Ring alarm arm status and inovelli red series colors

Can you add screenshots?

So, i've had months of hub issues finally cleared up. That has allowed me to continue on this journey.

  1. Am I trying to align to the device 'Ring Virtual Alarm Hub'?

  2. Within the Switch Dashboard, which Sensor Type do I select?

Thanks!

Can you elaborate on this? I’m not understanding the question…

How I got this to work: I have a switch that turns on when the alarm is activated, off when deactivated.

Did you set a virtual switch on the alarm mode? Sorry for the multiple questions. I've set up virtual devices in the past, but more linked into the simple automation app.

I set it up via a RM rule:

I added a wait because I was finding that something in the arming command was creating some Z-Wave interference.

Ahh, That's my issue. I never integrated my 'alarm' functionality with HPM, only included my ring devices. I thought since I had visability of my ring virtual control hub device I was all good. I'll work on this hpm connection to create the alarm status/mode integration with my devices.

As a side benefit with this hpm/ring alarm connection, my wife prefers to have the motion sensors armed in away mode when we are home in bed at night. The basement with walk out access gets her a little nervous . This HPM integration may allow some different motion sensors actions in the basement, while using the home mode on the ring alarm.

EDIT: HSM, not HPM

Did you ever figure this out? I want to send a text when the Ring Alarm mode is Disarmed after 10pm, however in RM when I try to create a rule based on Mode as the sensor type is defaults to the HSM modes. What sensor type do I pick as the trigger for the Rule?

Starting this up again. I now have (2) Red Series switches I'd like to push Ring Alarm status to.

I Setup the device and created a child device

Set the LED 1 setting to create the child.

Lots of posts.

Where does HSM pull in Ring Alarm Status?

Getting close.

When i run manually run actions on the RM rule it's changing the inovelli leds.

When i put my ring alarm into armed status (away or home), what is the last step to send that to automatically activate the rule? Triggering my alarm change in the ring app is not activating the LED's yet.

You have two options:

  1. Synch your HSM to Ring:

  1. Add Ring as one of the triggers:

Yep using option 1.

Do I still need to use that switch dashboard app?

Up to you, but it looks like the rule will do the same thing, so you should be good without it.

This has been a goal for a year+, so close to getting this one closed.

So, i can manually arm my alarm through the ring virtual hub in HE, i can manually turn on my different notification types (armed home is yellow, armed away is red) on the inovelli red child devices in HE. problem is when the Ring Alarm is armed, not automatically running the RM rules.

Sync is enabled on the virtual hub.

RM - armed away

RM - armed home

I see you have logging enabled - was anything logged? If so, can you include a screenshot?

When you arm Ring, does it arm HSM?

Through the Ring App - set for Armed - Home

HSM was showing disarmed

Safety Monitor - Nothing showing, set for home away


Child Device - nothing is in the logs.

I then tried arming for home away within HSM

I did note that while the notifications were on on my inovelli dimmers, they did turn off on their own.

When i disarmed in the Ring app, did see a log

But HSM didn't see it.

Okay - it looks like the link between Ring Alarm and HSM isn’t working. Are you sure the “Sync Ring Alarm mode to HSM mode?” is enabled? If it is, I would recommend you disable and re-enable it to see if they synch up.

It appears that it may have been as simple as that. I'll continue testing later. Thanks!

Getting some eye rolls on the binging and bonging that i've been creating over the past few hours. :slight_smile:

I was able to get the notifications to work how I wanted them to, I’m still working on HSM to arm disarm ring alarm through RM.

Feel free to share what you have done up to now if you get stuck.

Here is how I have Ring arm away when HSM is armed away. I separate the rules into a bunch or simple ones when I can:
