# DSC Alarm Binding
The DSC PowerSeries Alarm System is a popular do-it-yourself home security system, which can be monitored and controlled remotely through a standard web-browser or mobile device.
This is the binding for the DSC PowerSeries Alarm System, utilizing either the EyezOn Envisalink 4/3/2DS interface or the DSC IT-100 RS-232 interface. It provides connectivity to the DSC Alarm panel via a TCP socket connection to the EyesOn Envisalink 4/3/2DS interface or a RS-232 serial connection to the DSC IT-100 interface. Additionally, their is provision to connect to the DSC IT-100 interface through a TCP serial server.
# Supported Things
This binding supports the following Thing types
Thing | Thing Type | Description |
---|---|---|
envisalink | Bridge | The EyezOn Envisalink 3/2DS interface. |
it100 | Bridge | The DSC IT-100 RS-232 interface. |
tcpserver | Bridge | The DSC IT-100 TCP Server network interface. |
panel | Thing | The basic representation of the DSC Alarm System. |
partition | Thing | Represents a controllable area within a DSC Alarm system. |
zone | Thing | Represents a physical device such as a door, window, or motion sensor. |
keypad | Thing | Represents the central administrative unit. |
# Binding Configuration
There are essentially no overall binding configuration settings that need to be set. Most settings are through thing configuration parameters.
# Discovery
The DSC Alarm binding incorporates a discovery modes in order to find DSC Alarm systems. There is the Envisalink bridge discovery mode which performs a network query for any Envisalink adapters and adds them to the discovery inbox. This bridge discovery mode is started manually through the UI. After a bridge is discovered and available to openHAB, the binding will attempt to discover DSC Alarm things and add them to the discovery inbox. The TCP Server bridge does not implement bridge discovery but will utilize thing discovery once it is online.
Note: The Envisalink Bridge discovery does a TCP scan across your local network to find the interface. This may create issues on the network so it is suggested that caution be used when trying this discovery. The recommended method would be to manually add and configure the bridge through the 'dscalarm.thing' file or the UI. And then allow the binding to discover the DSC Alarm things.
# Thing Configuration
DSC Alarm things can be configured either through the online configuration utility via discovery, or manually through the 'dscalarm.things' configuration file. The following table shows the available configuration parameters for each thing.
Thing | Configuration Parameters | |||||
envisalink |
| |||||
it100 |
| |||||
tcpserver |
| |||||
panel |
| |||||
partition | partitionNumber - Partition number (1-8) - Required. | |||||
zone |
| |||||
keypad | No parameters |
The binding can be configured manually if discovery is not used. A thing configuration file in the format 'bindingName.things' would need to be created, and placed in the 'conf/things' folder. Here is an example of a thing configuration file called 'dscalarm.things':
Bridge dscalarm:envisalink:MyBridgeName [ ipAddress="192.168.0.100" ] {
Thing panel panel
Thing partition partition1 [ partitionNumber=1 ]
Thing zone zone1 [ partitionNumber=1, zoneNumber=1 ]
Thing zone zone9 [ partitionNumber=1, zoneNumber=9 ]
Thing zone zone10 [ partitionNumber=1, zoneNumber=10 ]
Thing zone zone11 [ partitionNumber=1, zoneNumber=11 ]
Thing zone zone12 [ partitionNumber=1, zoneNumber=12 ]
Thing zone zone13 [ partitionNumber=1, zoneNumber=13 ]
Thing zone zone14 [ partitionNumber=1, zoneNumber=14 ]
Thing zone zone15 [ partitionNumber=1, zoneNumber=15 ]
Thing zone zone21 [ partitionNumber=1, zoneNumber=21 ]
Thing zone zone22 [ partitionNumber=1, zoneNumber=22 ]
Thing zone zone23 [ partitionNumber=1, zoneNumber=23 ]
Thing zone zone24 [ partitionNumber=1, zoneNumber=24 ]
Thing zone zone25 [ partitionNumber=1, zoneNumber=25 ]
Thing keypad keypad
}

Sample Rules for Sending a DSC Alarm Command
rule "SendKeystrokeStringCommand"
when
Item SwitchItemName received command ON
then
SEND_DSC_ALARM_COMMAND.sendCommand("071,1*101#")
end
rule "SendPollingCommand"
when
Item SwitchItemName received command ON
then
SEND_DSC_ALARM_COMMAND.sendCommand("000")
end
Notice the command variations in the examples. If a command has data, there needs to be a comma between the command and the data as seen above in the first example. If there is no data then it would only require the command itself as in the second example.
