I built these, well, just because…
Includes configurable parameters for reporting and external switch type.
Built in hardware flasher is implemented (three preconfigured modes), can be called via custom command or used via standard alarm capability.
Indicator status is ditched as it’s not implemented in the micros. @wackware 's better dimmer stuff included.
And a smart app to use to flash a series of these together, tell the kids its dinner time, alert gramps, whatever…
Be nice, these are only the second and third devices I’ve written…
I’m going to use the blink modes to give a warning a minute before the lights turn off because of lack of motion. That way, If I’m lying on the couch, or working around the corner in my basement, I’ll know I have to wave my arms at the motion detectors or something.
A big industrial building automation system I work with has a similar feature they call “flick warn”. Great to prevent getting plunged into darkness.
Mike’s ST device handlers are no longer available.
I have the code for the micro switch and I don’t mind sharing with you, but only if it’s cool with him.
Alternatively, you can just use the ST device handlers for these devices, and if you need to change parameters that the default handlers don’t expose, check out z-wave tweaker.
