Thank you so much @irekz , this is absolutely fantastic and an amazing achievement! Pleasure! I am currently trying to modify this library for use with Samsung SmartThings (a smart home controller) since I can then use the PIR sensors to trigger lights, whilst also reacting to alarm events. I am a ...

I was halfway through doing this exact same project but instead using a Particle Photon. A much smaller board, which runs on 5V or 3.3V. This is a great starting position. Hi. If Wemos D1 is too big for you - you can also use Wemos D1 Mini. I used D1 as it has a build in voltage regulator and can t...

You were correct it was my wiring.
Thanks a lot for your help!

Hi Passy.
Let me know if all works correctly on your Powermax+?
Any changes to the code required?, if yes - would love to hear what's needs to be updated so other users can benefit.

Cheers,
Irek

Hi Irek, I followed your clear instructions for my Powermax+ and I am able to connect my WeMos D1 board via wifi. However, when I am running PowerMax.exe, I don't think the handshake with the Powermax+ happens (the last message in the log is PC [17:39:18]0x0D,0x24,0x00,0x00,0x36,0x22,0x00,0x00,0x00...

Hi. Have a look at my C++ source code: https://github.com/irekzielinski/PowerMaxAlarm/blob/master/Libraries/PMax/pmax.cpp look at: void PowerMaxAlarm::OnStatusChange(const PlinkBuffer * Buff) there is a call to OnAlarmStarted - and it takes into account ignoring of "delay entry" condition....

Did anybody try to connect the $2-$3 ESP8266 WiFi<-> 3.3V serial module directly to the PowerMax, to network enable it ? Then use a remote PC / AP to render the we interface, and talk to the PowerMax Pro through WiFi -> the ESP8266 Shuldn't this be easy and doable ? Just need the FTDI to program th...

Irek, I found the RS-232 pin-out for the Powermax+ at: http://www.domoticaforum.eu/viewtopic.php?f=68&t=6581&start=45#p63022. Richard BTW. I have been working with other user that has Powermax+ and for this panel to work you need this modification in source code (code in red needs to be add...

Thanks Richard.
I will add this information to the github!

Witch features are you implemented on web server? Could you post some screenshoots? Sorry for the delay in response. I have been on holiday. Web server allows to query state of the system (it outputs a JSON page). To control the system - a telnet interface is exposed. All of this can be easily modi...

Irek, My Powermax is the + (plus) series and as a result your diagram showing connection of the esp8266 to the RS232 port is incorrect. My connection has 12 pins on it instead of 10. Before I continue on I need to make sure your code will run on the esp8266 connected to the Powermax+? I will find t...

Irek, Yes, your instructions worked perfectly.....thank you! Richard Cool :-) I described this procedure on GitHub: https://github.com/irekzielinski/PowerMaxAlarm/tree/master/PowerMaxEsp8266 If you have any issues, don't hesitate to contact me or raise it via: https://github.com/irekzielinski/Power...

Hi, 1. When compiling the sketch I am getting following error: sketch/pmax.cpp:1650: undefined reference to `os_getLocalTime(unsigned char&, unsigned char&, unsigned char&, unsigned char&, unsigned char&, unsigned char&)' When I remove the os_getLocalTime from the pmax.cpp f...

Irek, The first error is that it cannot find the Pmax.h file which I have put in multiple folders. So I removed that #include to see how far I could get but there are multiple other errors so I gave up. So, either I have done something completely wrong or your code is just not ready to be sent to t...

HI, Anybody have an idea, to remotely trigger an alarm, by the RS-232 interface? Maybe via a panic button emulation or another smart idea? Hi Bart. I did some research and have a plan to achieve just that. In my setup I have Wemos D1 microcontroller installed inside the alarm box. It looks like tha...
