Support for Notifications from 868MHz smoke/fire detectors

Overflow

Hey, I just had the idea the other day it would be pretty neat to be able to read the status of 868MHz fire alarms / smoke detectors using Pimatic and maybe send a push notification if anything is happening. This may really be an interesting feature as you would know if something goes down.

Any responses on that topic?

@akimov Well, you need a separate gateway for the 868 devices and most 868mhz protocols aren’t very easy to decode. There are also 433mhz smoke alarms. Why not get that ones?

also please have a look here http://forum.pimatic.org/topic/459/are-there-any-plans-to-include-homematic-components-as-plugin/2
there’s a request for homematic via CUL. Could be a possible option.

At the moment Pimatic is supporting the 433 MHz smoke detector Flamingo FA20RF as Alarm1 protocol.

You can get it via Amazon or ebay for example. It’s a common device : http://www.amazon.de/Flamingo-FA20RF-koppelbarer-Funkrauchmelder-Feuermelder/dp/B006ZV3UMI/

CUL / COC should already be supported https://github.com/dfischbach/pimatic-coc
The post @leader21 was bout integrating HMLAN which IP / HomeMatic gateway, while CUL is an USB stick.

I have also started working on a plugin for Jeelink, but most likely it will not support SmokeSensors in the short term
