Hi Ben
Just realised I didn’t answer a part of your email about the doing something with a keypad.
So my apologies as I just forgot as I’ve been trying to teach myself how to work these WT devices now my system seems to be working after reflashing my SD card.
I’d say yes, I’d be happy to help but I’d be more of a hindrance than a help as my background is electronics and programming is way above my comfort zone. But I appreciate your offer.
That said, I am considering getting a “cheap” keypad which will then interface with a Zigbee device, (a basic switch that would arm/disarm the alarm albeit I’ve not fully thought that out but I’m sure it’s doable. Trouble with that is you have two devices to do one job. But it would be useful as other household member would be able to use it more easier than using the WT UI.
That said, how do you activate your alarm, turn it on/off etc
The other thing I’m considering is to put a Zigbee or Zwave switch on the central heating boiler feed but in parallel with my current controller turning it on for a set period of time, like a boost say for 30 mins but not temperature at this stage.
Anyhow I need the alarm set up more than the heating at the moment.
So, I’d appreciate to know how you or others have done theirs.
Thanks
Alex
