AlarmReceiver() — Provides support for receiving alarm reports from a burglar or fire alarm panel
Emulates an alarm receiver, and allows Asterisk to receive and decode special data from fire and/or burglar alarm panels. At this time, only the Ademco Contact ID format is supported.
When called, AlarmReceiver()
will handshake with the alarm panel, receive events, validate them,
handshake them, and store them until the panel hangs up. Once the panel
hangs up, the application will run the command line specified by the
eventcmd
setting in
alarmreceiver.conf and pipe the events to the
standard input of the application.
alarmreceiver.conf also contains settings for DTMF
timing and for the loudness of the acknowledgment tones.
