# NX-595E UltraSync Hub

Compatible with both NX-595E [Hills](https://www.hills.com.au/) ComNav, xGen, xGen8 (such as [NXG-8-Z-BO](https://firesecurityproducts.com/en/product/intrusion/NXG_8_Z_BO/82651)), [Interlogix](https://www.interlogix.com/), and [ZeroWire](https://www.interlogix.com/intrusion/product/ultrasync-selfcontained-hub) UltraSync solutions.

## How Does It Work?

1. First you need to install it; this part is easy:

   ```bash
   # Install ultrasync onto your system
   pip install ultrasync
   ```

2. Create a configuration file that identifies:
   1. The hostname or IP address of the ComNav/ZeroWire hub you've got setup on some the network.
   1. Your ComNav/ZeroWire login User ID.
   1. Your ComNav/ZeroWire login pin.

   **Note**: You can only be logged into the ComNav/ZeroWire hub with the same user *once*; a subsequent login with the same user logs out the other. Since this tool/software actively polls and maintains a login session to your Hub, it can prevent you from being able to log into at the same time elsewhere (via it's website).  **It is strongly recommended that you create a second user account on your Hub dedicated to just this service.**

   ```yaml
   # An example of what would be found in your configuration file:
   # Use hashtags/pound symbols (#) to optionally add comments
   # Syntax is simply <key>: <value>
   #
   # You must specify a ip/hostname, user, and pin
   #
   host: 192.168.0.30
   user: My Username
   pin: 1234
   ```

3. Use the **--scene** (**-s**) to set your security system's alarm scene.  The possible options are: `disarm`, `away`, and `stay`.

   ```bash
   # By default if no --config= (-c) is specified, one will be automatically
   # loaded from the following location (if present):
   #  ~/.ultrasync
   #  ~/.config/ultrasync

   # Windows users can store their default configuration files here:
   #  %APPDATA%/UltraSync/config
   #  %LOCALAPPDATA%/UltraSync/config

   # Disarm your security system
   ultrasync --scene disarm

   # Arm your security system and activate all of your sensors when setting the
   # away mode macro
   ultrasync --scene away

   # Arm your security system and only activate your perimeter sensors:
   ultrasync --scene stay
   ```

## What Else Can It Do?

- You can put up a live monitor of your device by typing the following:

  ```bash
  # A live monitoring of your home security system:
  ultrasync --watch
  ```
![UltraSync Watch Mode](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/caronc/ultrasync/master/static/ultrasync-watch.gif)

- You can generate a snapshot (in JSON format) that greatly details everything taking place through your security home setup. It provides MUCH greater detail than the `--watch` which allows it to also be integrated with [Home Assistant](https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/ultrasync/).

  ```bash
  # Print a JSON formatted snapshot of all home security details
  ultrasync --details
  ```

- You can perform a dump of all of the web based files (*that I've found to be useful so far*) to disk.  This makes troubleshooting much easier.

  ```bash
  # Extracts information from your UltraSync Hub that can be
  # incredibly useful in debugging and/or adding enhancements
  # later on:
  ultrasync --debug-dump
  ```

  The debug content gets written to a zip file (residing in the same folder you ran this command from) in the form of: `YYYYmmddHHMMSS.ultrasync-dump.zip`.

## Reverse Proxy

If you've exposed your panel to the internet, you can access it by setting your `host` to the full URL to it (instead of just the hosthame/ip).  For example:

```yaml
# A sample UltraSync configuration that requires you to pass through
# a proxy in order to get to your destination:
host: https://your.security.panel/
user: My Username
pin: 1234
```

If you've also protected your panel behind an additional user/pass combo using *Basic Auth* at the reverse proxy level, you can pass through it like so:

```yaml
# A sample ultrasync configuration that requires you to pass through
# a proxy expecting authentication in order to get to your destination:
host: https://user:pass@your.security.panel/
user: My Username
pin: 1234
# You can also optionally turn off the secure hostname verification
# by using the verify switch.  But default this is set to yes if not
# specified:
verify: no
```

## Global Variables

You can also (optionally) set the following global variables to provide the equivalent of what the configuration file could have.  If a configuration file is also loaded, it's settings will always prevail.  If an entry is missing, then the environment variable is used instead (if it's defined):

| Global Variable | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **ULTRASYNC_PIN** | Provides the `pin` variable to the library
| **ULTRASYNC_USER** | Provides the `user` variable to the library
| **ULTRASYNC_HOST** | Provides the `host` variable to the library
| **ULTRASYNC_SSL_VERIFY** | Provides the `verify` variable to the library

## Disclaimer

This software was created by reverse engineering my own personal security system. All of this code was generated through trial and error since there is no documentation that I could find that explains the registers. If you can help out by filling in some of the blanks throughout the code base, I would be greatly appreciative of it! Alternatively [buying me a coffee](https://paypal.me/lead2gold?locale.x=en_US) greatly inspires me to continue improving the application.
