Hi All

I have been locked in hotel isolation, had to much spare time so I have been working on a few little projects. This is my first serious sketch, although many of the ideas are borrowed and Im sure it could have been done a much easier way.
The motivation for this project was to free me from carrying my phone.
My project has a keypad with password access control. The keypad takes 6 different passwords and can operate 20 different functions with the combination of the password and extension code.
The passwords and user names are updateable from the controller. All 20 zones can all be set as active or not for each user from the controller.
There is also a motion sensor and door open/close switch included in the functions.
The sketch needs to be installed on and arduino mega due to its size.
I have only briefly tested with a controller, most testeing was from the arduino ide serial monitor through the serial gateway.
I will include the signing to this when i get around to the build.
I'm out of isolation tomorrow so little will be done for a while, have look see what you think. I not sure how usefull it will actually be but was a fun learning experience for me.
The password and zones active needs to be set from the controller or gateway serial monitor before this is operational. else maybe can comment out loadza();
loadpw(); loadun(); in setup to use the coded passwords,usernames and activate all zones.

Cheers Mysensors Community , the ability do do something like this was only a dream a few years ago.

I have had to put the sketch on github as it was to large to post on this page. Click on this link to download the sketch from github if you want to check it out. MultiZone Keypad & Password sketch

@mfalkvidd Cheers! This project will keep me occupied for my 2 week hotel isolation stay.

Openhab 3.2 now contains a community marketplace for bindings, perhaps the mysensors binding can be made available there?

Hi

Just tested out the mysensors openhab binding (org.openhab.binding.mysensors-3.2.0-SNAPSHOT) in the link provided by vores8 a few messages above.
Testing with the serial gateway, openhab 3.2 latest snapshot running pi 4.
Another detail for new users setting up by following the instruction, in the openhab install wiki (https://github.com/tobof/openhab-addons/wiki/Installation) here. This line does not work
feature:install openhab-transport-serial and feature:install openhab-core-io-transport-mqtt.
From other comments I found it is overcome by installing the openhab serial and mqtt bindings .

Hi Thanks for the reply!

If I used only nrf24l01 radios, (as I have plenty laying around) if I defined a different channel (and node Id) for the second network. Would this prevent confusion between the two networks rather then using a different radio type (rfm69)?

• @def MY_RF24_CHANNEL
• @brief RF channel for the sensor net, 0-125.
• Frequence: 2400 Mhz - 2525 Mhz Channels: 126
• http://www.mysensors.org/radio/nRF24L01Plus.pdf
• 0 => 2400 Mhz (RF24 channel 1)
• 1 => 2401 Mhz (RF24 channel 2)
• 76 => 2476 Mhz (RF24 channel 77)
• 83 => 2483 Mhz (RF24 channel 84)
• 124 => 2524 Mhz (RF24 channel 125)
• 125 => 2525 Mhz (RF24 channel 126)
• In some countries there might be limitations, in Germany for example only the range 2400,0 - 2483,5 Mhz is allowed

Re: Multiple Gateways

If possible what would be required to se up two separate mysensors gateways?
I want to have two seperate networks

• One using the full security and signing for some security crital equipment.
  -A second to be unsecure for non security critical components allowing quick easy setup of these nodes
  I will use the mqtt gateway or (ethernet gateway if the openhab binding become functional again ) and the nrlf24l01 radios on an arduino

Hi All not sure if this should be under gateway or security sections but just wondering If it is possible to run 2 seperate gateways for mysensors netwok

• a fully secured network with signing required both node and gateway for all nodes required to send and or receive signed data.
  -A second unsecured network for gerneral sensor data and equipment not requiring any security
