Cinegration Posted May 4, 2017 Author Share Posted May 4, 2017 Yeah, we wrote it for a job we had 25 waters sensors. What a PITA to do all the emails correctly! This allowed our guys to setup battery notifications very very quickly. Thanks! msgreenf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggzlot Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 brilliant! 3 years in and I am still not sure my Kwikset notifications are set up properly. Next time I contact my dealer I'll look to install this as I have Kwikset, SR 250s and both Card Access and NYCE sensors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuddyC Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I'm giving this driver a try - sounds great! Yes, if you could add Axxess, that would be great. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a reason Axxess is missing? I mean the driver sounds great, but I'm not sure I want to spend the money unless its comprehensive. Is other support on the roadmap? Thanks.

VINCELdUB Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Axxess would be a great addition. I will get the showroom license and test. I will report back this week. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILoveControl Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Just a question - when installed it picks up all my remotes in device selection but no other devices... you suppose to select something specific? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinegration Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 What devices do you have that use batteries? I thought we captured all of them but may have missed some of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought we captured all of them but may have missed some of them. In my project: Obviously remotes. 1. Card Access relay (with Temp) 2. Axxess - Motion / humidity sensor 3. Axxess - Door Bell Thats all I can think for now - its just finding the Remotes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinegration Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 Try this version. So, Control4 decided to change the c4z file name of the card access devices (from cardacess_ to control4_). I've updated this and added in Axxess. Let me know. Change log (has not been posted to houselogix server btw) Version 1003 (5.2017) Added support for escaped characters in the name Added extra verification of 0 or nil value variable returns. Example: yale Doorlock initially transmits 0 level. Driver will now wait 5 minutes then ask again. If it’s still 0, driver will notify user of low battery state Added support for these devices axxess_contactsensor.c4i axxess_motionsensor_MS-C4ZB-11.c4i axxess_doorbell_DB-C4ZB-11.c4i cardaccess_sensorbridge_ZGB20.c4i contact_cabridge_water.c4i contact_cabridge_micro_dws.c4i control4_wirelesscontact.c4i Thanks! battery_agent.c4z msgreenf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinegration Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 Note: Card access/Control4 wireless relay devices are line powered only. the contact sensor is battery powered. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddyC Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Quick question - we updated to this latest version above (1003) as I have 3 axxess motion sensors in the project but we still don't see them in the selection list. The driver name in my project is "axxess_motionsensor.c4i" and not the one listed above. Is that the problem? I'll ask my dealer but thought you could answer it here pretty quickly.
