RF security sensors.
The following module type decodes RF signals transmitted from RFXSensor modules and receivedbya
W800RF32A/AE or RFXCOM RF receiver, and maps them to a Housecode|Unit address.
RFXSENSOR -Adecoder for RFXSensor transmitters
and external sensors. Tw o parameters are required, the
base_address of the sensor and a mnemonic for the type
of sensor,e.g., Temperature/Humidity,Temp/Barometric
Pressure, etc. The mnemonic will be one of: TH, TB, TV,
TP,TT, orT.
Example:
ALIAS Basement L9 RFXSENSOR 0x20 TH
The RF signals sent by the sensor with base_address 0x20 will be decoded as RFX Temperature and Rela-
tive Humidity functions received(RCVA) at Housecode|Unit L9.
See man page x10rfxsensors(5) for full details.
The following module types decode RF signals transmitted by RFXMeter sensors. Each requires as a
parameter the ID address of the sensor.
RFXPOWER -Electric Watt-Hour meter.
RFXWATER -Water meter.
RFXGAS -Gas meter.
RFXPULSE -Pulse meter.
RFXCOUNT -General counter.
Example:
ALIAS MyWaterMeter C9 RFXWATER 0x04
Module type DIGIMAX decodes RF signals transmitted by the DigiMax 210 wireless thermostat and
receivedbythe 433.92 MHz RFXCOM X10 RF receiverinvariable length packet mode. Its parameter is
the 16-bit ID of the thermostat.
Module types ORE_xxx decode signals transmitted by various Oregon remote sensors and receivedbythe
433.92 MHz RFXCOM X10 RF receiverinvariable length packet mode. See man page x10oregon(5) for
full descriptions.
Module type ELS_ELEC1 decodes signals transmitted by the Electrisave CM113 Electricity Monitor sen-
sor and receivedbythe 433.92 MHz RFXCOM X10 RF receiverinvariable length packet mode. The
optional directive "ELS_VOLTA GE<voltage>" specifies a nominal ACvoltage to be multiplied by the
measured current to display an apparent power.See page X10oregon(5) for more information.
Module type OWL_ELEC2 decodes signals transmitted by the OWL CM119 Electricity Monitor sensor
and receivedbythe 433.92 MHz RFXCOM X10 RF receiverinvariable length packet mode. The directive
"OWL_VOLTA GE<voltage>" specifies the nominal ACvoltage to be used to compute the Power and
Energy values. See page X10oregon(5) for more information.
SwitchLinc and LampLinc modules can be manually configured to always turn on to some levelless than
the maximum (32), or always resume the previous setting. If you’ve configured your modules in either of
these ways, you must inform Heyu of the fact by adding the module option ´ONLEVEL nn´ or ´ONLEVEL
RESUME´.
NOTE: In order for the Heyu state engine to properly track the state of modules with the ´resume´ feature
(LM14A and SwitchLinc/LampLinc option), its memory must be synchronized with the module´s memory.
This can be done by sending the module an X10 command setting it at a known levelgreater than the ´Off´
level, or by having it respond to a status request with a preset/xstatus levelgreater than the ´Off´ level.
