I’m finally trying to brush the dust of this plugin again. I’ll try to get a build put togeather for the pogoplug sometime soon. A new version 0.1.14 was just released by mmauka (mochad dev) on Jan 15 with support for the ds12a, which is good news because it means it is still being developed. If the plugin needed a change it would be trivial. If not, it should be possible to modify mochad (the daemon) so that it does. It sounds like it is using the same RF protocol and I would expect that it works fine as is.

Q: Does it work with my old security console?Ī: Absolutely! The SMART Motion Detector works with both the new SecuriLINK Console and Protector Plus Console (PS561). Plus, it has a tamper-resistant feature that triggers the alarm system when the Sensor is tampered with! I don’t have any MS18A sensors, and have no personal knowledge of them, but from the X10 wiki ( ): Q: What makes the SMART Motion Detector (MS18A) different than the original Motion Detector (MS10A)?Ī: The new SMART Motion Detector has a rounder, more modern design. It looks like the cm15a controllers are sold out too. I am happy to provide further direction if you have questions about specific glad my plugin was useful to you! Sadly it isn’t just the MS10A sensors that are drying up. This is a bit tricker to set up, but if you already an extra router or a NAS you leave on all the time it might be an OK option. It is also possible to run mochad on a router with a usb port that can run openwrt and a few different NAS devices with usb. You would also need a usb flash drive to put linux on if you go the PogoPlug route.
Right now the best price I can find online is about $50 but you can sometimes find them as cheap as $30 or $35. That way I don’t have to have one of my desktop computers on all the time.
This is a small embedded linux computer that only uses about 5w of power. However, this still does not provide any way to communicate with Vera. I have never used it but I have heard it isn’t particularly useful.
The cm15a controller from x10 has a limited ability to run macros without a computer, but that only works if you use Activehome Pro to program it. You have to keep your computer on all the time.
