Title: Help home alarm system
Post by: ramdisk on July 31, 2016, 10:15:18 PM

Hi everyone, a question coming from a newbie. I'm looking into setting up a home alarm system and a Home Automation using Raspberry PI.
Presently I’m use Wink with zwave digital switches. When a door opens I get a text which I love and would like to use. Also would like to get a sound bit over some type of speaker to say what door has been open or closes. Example “Front door open” “Front door closed”. Can anyone give me or point to what I might want to program/use. Any help appreciated

Hi,
You can try to take a look at the configuration of alarm system in homegenie here :

And in second, take a look in the code in this program.

But if your target is to use only speaker, there is already a program which use "squeezebox" system here :
