Idea how to monitor people at home

[Guest Roman]

127.0.0.1 - is IP address of your Fibaro HC2. You don't need to change it because this is internal IP. It's always 127.0.0.1

 

You just need to change variable with MAC address of device, which you want to find in home network.

For example this is MAC address of your mobile phone.
So this script will be able to scan your net and try to find your phone.
Result will be saved to global variable. And this variable could be used in different scenes.

[Guest Roman]

Could you try to change lower case your this address:

 

00:24:01:CB:D6:02

to

00:24:01:cb:d6:02

this will change status when the arp discovery is reset i think so you will get false readings of false even though you are still connected?

Yep that's it. Thanks man.

Sure! It works with iPhones, we have two and no problem! So I run a script every minute to check if the phones are home or not. It updates a database and also runs a scene in HCL. In the database I store the bluetooth mac addresses of the phones and their static ip addresses. I set it up in my router so that the phones get the same ip address every time. With this I just add another line in the database and I can check 3 phones, and so on.

 

I am using a file to store if someone was home, so I won't update the HCL every minute, just when a change happens.

 

 

Here is the script, but please forgive me for any coding nonsense as I have very-very little knowledge about how to code. However this works
