Envisalink installationEnvisalink is an addon board from http://www.eyezon.com that enables DSC alarm systems to communicate via IP network. The tutorial focuses on configuring it to work with Openhab.  Install Envisalink according to the installation manual from the manufacturer: https://www.eyez-on.com/EZMAIN/Images/envisalink3/Envisalink3QuickStartEyezOn.pdf Note that the DCS 585 is an old alarm system that does not have the "RED" and "BLK" connectors. In this case the connection is done to "+AUX" and "-AUX" like this RED=+AUX BLK=-AUX YEL=YEL GRN=GRN   Envisalink installed in the DSC housing.  After installation go to the Envisalink webpage and see if its working. Keypad and its LEDs should be in the same status as the zones in the web page. Next you can move on to Openhab configuration. Openhab ConfigurationStart by installing the Openhab DSC alarm binding and following its well documented Configuration guide: https://github.com/openhab/openhab/wiki/DSC-Alarm-Binding What I configured was a very simple sitemap with the panel info and zones including Door sensors and motion detectors with status (excuse the Finnish in the screenshots). |
