Honeywell 5800 series (345 MHz)

Devices not yet supported
1

I would like to be involved in any way possible to help bring the Honeywell 5800 series door/window sensors to the supported decoders list.

I have a handful of 5800MINI door/window sensors which I’m currently receiving data from using merbanan/rtl_433 and SDR dongle. They are rtl_433’s device [70] Honeywell Door/Window Sensor, 2Gig DW10/DW11, RE208 repeater. From what I can see, the 5800MINI’s modulation is OOK_PULSE_MANCHESTER_ZEROBIT, which looks to be one of OMG’s supported device decoders.

With my LilyGo LORA32 (433/470MHz), and dev version c12f51 of lilygo-rtl_433, I’m able to successfully change frequency to 345 MHz, and do receive data from other sensors in my neighborhood (protocol: "Interlogix GE UTC Security Devices") but not from my 5800MINI.

Please let me know if I can test and provide any other information! Thanks to this community. I’m new here and excited to be a part of it.

I’m currently working thru refreshing the rtl_433_ESP decoders, and this is one of them. It should be released in a few weeks.

Great! I was hopeful when I saw that decoder listed in your repo! Thanks and please let me know if there’s any testing I can do.

Any update on this? I’ve got a Heltec v2.1 433Mhz Lora device I just flashed w/ OMG. I’d love to use it to monitor a Honeywell 5800 series device that’s just a little too far from my RTL_SDR dongle to be reliable. I’m also happy to help with testing.

+1, same situation here

Not too sure which of the above mentioned devices you also have, but if its decoder is listed on the rtl_433_ESP page

it should work with the current development version of OpenMQTTGateway

Awesome, thanks for the quick reply! I tried flashing my LilyGo Lora32 433 with the lilygo-rtl_433 image (version f27855) from your second link so i’m pretty sure i have your latest, but I’m still not seeing any signs of my sensors via mqtt explorer (i’ve also got logging on verbose/level 6 and am monitoring the console).

I’ve got a bunch of honeywell door/window sensors as well as a couple motion sensors. Using an rtl_sdr dongle attached to my PC i’m able to decode them reliably with rtl_433’s protocol “[70] Honeywell Door/Window Sensor, 2Gig DW10/DW11, RE208 repeater”. This appears to be the same as protcol 69 for rtl_433_ESP as listed at your first link?

I saw the message about the rtl_433_ESP version having 1/2 the range of an rtl_sdr device, but one of my sensors is within a couple feet of the LilyGo device in the same room so I doubt range is a factor here.

I’m pretty brand new to rtl_433 and all so I could be missing something super obvious…

Did you also change with the frequency to 345.0 Mhz in the WebUI or through an MQTT command, as mentioned above?

I did. I’ve tried both 345Mhz and 344.975 Mhz as I’ve seen others report success with the latter number (and it works for me with my rtl_sdr): Honeywell 5800 series 345Mhz door and window sensor integration with HA - Share your Projects! - Home Assistant Community

It seems to be successfully tuning to the radio:

N: RF Receive mhz: 344.98
N: Enable RTL_433 Receiver: 344.98Mhz
N: RF Config_save: {“frequency”:344.975,“active”:3}, result: 32
N: Send on /RFtoMQTT msg {“active”:3,“frequency”:344.975,“rssithreshold”:-87,“rssi”:-105,“avgrssi”:-96,“count”:24,“ookthreshold”:15}

Is there any way to get a sense of whether the radio is “hearing” anything? That count value seems like maybe it indicates there’s some activity?

This is what I’m seeing via MQTT Explorer FWIW, not sure if there’s anywhere else I can monitor besides this and the console to get a better sense of things:

(I’ve also tried the antenna that came with the LilyGo as well as a longer antenna that I successfully used with my rtl_sdr)

any luck getting this to work on the Lilygo LORA32? I’ve tried some custom compiles and no luck.
