Thanks for the comments. I like hearing different people's take on how they'd approach this project. Please keep in mind that what I've presented in this video is just an example. The main concept is the use of the Raspberry Pi with PiFace for inputs and outputs. The rest is really up to you. All of the suggestions made here can certainly be done. I have other parts to this system that I have not presented here, simply because it's my home alarm system and would be a tad silly to share exactly how it works with the public! Remember, don't lose sight of the forest for the trees.

Dang - so you'll be keeping those 433MHz RF codes to yourself then? I would suggest using the fob remote as a backup, and the phone as the main arming / disarming device. It is straight forward enough to listen for those RF codes. Also, what is the current draw on the 12v supply? I'd be concerned that the 12W(?) from the TP-Link splitter isn't enough, especially if the outdoor sounder comes into play. You could have the system brownout when the external sounder goes. Thanks for another great vid!

Hey Dude! I've watched your previous videos and you come up with some pretty neat ideas.. I was wondering when someone was going use a raspberry pi to replace their security system, the way you have done it is pretty slick, and of all the pi security systems I've seen this is by far the best and most well thought out. I'm not sure if you know about konnected ESP8266 based system, if not take a look.. Also Home assistant if you haven't already.. I've been running home assistant for a while, but this is far more superior as a dedicated security system.. Suggestion: add pir inputs to activate outputs when disarmd as this would greatly increase usability in the home automation space.. Great work! If at any time in the future you plan to share the code I know myself and many others would use and build upon what you've done here... Cheers...

Also worth asking - how are you handling the initialization of the PIR sensors in case of a short power failure or at power-up? Would the system just be un-armed at startup? I've been playing around with this idea myself, but I'm trying to think of a smart way to detect when the PIR sensors are in initialization mode. My PIR models blink for up to 1 minute until they get a base reading of the heat field, and I think the only way to sense that is through software.

great work as always! It's quite a nice system! As for the garage waiting period, may the logic be: once the garage door is closing, have any "arm requests"(button/app) "add to queue" until the garage door is closed, clear any previous queue if garage/unarm buttons are pressed, and check if anything is "queued" after the garage door finishes(aka arm system then empty queue). or... some magic with the time module and a global "action queue" with actions getting pushed back if the garage door is in a transition state.

Heya, You have a good start on the system. With a few options it could be a good opensource alarm system. 1. Li-ion cell for the backup, you could also monitor it via the Pi as well, then you know when it's time to replace it. 2. Enable the entry and exit timer. 3. A few years ago I was toying around with an idea of using a wearable RFID for a tracking pendant, so that when the system is armed, and the pet was inside the system would basically ignore the pet. 4. Have the option for different sensors Eg, a Heat sensor in the server room in case of a fire etc. 5. Also a insect option so if a sensor is triggered it would wait for another zone with x seconds to be triggered, otherwise it could be a moth. 6. Support for a door strike as well so that, you can use a button on the remote and disarm and open the front door so that you could get inside quickly if required. Personally I think the extra line of "there is motion somewhere" is redundant, as the previous line stated where the motion was. Otherwise nice setup :)

Great video. I had a similar setup using a PiFace with some Python scripts. Since migrated over to a Konnected board (which is effectively an 8266 board with some custom software). I’m now using node red and home assistant to interface it all. The PIRs now act as motion detection for the alarm and presence detection for rooms to bring on lights and adjust heating requirements. I found with the pi face to sometimes get false triggers, turned out to be electrical noise from adjacent cabling running by the sensor wires, easily filtered out in code, similar to debouncing.
@TallPaulTech4 жыл бұрын
I like your comment, because it has some words I haven't heard for a while and don't usually get in the comments section (ie, debouncing). I've never had a problem at all with false triggers from the motion sensors though. If that was noise, then damn that would have been a hell of a lot of noise. I don't want to automate things though, as I still like being a human and doing things myself :)

You need the app to communicate with the alarm system every few seconds for it to do job but if you can do that then perfect. Really good set up by the way love this. Thanks

I was back in Australia and had issues with my home alarm as well as the battery needing replacing. Decided when I go back home again (was there for leave but work in Seattle), I was going to replace it with a PI as well and use 18650's for battery backup. Interesting PI hat you got. I was thinking to use I2C or SPI to control devices. You could make it arm once the door is shut, just need to somehow tell it to close and arm.

@Real_Tim_S5 жыл бұрын
One of the important benefits of remote monitoring that you overlooked, is that if you're attacked and hit a panic button - who then monitors your alarm to call the police? About your system's layout it almost would be better to feed your IO into a pub-sub backend (Redis, MQTT, etc.), then apply your security code as a stand-alone subsystem. By splitting the IO from the security code, it allows existing sensors to be used for home automation as well (simply subscribe to the sensor's feed). Your simple IO also missed a chance for senor tamper detection and wiring fault detection, this may lead to false alarms down the road. I do also have to wonder why you put in that unsecure Chinese junk RF set, when you already have a TLS capable wifi display module in your pocket...

@eliotmansfield5 жыл бұрын
You should consider full home automation, I use homeseer. You can write events to do anything. For example I never have to manually set the alarm because the automation runs a timer when there's been no internal movement after a period of time plus vocally prompting anyone who may be inside to move around. Now once you automation knows nobody is home has set the alarm, it can look for other things susch as water flowing when unoccupied or gas flowing when no heating is on and turn on bright flood lights if external motion is sensed.

If someone disables the alarm, then it's no worse than without an alarm at all. Maybe the garage door button, but I do have other things in place which I haven't mentioned ;) Also, once I get the phone app up and running, I can use that with encrypted VPN to home and not have to use the button generally. Well thought of though.

Hi, What if I have more than 8 inputs? (ie. Door and window sensors, movement sensors, smoke sensor...) - PiFace has only 8 input and 8 outputs. What could I do? Also... could you share some more code? - Arm/disarm part, processing part and notification part? Many thanks Rudolf

Why would you do this? a Pi is way to unstable for a security system. You can install a system that has this + way more like the ELK M1. In Australia I am a Security Tech and have my home fully automated with lighting + AV + retic + would wide access with the M1 gold, and bitwize, Cbus, and Alexa, full voice control .

@@TallPaulTech the end of line resistor allows the panel ohm meter to monitor the wiring for open or short circuits. A potential burglar can short the wire for a zone and enter at a later time. If a wire was compromised by a nail for example, that zone would not function correctly. Its how you value the potential risk. EOL resistors are VERY important if you are monitoring for smoke/fire. A fire in a wall or roof could burn and disable the wire that is doing the monitoring and then you'll never know about the fire.

How do you protect your raspberry pi's from SD card corruption , you use them so much , and no issues with that , I use raspiries quite often and i always get some segmentation faults , and other crap that indicate SD card corruption , tried to go through setting the system into RO mode , to no avail because i missed some steps maybe , if you be so kind to enlighten me and the rest of the community with your countermeasures thanks

I honestly haven't really had much of a problem with that. Basically, I always leave them running. If I have to turn them off, I shut them down. Seems to work.

@@TallPaulTech yeah, but in case of power cut, or something, or the RPI froze and you need a terminal nothing happens on hdmi plug in etc, and then you pull the plug, segmentation fault, is very typical in remote solar applications either the converter is not power full enough or some other issue, if any solution comes to mind to set the os partition into Read only and be able to chnage it from RO TO RW I would be grateful

AL6S00740 , there are solutions in the market already that give UPS like functions to any RPi model. Just search “ RPi UPS” or just saw one called Pijuice. I’ve never tried one myself. I’m using big powerbanks for my “on the go” projects.

Those remotes are really insecure and probably not very reliable. Consider using something with KeeLoq or similar technology, it is slightly more expensive but at least can't be hacked that easy.

@@xabhax I'm talking from my own experience only. I know two cases of robbery by abusing alarm system. I mean I personally know both victims, both cases are not connected and could have been easily prevented by not using cheap crap. In fact, they'd be better by not using any alarm at all. I doubt those who robbed them even know what SDR is. If you know about SDR - usually you can find better things to do with your life.
