This project is a Homebridge plugin that allows you to control your Paradox alarm system with the iOS 10 Home app as well as through Siri. This project uses the Paradox IP150-MQTTv2 monitor made by @TertiusH. To use this, you must have a working Homebridge server running in your network. The Raspberry Pi is ideal for this.
[update] Check out the work @e-mcgee has done to consolidate the code from IP150-MQTTv2 directly into a node.js homebridge plugin [Paradox_Platform] (https://github.com/e-mcgee/paradox_platform). This is the right approach in my view and is working well.
- Usage of this plugin requires a Paradox Alarm Panel, the [Paradox IP150 Module] (https://www.paradox.com/Products/default.asp?PID=404), an MQTT Broker [Mosquitto] (https://mosquitto.org) as well as the [Paradox IP150-MQTTv2 Monitor] (https://github.com/Tertiush/ParadoxIP150v2).
npm install -g homebridge-paradox-security-system
