I am thinking about creating a custom circuit that piggy backs the ZRF113 from ACT in order to create a remote controlled garage door opener. From what I understand, garage door activation buttons are mostly momentary and some people get around this by sending On->Off sequences. This works sometimes and only some applications but I was thinking of creating a circuit that would generate a pulse when ever the ZRF113 switched to On and another pulse when it switched off. That way, you can have an ON event always open the garage door and OFF to close it.
How much would one pay for a circuit like this with instructions to open up the ZRF113 and solder a few wires? (I was thinking around $20).
As background information, I opened up my ZTW103 and created a custom circuit so that when you press and HOLD the off button for more than 2 seconds, it would reset the z-wave controller inside. I found out that these switches probably have some software bug inside and after weeks of using it, it no longer responds or transmits z-wave and with this little circuit, I just have to reset the switch and i'm all good without needing to power cycle the mains.
Anyways, let me know what the interest is.
