Won't Update status in homekit, and keeps other items from updating #3

When I have this enabled, the logs show this every couple minutes:

Oct 17 20:43:25 desk-chip homebridge[1001]: [10/17/2017, 8:43:25 PM] [Alarm System] Getting current state
Oct 17 20:43:25 desk-chip homebridge[1001]: [10/17/2017, 8:43:25 PM] [Alarm System] Getting target state

The status never updates in Homekit, and none of my other devices update either. If I remove the configs for this plugin, everything else starts updating fine. I never get any failures in the log, just these every so often when it tries to update.

For the record, the homebridge-simplisafe plugin that just treats the system as switches doesn't have this problem.

I had this exact problem. Status wouldn't update just as you described, and prevent my other accessories from responding as well. Turns out it was a simple fix: my password was incorrect in config.json.

@ryan-peters I have this exact issue and am 100% sure my password is correct... but it's sporadic.

This sounds like the issue I'm having with my SS3. Anyone got any ideas how to fix it?

I never figured this out, and for a while I used the plugin that was just the toggle switches. However, when I came back to this plugin recently, I found that it works fine now.

There could be any number of reasons for this. Not sure if it has to do with Node versions or homebridge version or the version of this specific plugin.
