+--- Thread: DM01 and Doorbell response (/thread-993.html)
- Warby - 03-26-2008
I am trying to get a Output to pulse when the Doorbell is pressed (DM01 and Fermax unit) i have tied the response to Misc. Events-Doorbell response. is this correct as it doesnt seem to be working!!
Thanks

Thats correct
It should work
See the comms in Monitor I/O and watch for the DB and OP messages
Also test with a test lamp on the output

Ihave tried it using the monitor and it is say\'s
Rx: <STX>OP1301<CR>
Rx: <STX>OP1300<CR>
The response is
Output Output019 On
Do DoorBell_Off [Set Doorbell_Camera output Off] After 10 Seconds Using DoorBellCamera
And doorbell_Off is:
Output Output019 Off
It is the third output on the 1st slave board (all jumpers In for address) Firmware is 5.121

Of course the Monitor is in Hex hence 13. will have to keep trying!

You can see that Comfort is pulsing the outputs or at least trying to
The possibilities are that what is connected to the outputs is not turning on, or the outputs may be damaged in some way
The Monitor I/O is a useful tool in these situations

It is very helpful. is there any documention on what the codes are. some are obvious but others not so?
- admin - 03-27-2008
The codes are documented in the Serial protocol document in the website
www.cytech.biz/techinfo.html
Scrolll down and look forr \"Serial Command Set\"

Pulse Output019 For 20
This pulses the Output for 1 second (units of 50 ms)
It saves you a timer!
