I truly don't know much about the alarm panel or the EVL-3, but I'd like to figure it out one day and be able to use any of the alarm sensors to trigger Indigo to respond (lights, siren (eventually), camera recording (SecSpy) and text messaging me.
Here's all the most recent error messages from the log from where I updated and enabled the plugin.

Here's the proof that the EVL-3 is talking to the panel:
Any ideas what I am doing wrong? I'm a total noob with this panel and such so I'm struggling a lot. I've considered buying the alphanumeric keypad to swap out for my primary pad so I can better work with it.
If anyone here knows these panels well, please help a fellow geek out.
Thanks
