[ENHANCEMENT]: Anti-Theft request

[WP-Rue]

Is their a possibility to generate some kind of watchdog to pevent theft? Some kind of signal in node-red to switch lamps, horns or send emails would be good. In Germany are reports about stealing of heatpumps... ..and it could be easy with node-red to check the connection to the panasonic heatpump...

Greetings Rue (actual first heating hours with 23.09)

Hi Rue,

I whipped up something for you to use for this. Import the code in the post below.

Instruction:

The heishamon sends a signal 'Online' every 5/10 seconds. Or 'Offline' if the pump is offline. The 'Offline' command is used to start a timer. The timer is reset again if a 'Online' message is coming in again.

The timer is currently set to 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, the output of the node is string text 'ALARM'.

You can use this as trigger elsewhere in node red. Hopefully you will never actually have needed this.

Regards

Wonderful- I reduce time to 1 min and will give it a try.. At first Signal goes to simple LED on display in kitchen and email- to check, if there are false alarms. If ok, I plan to switch on lamps outside and maybe send the alarm signal to the Philipps hue system (red flashing).. But I think the alarm has to switch of during reboot Heishamon..!?

Yes - hopefully I never need this.

I think 1 minute is a little optimistic :) But you just have to see if you end up with a disco or not ghehehe :) Adjust where needed ofcourse

[edterbak]

You can close the issue if the solution is okay

[WP-Rue]

Up to now no false alarm- with 1min! Thanks!
