Sorry, maybe a stupid question. But when i add a Surveillance Device for a sub Zone, is the App Monitoring only from here:
- House
- - First Floor
- - - Guest Room
- - Second Floor
When i have a Device into First Floor, is monitoring only First Floor and Guest Room, or the whole House?
Tnx
The app will monitor your devices regardless of the zones. The zone is included in the devices list to help you identify your sensors.
It contains some code cleanup, no functional changes.
Is it possible to set something like that: when "Alarm is turned off" and "Armed xy", then "yz"?
Tnx
Version 0.1.2
Version 0.1.3
In this version the History view is a table instead of the textbox:
Next will be the option to enable colors in the history:
and the The alarm is deactivated will be added (@viktor)
What do you want to achieve with your requests? If that's more clear to me I can perhaps discuss it with @swttt to see what would be the best/easiest way to get it working.
Edit: I see now that you're contributing to the Homekit app
The security system homekit service also has the capability to reflect the alarm state by setting the state of the security system to alarm_triggered. But for this to work the surveillance mode switch device has to have a capability that reflects the alarm state. As the standard homealarm device has the capability alam_tamper I thought this might be the way to go.
The homealarm type is not a problem, I can work around that.
Does the alarm state have to come from the same device as the mode selection?
The reason I don't want to add the alarm_tamper to the Surveillance Mode Switch is because it would show up on the device card and would be confusing. I don't think it's possible to add a capability to a device and keep it hidden from the interface.
In order to get Heimdall working with Homekit I want to push a new Alpha version for @Niek to test with and it may break stuff.
Thanks!
Version 0.1.4
New flow trigger card:
The Source tag holds the way the alarm is deactivated, either via a flow or the Alarm Off Button
Is it possible to add a time-out on the second activation of the (delayed) trigger? I have a motion sensor and door sensor in the same spot which I've added with a delay. When I open the door, both trigger the flowcard and I get the same warning sound played twice.
THX!!!
Could you post a screenshot of the flow that plays the warning sound so I can recreate your flow for testing?
(btw, created a github issue for it: https://github.com/daneedk/com.uc.heimdall/issues/5)
Thanks.
THX!!!
Version 0.1.4
New flow trigger card:
The Source tag holds the way the alarm is deactivated, either via a flow or the Alarm Off Button
I'm finalising translations and hope to have all done for 0.1.6, if you come across any English texts while having your Homey set to Dutch, please let me know.
Also saves a few flows
Love the app already btw
Would be nice to have smoke / co2 sensors also in the list. So fire will also trigger a alarm
I read you would like to know the reasons.. Well first.. All alarm systems have inputs for the CO/2 Fire and heat.
Second is that fire is also a "house" alarm state . WOuld be nice if we know if someone wants to get in but also when the house is being on fire inside .
Maybee also sirens to the trigger direct from app ?
The less flows the more appvalue... (Which offcourse is already extremly high
The code that does the countdown during a delayed trigger/delayed arming is there so it shouldn't be to hard to create something audible through Homey. I'll put it on the list.
(Created a github issue for it: https://github.com/daneedk/com.uc.heimdall/issues/6)
Adding Smoke/CO/heat/water etc. is already on the list to look into, but at a lower priority as I want to bring this out of Beta first and then look at the other stuff.
Beautifull app, works perfect. I also support the request tot include other type of sensors, but understand that your priority is to bring the app out of beta first.
Something else I would like to be included (but which might not be within your power) is to be able to set the smartphone to make a noise or start vibrating so that you are actively alerted when you are away from home.
I managed to find a workaround by installing an android app called Light Flow that manages notifications received by the android smartphone and set actions accordingly. In my push notification I have put the word "Alarm" and Light Flow checks the Homey notifications for that specific word and then, according to your settings, starts making the selected noise or vibration.
For the time being, till Homey includes this possibility into their smartpone app, other users might like this workaround as well.
Yours,

Version 0.1.6
Version 0.1.5 is skipped, private Alpha to test Homeykit compatibility, result will be included in a future version.
Next on the Roadmap is Speech Output.
Would you consider putting in another column in the log which indicates which room that alarm is for? Because right now, I have several lines saying: PIR: Motion detected. And I cant tell which of my sensors it is.
