I'm using Nyckelharpa primarily to remotely set the HSM mode to Away when a contact is open. It has worked great except for a couple times when it triggered an alarm in the middle of the night when I'm home and HSM is set to Night. The triggering contact is a window that I occasionally leave open a…

Sorry you are experiencing unexpected alarms. Having experienced this issue I understand how annoying it can be. My feeling: it is a sensor issue. In my case it was a Samsung motion sensor that acted up creating motion events when the battery was low., a new battery fixed it. Nyckelharpa relies …

Thanks for your reply. My contact sensors are all hardwired (so no battery issues) and I had not seen a false alarm before using NCKL. I'll check the logs as you suggested. NCKL definitely force armed the system. The confusing part is what caused it to trigger an alarm. The window was open about …

Then I strongly suggest removing Nyckelharpa, see what occurs, then report back on this thread. Should any issues be uncovered, I will do my best to fix it. Once again, Nyckelharpa does not trigger alerts or instrusions. It simply monitors HSM alerts and pending alerts after the system is armed by…
