Aux Channels

Aux Channels

Aux.applescript

Aux channels serve to communicate beween the automation and the burglar alarm systems. The burglar alarm is capable of triggering about 20 automations with events. The burglar alarm central can interpret 15 auxiliary channels. Most installers do not know that they are 6 additional ausiliary channels to use for free, they are recognized by the firmware but most of the software ignores the extra sic channels. I am puzzled why they will have such a discrepancy.

Table of configurations to use for Aux=10 to Aux=15

10=OFF
11=SLA
12=GEN=||M
13=GR
14=AMB=CEN
15=PUL=AUX

In the direction from the burglar alarm system to the automation system, the AUX channels are comonly used to trigger e-mail in the web server. The web server responds only to changes in the first 9 AUX channels.

In the spirit of maximizing the use and the benefits of an existing MyHome installation, I am disclosing six additional auxiliary channels that are not "OFFICIALLY VALIDATED BY BT" in spite of being compatible with the existing hardware , and not the software.

The six "HIDDEN AUX" are implemented using the BLUE configurators for the number as shown in table below:
