I haven’t seen this on my side. If you go into the App where the settings are, is the recreate toggle turned on? If so, turn it off and save.

Thank you, @brianwilson. I'll check it out when I get home.

rickyturner · August 28, 2019, 12:50am

assume you're talking about this guy. It was on. One turned it off.
I suppose it's... Possible? That I have opened that app at some point some front set up? But I certainly don't remember doing so, as I haven't had any need.
But I guess leaving that in is a bad idea once you're set up, regardless, huh?

brianwilson · August 28, 2019, 1:20am

It should turn off after it’s been run the first time. I’ll check the code and make sure. Sorry it broke your integrations. If you have a backup you might could roll back and turn it off?

rickyturner · August 28, 2019, 1:36am

It's not that big a deal, the things it broke. I've already fixed them. I've been easing into security related integrations some my entire system is new, and I just got locks, etc. I just want to make sure I know what to do/not to do to ensure I won't have unexpected events in the future.

If you remember, I had some difficulty getting those child devices to create due to the way my container was set up. So I went through the setup process several times...

So it may be no fault of the code at all that mine was still on. But it definitely was, for whatever that's worth troubleshooting-wise.

Thanks for the suggestion on the rollback, though. Good thought.

Love this integration. Is there any way to pull up the panelstatus item via a dashboard? I’d like to be notified or visually look what is open when arming or disarming.

It’s shown with the text string in attached pic.

Where can I find the source code? The "here" link at the top no longer works. I'm interested in installing the [Envisalink Integration Application and Connection Driver] but this link does not work.

cuboy29 · February 14, 2020, 4:31am

You can add the attribute tile and point it to that attribute.

brianwilson · February 14, 2020, 4:43am

Looks as if the author took it down. My copy of it is here: GitHub - bdwilson/hubitat_envisalink: Integration for Hubitat to Envisalink 3 or 4

Keep reading step 2 for the other way.

Hey @cybrmage, can you please remind me what the telnet code is to send Envisalink the silent panic. I'm just circling back around to working on this and I've found that @Doug has had his Envisalink thread removed so I can no longer reference our previous discussion about this. I believe you found that the burglar silent alarm was the only one available to trigger?

Thanks!

Does instandarm work in DSC? I dont see it anywere and the armnight button doesn't work. is that the instantarm (no entry arm)

brianwilson · March 1, 2020, 2:40am

No idea; don’t have a DSC.

darron · March 11, 2020, 5:25am

@brianwilson is there any way to access the panelstatus string shown for the device from a Hubitat dashboard or sharp tools? It doesn’t seem to be an attribute that can be accessed from dashboards, can it?

brianwilson · March 14, 2020, 2:45pm

Sorry it took me so long to get to this. Try the updated version

darron · March 23, 2020, 6:12am

@brianwilson worked like a charm. Thx so much!

mkosor · April 19, 2020, 7:06pm

I keep getting "unknown exception occurred while saving App code". Can you help this newcomer install your Envisalink app & driver. Currently using EL4 on DSC

brianwilson · April 19, 2020, 7:58pm

Need more info; are you installing the native code or the one that uses smartthings-nodeproxy? What does the warning say - any line numbers? Screenshot?

New App import functions but Save results in "unknown exception..." message

mkosor · April 20, 2020, 2:35am

Brian- my fault- bad raw URL- working now. Thanks

rsteve · June 22, 2020, 8:33pm

Finally got a chance to troubleshoot the one issue I've had for some time. This may just be inherent to how to the panel functions, but wanted to get y'alls thoughts..

With the system disarmed, the motion sensors update as they should when seeing motion. However, when in armed-STAY, the status reads as "null" in the Hubitat device. Which sort of makes sense because motion is allowed in this mode. However, I can tell the alarm system itself still understands there is indeed motion because it shows a fault momentarily. So i'm not sure where the null reading is coming, or how to correct it, if even possible.

This is important because i would like to use the alarm system's motion sensors as a nightlight trigger after the alarm is activated. Thanks!
