Reed switch on/off WiFi
Last updated
Last updated
Reed on/off WiFi is similar to the original mode as it sends a message when the reed contact is switched on by a magnet and also sends one when the sensor is switched off as no magnetic field is detected anymore. All mode-specific events are sent with 3 MAC addresses for better localisation precision.

Here’s what’s important for Reed on/off WiFi messages:
To set this mode, the downlink needs to include this mode register setting: 0119
The uplink messages need to begin with the mode hex as the first byte: 19
When arming the device, you should see this message: 1910
When the device is armed, it should send you these two bytes: 1911
If you disarm the device via long press, you should receive this message: 1914
