Re: Any Alarm.com users out there?

I've set up a trigger in Indigo to log when a door is opened or closed. However, this doesn't seem to work. It set to run when there is any change in the sensor status and just prints to the log. However, nothing prints when I open or close the door. Wondering if its because of a delay in reporting in the Alarm.com system.

There's no real-time connection, so the states will only update when the plugin polls the ADC servers. But I also can't seem to get the mobile app to accurately reflect of the sensors so there's some other delay going on.

That sounds right to me. I'll have to take a look at the alarm.com webpage more frequently to see if there is any clue there.

This sounds promising! Been waiting 10 years for this. Will take a look and let you know what I think.

Re: Any Alarm.com users out there?

OK. Here's what I go:

Reloading plugin "Alarm.com 2022.0.1" using API v3.1
Starting plugin "Alarm.com 2022.0.1" (pid 33156)
Alarm.com Error Error in plugin execution InitializeMain:

File "plugin.py", line 14, in <module>
type: 'Required Python libraries missing. Run 'pip3 install pyalarmdotcomajax aiohttp' in Terminal window, then reload plugin.

Stopping plugin "Alarm.com 2022.0.1" (pid 33156)
Stopped plugin "Alarm.com 2022.0.1"

Am I doing something wrong?

OK, I forgot to install the pylon thingy you posted earlier in the thread (via Terminal). I re-installed and this time I got this in the log:

Enabling plugin "Alarm.com 2022.0.1" using API v3.1
Starting plugin "Alarm.com 2022.0.1" (pid 33289)
Alarm.com Error Error in plugin execution InitializeMain:

I’m traveling. I’ll be looking at this again sometime next week.

Re: Any Alarm.com users out there?

cool thanks. I am using Homebridge plugin to control alarm.com system, but it isn't great. And obviously, doesn't interact with Indigo.
