NetworX NX584/NX8E Interface Library and Server

This is a tool to let you interact with your NetworX alarm panel via the NX584 module (which is built into NX8E panels). You must enable it in the configuration and enable the operations you want to be able to do before this will work.

Install Locally

# pip install pynx584

The server must be run on a machine with connectivity to the panel, which can be a local serial port, or a Serial-over-LAN device (i.e. a TCP socket). For example:

# nx584_server --serial /dev/ttyS0 --baud 38400

or:

# nx584_server --connect 192.168.1.101:23

Once that is running, you should be able to do something like this:

$ nx584_client summary
+------+-----------------+--------+--------+
| Zone |       Name      | Bypass | Status |
+------+-----------------+--------+--------+
|  1   |    FRONT DOOR   |   -    | False  |
|  2   |   GARAGE DOOR   |   -    | False  |
|  3   |     SLIDING     |   -    | False  |
|  4   | MOTION DETECTOR |   -    | False  |
+------+-----------------+--------+--------+
Partition 1 armed

# Arm for stay with auto-bypass
$ nx584_client arm-stay

# Arm for exit (requires tripping an entry zone)
$ nx584_client arm-exit

# Auto-arm (no bypass, no entry zone trip required)
$ nx584_client arm-auto

# Disarm
$ nx584_client disarm --master 1234

Install via Docker Compose

Before creating the Docker container, you need to define how you connect to the panel (local serial port, or a Serial-over-LAN device (i.e. a TCP socket)) in the docker-compose.yml file. Uncomment and edit the environment section to fit your needs:

version: "3.2"

services:
  pynx584:
    container_name: pynx584
    image: kk7ds/pynx584
    build:
      context: .docker
      dockerfile: Dockerfile
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - 5007:5007
    environment:
      # Uncomment these as needed, depending on how you connect to the panel (via Serial or TCP Socket)
      # - SERIAL=/dev/ttyS0
      # - BAUD=38400
      # - CONNECT=192.168.1.101:23

To build the image, create the Docker container and then run it, make sure you're at the root of the checked out repo and run:

# docker-compose up -d

You should now be able to conect to the pynx584 Docker container via its exposed port (default 5007).

Config

The config.ini should be generated once the controller reports the first zone name. However, here is a full config.ini if you want to pre-populate it with zone names:

[config]
# max_zone is the highest numbered zone you have populated
max_zone = 5

# Set to true if your unit sends DD/MM dates instead of MM/DD
euro_date_format = False

[email]
fromaddr = [email protected]
smtphost = imap.foo.com

[zones]
# Zone names
1 = Front Door
2 = Garage Entry
3 = Garage Side
4 = Garage Back
5 = Kitchen
