if i use the direct connection to the pannel all works ok.
I have placed the goo.gl/m3GB3M file on my local webserver and this works.
Having it on the sd card is prably the best option no neet for a internetconnection on a local lan.

Alterd the brouser with some color, i like some help with te folowing line.
"<tr><td><button>*</button></td><td><button>0</button></td><td><button>#</button></td></tr>"

this produces a * 0 # buttons and i like to rename the * # to arrows like so <button>&#8593</button>
But the broblem is now &#8593 is sent and not * does some one know how to alter the name of this button but not its value ?.

@Ozmo, nice project, thanks.
I have all the components, fingers crossed.

How did you get on? I have a cs350 and waiting on the arduino. I'm just curious if the system still works considering that this project was first started 7 years ago.

I've found this whole thread to be a great read from start to finish and I'm looking forward to joining the club as such.

@Ozmo,

exuse my poor English i'm Dutch.

The project is stil working great until i tried to use a cd95 pannel.
The keypad is not found some were in te forum this it posible a timing problem due to the fact there is space for more remote's.
I have tried version 3 and the latest version no luck.
What did work is proramming it on a already attached remote 0 and if i leave the trasmission disconnected, it displays remote 0.
So it receives ok, it's in the transmission.

Is there some one that got it to work on the lager pannels???.
And can you pont me in a direction to solve the timing problem.

I hope there is stil some activity here it's a gread addition to my alarm.

greetings jasper

Thanks for the update - well done on the UI changes too - I have most the panels - but unfortunately CD95 is one Aritech alarm panel I don't have one to test -
I think you could be correct in it being a timing issue - Possibly that panel supports so many remote devices by reducing again the amount of time a remote gets to respond.
If I can think of anything to try Ill post here - possibly if I ever get back to completing my Esp32 version of this project that might give some extra speed... but without a panel to test cannot be sure...

Great to hear you are still active.

Is there a cance if you stip the log option and the smtp option this can speedup the board.

If you have some code to test i will be happy to, may be a stripped version yust to see if the a keypad is recognised.
unfortunately my coding in arduino is not that good, i have some experience with microchip in proton.

hope to hear from you again

greetings jasper

Hi - I uploaded two versions to github if anyone would like to test...

1. Latest version for Arduino UNO
- it works well with latest Chrome Browser, Edge etc,
- Has support for using keyboard when on a pc.
- Some small fixes
- By default Email is Off - since Arduino cannot communicate with modern SMTP servers anymore since they all went SSL.

https://github.com/OzmoOzmo/CastleAritechArduinoRKP


2. A rewritten one using using an ESP32 Board (a more powerful, but cheaper, version of the Arduino)
This version supports

• Sending Emails via Gmail servers!
• WiFi (not ethernet - no ethernet shield needed)
• Better diagnostics
• LCD Display

https://github.com/OzmoOzmo/CastleAritechArduinoESP32

For the ESP32 version - I tested on a "D1 R32" which looks exactly like a Arduino UNO - and a Wemos Lolin32 which is an ESP32 with built in LCD display.
I am still testing on all the panels I have - but all seems ok so far. Let me know if you anyone tries it and has any difficulty with it.

Hi - Latest update to the ESP32 version is it now connects to Amazons Alexa...

As a demo I have it configured that if you ask "Alexa, Home Security ON" it will Arm the Aritech panel....


Open to suggestions on how best to integrate Alexa - What would it be useful to be able to ask it to do?



All the code, and circuit is in Git hub.
