When I use a code to unlock the Schlage 599, I see a log entry that includes, amongst other things, the code number used to unlock or the name of the individual (if that has been assigned).
Is there a way to send a message (i.e., Pushover) that includes the name or code number used to unlock the door?
Right now I have a RM rule that sends me %device% is %value%. This results in me receiving a push message that says, for example, "Basement Shop Back Door Lock is Unlocked"
I would like to be able to use a variable that represents the descriptionText from the lock event (sample below).
descriptionText: Basement Shop Back Door Lock was unlocked by Eric
or, alternatively, a variable that represents the code number or name that could be combined with the existing variable - something like: %device% was %value% by %lock user% ??
I looked at several of the docs and didn't see it and I didn't find any mention of this in the forum. I feel like I missed it somewhere . . .
Not sure about the variable part, but as a worst case you should be able to create a trigger for each lock code, and hard code the name in the push notification.
Shooting at ghosts here but I wonder if that could be incorporated into message central. Not trying to give cobra extra work but it might be a good addition to it. Maybe cobra can answer if it is doable or not or if he wants to.
The method described by @ajones is exactly how I have mine set up. For both keypads and door locks: it tells me exactly who unlocked which lock or who disarmed which keypad.
If you want the names associated to the lock code then you need a separate trigger for each lock. The above examples only show you the door that unlocked and not the person due to looking at multiple locks at the same time.
I have a schlage BE469 and I have a RM rule similar to yours, but in the "select triggered events I was able to choose the names (I only have 2 codes assigned) associated with the codes instead of any lock Code and pushover sends me the name that unlocked the lock .
It is a really nice app from Cobra. It allows you to send messages based on contacts, lights, switches and allows setting the volume of the speaker(s). You can use a bunch of variables such as $time%, %date%, %device%, %event%, etc. You can allow restrictions based on time, mode, etc. You can select one speaker or multiple speakers to send to. I am sure this is just the tip of the iceberg but I just got started with it.
Maybe others can chime in on more of it's capabilities.
