Is anyone successfully running this setup? I cannot for the life of me configure this. I can navigate to the EVL-4’s web ui fine. In openHAB Paper UI, I can choose 1 of 2 bridges:
For the first one (EyezOn Envisalink), I have tried countless times to configure it and get it to come online. I have tried various password lengths for the EVL-4 (i.e. 4, 6, and 8 characters).
You can’t have 2 bridges for the same DSC system. They are probably conflicting with each other. You can use the TCP Server bridge with an Envisalink, but it might be better to just use the Envisalink bridge. Hope this helps.
I should have put more emphasis on that bridge. I created that bridge first and tried to make it work without success. Then I went with the TCP bridge and everything came online.
The only other thing I can think it would be is the password is not correct? You could try to run the dscalarm binding in DEBUG mode by issuing the following command in the Karaf console:
log:set DEBUG org.openhab.binding.dscalarm
This will log DEBUG messages in the openhab.log file.
No problem… It’s been so long since I’ve actually messed with my EVL-4 that I completely forgot that it had come with the DSC firmware installed. I actually hooked it up to the Envisalerts server so that I could change over the firmware to Honeywell to use with my alarm. Give me enough time and I’ll completely forget things… lol.
