1 year ago Ok, a couple things. The vista20se code version from dev has some issues as it's in the middle of some dev changes that I have not tested out yet. Use the version code from the Master branch. I should comment on that.
The keypad address you set for the vista20se in the yaml won't matter it's not needed. That's only used for the vista20 variants.
Your changes to remove the the zero values in processstatus is problematic as it will remove any cmd string that has a zero anywhere in it for the first 10 bytes. Also, 00 is a valid cmd string so should not be removed. The issue why you are getting all those zeros is odd. Might indicated a weak signal that can happen with the isolated version, but I don't see checksum errors on your FB command so that looks ok (0x77 on byte 12)
If you want to ensure you don't get 00 cmds, you can modify this section the vista::handle function:
//if (x >=0 && x <0xf0 ) { //assume it's a status cmd //<- change this to
if (x >0 && x <0xf0 ) { //assume it's a status cmd // <- this only allow cmds above zero to be processed
vistaSerial->setBaud(2400);
newCmd = true;
gidx = 0;
cbuf[gidx++] = x;
readChars(3, cbuf, & gidx, 5);
processStatus(cbuf, & gidx);
return 1;
}I have a very old vista20se that was donated to me by another user which I use to test. Unfortuantely, there are variants out there that might have some differences in the protocol.

Ciao Alain, Thank you very much for your effort! This project is amazing!
I currently have an Ademco Vista 25IT, that so far seems to be the italian version of the Vista 20SEa, with the following list of devices:
I followed the doc you wrote and assembled the ground isolated version of the circuit using a pair of 100kohm + 5.1kohm in parallel to make the 4.7kohm resistors (actually 4.85252 kohm) and a pair of 220ohm + 1kohm in parallel to make the 180 ohm resistor. Used ESP8266 wemos D1 R2. (pin mapping is the same of your example). (I used the 4N35 optocouplers)
Zones/addresses:
I'm not sure about the keypad address, looking at the manual, it seems that it should be at address 31, but I'm really not sure about it. The address I set on the yaml file is 36. lrr is set to true. (don't have one)
I made the following changes to the code to make it work with my panel:
// Italian language adaptation in vistaAlarm.h // hoping it is appreciated, here are the translations...
// Status processing in vista.cpp I need to discard messages that contain only zeroes otherwise I'm not able to retrieve anything from the panel
I plugged it to the bus and it works, I can read the bus and send commands to the panel.
The problem is that sometimes I get a lot of false positives, specially when I bypass a zone. This results in wrong reporting of the panel status (Alarm flag, Armed status, Bypassed zones reset, ...)
After a brief investigation I found out that this is because these messages that are sometimes sent to the panel (not sent together)
Only zeroes example
// Filtered out the "sending state C for sensor XYZ"
Some other interesting logs
// Filtered out the "sending state C for sensor XYZ"
What can I do? Thank you in advance!
