Honeywell 5800RPS Door Sensor With Home Assistant

These are commonly installed by ADT Home security Systems and are for the most part great. They have a long battery life, a reasonable range, work on RF technology. If your subscription has run out or you wish to repurpose, how do you interface these great little sensors with Home Assistant ? Read on..
