1. X10 configuration On the General configuration page you can also configure for each RF received house code how the packet will be processed if an X10 lighting RF signal is received. Note: this configuration is not used for X10 security sensors as they don’t use house/device codes. Full = the received X10 RF On/Off command is forwarded to the power line Status only = if an X10 device is configured in HS the device status will be set. Disable = all received X10 RF commands for this house code are ignored.

4.1.1. Add an X10 sensor (lighting)

Enable the X10 protocol in the receiver. Open the RFXCOM - General configuration page, At the X10 config select the House Code used by the sensor to STATUS ONLY, Add the X10 sensor on the Homeseer Status page.

6.4. Input device configuration fields Input devices configuration is done in the device configuration. On the RFXCOM tab you will find these fields: Sensor ID: This field contains the sensor ID. Some sensor types will get another sensor ID if a battery change is done. To assign the new ID wait until the sensor has transmitted a packet and select now the new ID. For physical sensors with multiple sensors inside (temperature, humidity, battery) it is only necessary to change one sensor, the other sensors will be updated too. Address Address field, free to change. Suffix: This suffix is added to the displayed value on the status page. Calibration value: This value is added to the sensor value or subtracted if a minus sign is entered before the value. Calibration value = (sensor value * Divide By) - Sensor value Divide by: The total value (sensor value + the calibration value) is divided by the number entered in this field. High and Low alert levels: These parameters are available for a selection of the Input devices. Enter a value for warning and alert levels. Use the value as displayed for the sensor. For example if you have a temperature sensor and want warnings at +2 and +22, and alarms at -1 and +30 enter these values: High Alert Levels: Warning level=22, Alarm level=30 Low Alert Levels: Warning level=2, Alarm level=-1 Show Icon: When selected, an icon (if available) is displayed on the status page. Display humidity text: (Humidity sensors only) When selected, the text Normal, Comfort, Wet is displayed behind the humidity value. Battery Changed / Expected battery life: This field is only shown for battery sensors. Enter the date that you have changed the battery and the numbers of days you estimate the battery will function. 7 days before this battery life expires you will get a message in the message panel. Comm failure timeout: IMPORTANT: do not change this value unless you know what you are doing. This is the timeout for the heart-beat signal from the sensor. If no signal has been received for the indicated minutes a Communication Failure status will be assigned to the sensor and a message is displayed in the Input Messages Panel. No check on heart-beat timeouts will be done if a value of zero is entered and no communication failures are displayed even if the sensor is dead.

Example for BlindsT9;

8.13. Blyss (only available with RFXtrx433, RFXtrx433E or RFXtrx433XL)

House/device codes A-P/1-5 can be used. Some Blyss devices, like the Blyss motors, require a special command sequence number. To simplify it; 0,1,2,3,4,0,1,… This sequence number is normally created by the Blyss remote but now also by the RFXtrx433. If you use a Blyss remote and the application (Domoticz, DomotiGa, Homeseer…) does not sync with the received Blyss command you will see that you need to send multiple commands with the RFXtrx433 before the Blyss device will respond. For example: The Blyss remote transmits with the sequence numbers 0,1,2 If the RFXtrx433 transmits now with sequence number 0 it will not be seen by the Blyss device as a valid command and at the time the RFXtrx433 transmits the commands 1,2,3 the command will be detected as valid when it receives the command with sequence number 3. The same is true for the remote. If you transmit commands with the RFXtrx433 and after that with a Blyss remote you need to transmit several commands with the remote before the Blyss device responds.

8.74. Rollertrol R-series, Hasta New - BLINDST0 motor (only available with RFXtrx433, RFXtrx433E or RFXtrx433XL)

Rollertrol and Hasta motors are BlindsT0 Output devices. For normal use do not enable the BlindsT0 protocol in the RFXtrx433 or RFXtrx433E. Protocol enabling in the RFXtrx433 operates only on receive. For transmit you do not have to enable protocols because transmit protocols are always enabled in the RFXtrx433. RFXtrx433 or RFXtrx433E: To receive the BlindsT0 remotes you need to enable temporarily the BlindsT0 protocol. This should only be used to receive the ID of the BlindsT0 remote because all other protocols are disabled if BlindsT0 receive is enabled. For normal use enable only the protocols you need to receive for example only Oregon. RFXtrx433XL: To receive the BlindsT0 remotes you need to enable the BlindsT0 protocol. The received ID of the remote can be used by Homeseer so that you do not need to pair Homeseer with the BlindsT0 motor if the motor is already paired with a remote. But you can also use another ID and pair Homeseer as an additional or unique remote in the motor.

9. Security devices

Send X10 Arm/Disarm commands to transmitter. Select an RFXCOM transmitter to be used to transmit an Arm/Disarm or Panic X10 security command when the value of the RFXCOM Alarm Panel State is changed. If the RFXCOM Alarm Panel State value changes to Arm, Disarm, Arm pending or Panic then the X10 Arm, Disarm, Arm pending or Panic command will be transmitted. If the state changes to an Arm state from an Arm Pending nothing will be transmitted because the Arm-Pending has been transmitted and the X10 Alarm panel should take the action to switch to Arm after a delay. Remote ID. The default address code of the simulated key fob is 165. The address code can be changed in this field. The value for this parameter can be from 0 to 255. Security Delays in seconds. This value is used to set the timeout for Arm Pending delays and the delayed sensors. Security Unlock Code. This is a 4 digit unlock codes used by the Disarm button of the RFXCOM Alarm Control Panel. If 0000 is entered the unlock code is not used. The RFXCOM Alarm Unlock Panel is only visible when the unlock code is different from 0000. Use unlock also for Arm buttons. When this box is checked the unlock code is also used for the Arm-Home and Arm-Away buttons of the RFXCOM Alarm Control Panel. Display Panic button. To get a Panic button available in the Alarm Control Panel tick this checkbox, Go to the Homeseer Status page and delete the Alarm Control Panel, Restart Homeseer or restart (disable, save, enable, save) the RFXCOM plug-in.

9.1. Quick start: add an X10 or Visonic security sensor For the older USB/LAN receiver; enable the X10 protocol in the receiver on the RFXCOM Interfaces config page. For the RFXtrx/RFXrec: enable X10 for X10 security sensor, Visonic for Visonic security sensors, Meiantech for Meiantech security sensors. Go to the RFXCOM Security Dev. Configuration page Click Clr Heard. Trigger the security sensor, Click ADD on the RFXCOM Security Dev. Configuration page to add the Security sensor found.

9.2. RFXCOM Security panel The RFXCOM security panel has 4 devices:

Alarm Panel State: This device displays the state like Disarmed, Armed-Away, Armed-Home etc. When the user tries to arm the panel and one of the active and enabled security sensors has an alarm or motion state or has an error condition like low battery, tamper or communication failure it is not possible to arm the panel and the status “Problem” is displayed. The Panel Status will display “Not Ready” and the Alarm Messages Panel will show the kind of problem. Solve the problem or Disable the sensor that creates the problem and try to arm the panel again. Alarm Panel Status: This device displays the status like Ready, Ready Home, Alarm, Panic, Arm Pending or Not Ready. When the user tries to arm the panel and the Panel Status displays “Not Ready” then check the Panel Display, which will show the kind of problem. Solve the problem or Disable the sensor that creates the problem and try to arm the panel again. Alarm Panel Messages: This panel displays alarm messages and possible sensor errors like battery empty, tamper or communication failure. All stored messages can be displayed with the buttons Up-Down. The messages can be cleared with the Clr button. All security sensors are checked for problems when the RFXCOM plug-in starts and if an abnormal status is found it will be displayed. The DeviceValue of this panel is incremented each time a new error message appears. A Device Value Change event can be used to trigger an action, for example send a SMS Text Message containing the error message of the panel. Or use the standard NMA function to report warning and alarm messages. Alarm Panel Control: This device is in fact a virtual key fob with Arm, Arm-Home, Disarm and an optional Panic button. Enable “Display Panic button” on the configuration page of this device to show the Panic button. The buttons cannot be used by Guest users. The unlock code must be entered before pressing Disarm if the unlock code has been configured different from 0000.

© RFXCOM 2014-2019 RFXCOM User Guide - Version 30.23 90/106

Alarm Panel Unlock: This device is used to enter an optional unlock code for the Alarm Panel Control - Disarm button. This device can be made hidden if the security unlock code is 0000 and therefore not used. The Unlock code is also used for the Arm-Home and Arm-Away buttons if the selection box is checked on the configuration page.

Security Delays in seconds. This value is used to set the timeout for Arm Pending delays and the delayed sensors. Security Unlock Code. This is a 4 digit unlock codes used by the Disarm button of the RFXCOM Alarm Control Panel. If 0000 is entered the unlock code is not used. The RFXCOM Alarm Unlock Panel is only visible when the unlock code is different from 0000. Use the Unlock Code also for Arm-Home and Arm-Away. When this box is checked the unlock code is also used for the Arm-Home and Arm-Away buttons of the RFXCOM Alarm Control Panel. Display a Panic button on the Alarm Control Panel. To get a Panic button available in the Alarm Control Panel tick this checkbox, Go to the Homeseer Status page and delete the Alarm Control Panel, Restart Homeseer or restart (disable, save, enable, save) the RFXCOM plug-in. The Alarm Control Panel will be created again with the Panic button added. To remove the Panic button, uncheck this checkbox, delete the Alarm Control Panel and restart HS or restart the plug-in.

9.3. Security sensor configuration fields Sensor ID: The easiest way to find the Sensor ID for a sensor if you have more sensors of this type is to use RFreceiver or RFXmngr. In most cases there is a LED on the sensor that blinks when a message is transmitted. At the same time the message will be displayed on the RFreceiver/RFXmngr screen with the sensor ID. Important: the 1st sensor ID displayed at Sensor ID is the current sensor ID. When a battery is exchanged in an X10 Security sensor the sensor ID will change in most cases. The new Sensor ID can be selected in the Sensor ID field. Type: Enter the device type. This device type is displayed on the Homeseer status page. It is a good practice to enter the correct sensor type here like DS10, MCT302… HS Code: This is the Homeseer house code and the device code used for this device. The house code is assigned by Homeseer and can’t be changed. The house code is not yet available when the first sensor is added and will be assigned when adding this first sensor. Only free device codes are displayed in the list. Active Sensor: When enabled, the sensor is used in the RFXCOM Alarm panel. If this indicator is not enabled the sensor is operational but not used in the alarm panel. This sensor can then be used for example as status indication of a post-box without triggering an alarm when the postman opens the post-box. Only used in Away: When enabled, the sensor is not used in Arm-Home but will only be used in Arm-Away. The alarm system can be set to Arm-Home even if this sensor will have an alarm condition. In most cases the motion sensors will have set this flag so that you will be able to walk inside without triggering an alarm. Delayed sensor: If checked this sensor will not set an alarm until the Security delay has timed out. No alarm will be set if the Alarm Panel is disarmed before the timeout occurs. The Arm commands of a key fob remote are normally without delay. But if Delayed sensor is checked for any type of security remote (KR10/21/SH624/MCT234) the Arm-Away and Arm-Home commands from this remote are seen as “Arm-Away-Max-delay” and “Arm-Home-Max-delay”. Note: some X10 sensors have also a hardware switch to set delayed actions. It has the same result in this RFXCOM Alarm Panel as the software Delayed sensor. Panic Sensor: When enabled, the sensor is setting an alarm condition even if the alarm panel is not armed. This can be used for example for a water leakage sensor or a smoke detector. Battery Changed / Expected battery life: This field is only shown for battery sensors. Enter the date that you have changed the battery and the numbers of days you estimate the battery will function. 7 days before this battery life expires you will get a message in the message panel. Comm failure timeout: IMPORTANT: do not change this value unless you know what you are doing. This is the timeout for the heart-beat signal from the sensor. If no signal has been received for the indicated minutes a Communication Failure status will be assigned to the sensor and a message is displayed in the RFXCOM Alarm Panel Display. No check on heart-beat timeouts will be done if a value of zero is entered and no communication failures are displayed even if the sensor is dead.

Each active security sensor has a button to Disable the sensor for the alarm system. This button cannot be used by Guest users. If the sensor has to be disabled temporarily for example due to an empty battery or another problem then click the Disable button. It is necessary to enter the unlock code before clicking the Disable button if the Unlock Code is enabled (different from 0000). The sensor becomes disabled and the alarm panel can be armed now even if that sensor has problems. After the sensor is repaired the sensor can be enabled again using the Enable button. Security sensors indicated as not active don’t have the Disable/Enable buttons.

9.4. Battery sensor The battery sensor device is default hidden. When a battery empty status is detected the battery sensor device will become visible. If the expected battery life time is different from zero you will receive a reminder message in the Alarm Panel Display starting 7 days before the end.

9.5. Smoke detector SD90, KD101, SA30, SA33, RM174RF

For a smoke sensor select Active sensor and Panic sensor. When smoke detected the RFXCOM alarm panel will be set to alarm even if the panel is not armed. For the SD90 enable the X10 protocol in the receiver. This sensor has alive and battery low. For the KD101 no protocol to be enabled, this sensor is always received. No alive or battery low. For SA30 and SA33 enable the Oregon protocol. No alive or battery low.

9.6. Door/Window sensor Supported sensors are X10 security sensors, Visonic PowerCode and Meiantech.

9.7. Motion sensor Supported sensors are X10 security sensors, Visonic PowerCode and Meiantech.

9.8. Virtual Security Sensor This sensor is used to link another device using a script. This could be for example an AC sensor.

If the linked sensor does not transmit at regular intervals a device status you have to configure the Comm failure timeout to zero.

10. Digital I/O Digital I/O lines are available on the RFXCOM LAN devices. The Output lines have command buttons: High, Low and T1 to T9. High will put the output line into a high level (3,3 Volt) Low will put the output line into a low level (0 Volt) T1 to T9 will toggle the line for 1 to 9 seconds. The older types have a Lantronix XPort, Matchport or WiPort inside. The XPort has only 2 digital I/O lines. The Matchport and WiPort have 8 digital I/O lines. Input lines must be polled on the Lantronix controllers. The RFXLAN has 8 digital I/O lines and has a push function and it is therefore not necessary to poll the RFXLAN for level changes on digital input lines. The add the Digital I/O go to the RFXCOM Digital I/O config page and select the Digital I/O device to add. If a Digital I/O is added a total of 2 or 8 Digital I/O line devices will be added depending on the type. IMPORTANT: if you delete one Digital I/O device than all associated Digital I/O devices will be deleted too!

The TCP/IP address can only be configured on the Master Digital I/O device. The default port to be used is 30704

11.4. Functions for Security alarm panel

11.4.1. SetAlarmPanel (ByVal seccmd As Integer) As Integer

The alarm panel state can be set using this script function. The value of seccmd can be one of these “Remote” commands: 'REMOTE commands

Public Enum SEC_REMOTE As Integer

ArmAway = 1

ArmAwayMaxDelay = 2

ArmHome = 3

ArmHomeMaxDelay = 4

Disarm = 5

Panic = 8

Alarm = 14

End Enum

Example: to set the Alarm panel to Arm-Away:

hs.PluginFunction("rfxcom", "", "SetAlarmPanel", {CInt(SEC_REMOTE.Disarm)})

Check the status of the Alarm Panel Status device on the status Ready or Ready Home before you call SetAlarmPanel() function. This function returns the Alarm Panel State value after execution of the SetAlarmPanel function. 'Alarm panel state commands

Public Enum SEC_PANEL As Integer

Disarmed = 0

PendArmHome = 1

PendArmAway = 2

ArmedHome = 3

ArmedAway = 4

Problem = 5

End Enum

11.5. Functions for Security unlock panel

11.5.1. SecUnlock(ByVal strDigit As String)

strDigit must contain the 4 characters of the unlock code. After a call to this sub the buttons on the Alarm Panel Control will use this code. It has the same effect as entering the unlock code manually on the Alarm Unlock Panel.

hs.PluginFunction("RFXCOM","","SecUnlock", new Object() {"1234"})

11.6. Transmit a Lighting4 – PT2262 command Note: This function is now also possible using a Lighting4 Output device!!! This function transmits a Lighting4 command in PT2262 format using scripts. The first parameter (1 in this example) is the RFXtrx number, The second parameter is the command (hex FFFFFF in this example) The third parameter is the pulse length (350usec in this example)

hs.PluginFunction("RFXCOM","","PT2262", new Object() {1,&HFFFFFF,350})

Examples for a proluxx screen, save each command in a .vb file in the HS3 scripts directory: RFXCOM_proluxx_up.vb file contents: Sub Main(Optional ByVal pParms As String = "") if hs.PluginFunction("RFXCOM","","PT2262", new Object() {1, &HED5952, 456}) then ’proluxx up command hs.Writelog("RFXCOM", "Lighting4 cmd transmitted") else hs.Writelog("RFXCOM", "Lighting4 cmd NOT transmitted") End If End Sub

RFXCOM_proluxx_stop.vb file contents: Sub Main(Optional ByVal pParms As String = "") if hs.PluginFunction("RFXCOM","","PT2262", new Object() {1, &HED5958, 456}) then ’proluxx stop command hs.Writelog("RFXCOM", "Lighting4 cmd transmitted") else hs.Writelog("RFXCOM", "Lighting4 cmd NOT transmitted") End If End Sub

RFXCOM_proluxx_down.vb file contents: Sub Main(Optional ByVal pParms As String = "") if hs.PluginFunction("RFXCOM","","PT2262", new Object() {1, &HED5954, 456}) then ’proluxx down command hs.Writelog("RFXCOM", "Lighting4 cmd transmitted") else hs.Writelog("RFXCOM", "Lighting4 cmd NOT transmitted") End If End Sub

12. Synchronize RFXCOM alarm panel with an alarm panel

12.1. Arm/Disarm the 433.92MHz X10 panel The X10 alarm panels (for example SC9000) can be synchronized with the RFXCOM software alarm panel using an RFXCOM transmitter/RFXtrx433. On the Alarm Control panel S_ALARM[4]Q configuration page you select a RFXCOM transmitter to be used to transmit an Arm/Disarm or Panic X10 security command when the value of the RFXCOM Alarm Panel State is changed. The ID used in the simulated X10 security remote is also configured on this page. After configuration pair the simulated X10 security remote with the X10 alarm panel. The X10 Arm, Disarm, Arm pending or Panic command will be transmitted if the RFXCOM Alarm Panel State value changes to Arm, Disarm, Arm pending or Panic. If the state changes to an Arm state from an Arm Pending nothing will be transmitted because the Arm-Pending has been transmitted and the X10 Alarm panel should take the action to switch to Arm after a delay.

12.2. Arm/Disarm the Visonic panel To arm/disarm the Visonic panel you have to use a Visonic key fob and switch the pushbutton contacts using relays. An option is to use an RFXio or Relay board connected to an RFXLAN for this purpose. Solder a wire to each pushbutton contact and switch these lines to the ground wire.

12.3. Synchronize the RFXCOM panel with the alarm panel You can use X10 to synchronize the RFXCOM software alarm panel with the Visonic. Use an XM10 on the Visonic. The X10 alarm panel has standard a X10 connection. Create two X10 devices in Homeseer, one for Arm-Home and one for Arm-Away. Configure these X10 devices also in the X10 or Visonic panel to switch on an Arm-Home, Arm-Away and Disarm status change. Create Events on these two Homeseer X10 devices. When the devices switch ON then run the Arm-Away or Arm-Home script. When one of the devices switches to OFF then set the Alarm Panel State to Disarmed. If you have a siren then switch this device also off. Important: disable the X10 RF house code that is used for the alarm panel synchronization on the RFXCOM X10 configuration tab so that it would not be possible to switch the software alarm panel using a simple X10 remote.
