1. Garage Door Opener

   Components

   1. Remotec Zwave Relay
   2. Schlage Door and Window Sensor
   3. Momentary tactile button

   Custom Alterations

   1. The momentary button is wired to the sensor so that the sensor is "tripped" while the button is NOT held down.
   2. The button is then wrapped in a non-conductive pad.

   Theory of operation

   The padded button is mounted so that the garage door holds the button down while the door is closed.
   The sensor is mounted for optimal communication.
   The sensor will then report whenever the button is released or depressed, indicating the state of the door.
