HSM Arm Away Operation Question

🛡️ Hubitat® Safety Monitor
#1

How do I set up HSM so that I can 1) start Arm Away, 2) exit the front door and 3) HSM arms?

I have set up intrusion delays thru the front door for 60-secs ... fine. But this is an Exit, not an intrusion. I want to exit the house after I have armed the system (e.g., on a keypad).

What seems to be happening is:

  1. HSM Arm
  2. Front door opens so I can exit
  3. Front door closes
  4. HSM throws an arming fail due to front door opening
  5. HSM doesn't arm

What I want to happening is:

  1. HSM Arm
  2. Front door opens so I can exit
  3. Front door closes
  4. HSM arms

What can I do to get this to work? Or is this not how it is intended to work (e.g., must wait until after exit to arm?)

HSM Arming when (maybe) it shouldn't?

Choose your front door under the "Open/close sensors (auto-bypass when arming)" category under the Intrusion-Away section.

It's not in the "Configure Arming/Disarming/Cancel Options" section.

Ha ... missed it. :frowning_face: Thanks very much for the super fast response ... :grinning: :clap:

I thought that setting was for disabling bad/open inputs so that the system could still be armed with them bad. See follow-up question below.

Maybe a modification to title would help?
Open/close sensors (auto-bypass temporarily when arming)" category

As a follow-up question, how do I bypass bad inputs while arming ... let's say a zone goes bad, but I still want to arm the "rest of the system" ... because I am on vacation and can't fix it. Do I need to change the contact settings in HSM Intrusion-Away ... or is there another way?

Most everything you'd want/need is found in Nyckelharpa App. Do yourself a favor and try it out

Thanks. I just recently tripped across that ...
