this plugin is fantastic. Q on DSC

Post by Seeker »

I've been running HKB for a few weeks with a few indigo devices and the DSC alarm panel. it is fantastic, especially for siri control of my DSC from Carplay. About half the time, siri responds to 'DSC off' (or DSC away) with 'sorry, unable to..' message, but the command does actually work. Any tips as to where this delay in status update is being caused?

so I have a DSC panel as well, and have just started with HKB, so I'm not the biggest authority... but the one thing I've discovered is when Arming the alarm, from any source... the alarm panel, thru Indigo, or thru HKB, while the alarm is in Exit Delay, HKB doesn't seem to be able to do much. After the time frame is over, HKB works as it should.. Not sure this is the same problem you are having, but it could be you've been successful in sending the primary command, but due to the exit delay, things might not be updating or working as expected.

Again, NOT sure this applies to you... but just my. 2¢'s worst.
