Alarm system services - show intruder alarm status. #8

Closed B-Hartley closed 4 years ago

B-Hartley commented 5 years ago

Hi,

Just wondered if you were making any progress on showing the alarm status (armed / disarmed). That's the feature that I'm keen to get. Would love to be able to use the "alarm set" as a way of knowing that we were all leaving the house. Lights should turn off etc.

I can have a go at hacking it into your script myself, but I'd be winging it. I considered faking it as a zone 101 or something and then capturing it with the "A" instead of the "Z" and adjusting it to an area number, but it seems a bit of a fudge !

So if you are already working on it, would rather wait for it to be done properly.

If I can offer any support / testing etc. please let me know.

I'm using your script through the Com-USB to a raspberry pi and it does work really well !

Thanks, Bruce.

Hi guys don’t suppose there has been any update on this ? Moving to an “official” release 😬👍

Wow its really good to see that progress has been made on this feature. Anyone tested whether this works on smartcom, or will i need to purchase a comIP as well?

Thanks

@max-christian @B-Hartley Gents, have managed to get this working using this fork, with a com-ip on port three , with SmartCom taking up the first two ports. It shows arm / disarmed well. So is there any chance now that we would be able to tell who has disarmed. Or maybe able to set the alarm via HomeKit? Loving this, thanks for all your hard work
