Doorman

This project contains C++ code to handle portable chimes branded "doorman" on Raspberry Pi devices. We can only test this project on our doorman WFDC841 receiver and doorman 46011SL transmitter.

NPM

This project is published as NPM package.

Requirements

The NPM package requires at least Node 4 LTS. It also requires wiringPi to be installed on your Raspberry Pi.

Installation

npm install -g doorman-chime

Usage

doorman-chime --help

C++

Running make will build three binaries:

bin/parser-test

This is merely a test binary where you can input bits of a signal yourself and test the behaviour of the parser. You'll probably not need this.

bin/doorman

This binary allows for reading and writing doorman signals. You'll need sudo when running this.

bin/doorman <pin> write <channel: 1-16> <sound: 1-3>

Writes the signal to play the given sound on the given channel over the given GPIO pin.

bin/doorman <pin> read [file]
bin/doorman <pin> read-human [file]

Reads the signal over the given GPIO pin. If a file is given, it writes the data to that file, otherwise it outputs to standard out. Command read will output the raw data, read-human will try to find the doorman signals.
The program will listen for a couple of seconds before outputting the signals.

bin/listen

This binary allows for continuous listening for signals on a pin. You'll need sudo when running this.

bin/listen <pin>

Listens for signals on the given GPIO pin, outputs a single line with the significant bits of the signal (see PROTOCOL.md) per signal received. Note that doorman transmitters tend to send their signal more than once.
