DSC Binding - how to send a command string similar to keypad

Add-ons Bindings

81

The binding is supposed to parse the string into separate characters and send them one at a time for the 070 command. Not sure why that isn’t working. I’ve looked at the binding but can’t see any reason why it wouldn’t do that. I’ll keep looking.

Just a query - do I need to install any Action’s within PaperUI?
I only installed DSC binding.

P.s my previuos solutions isn’t very rock solid because I get random zone to be flaged as bypassed because of many “>” rows. Some other commands may interrupt this. At least what I’ve noticed.

Trying different options how to pass whole command. Developer’s manual notices only 1 ascci character at once…which is strange.
Thanks for your help.

No, there is no action for the DSC Alarm binding in OH2 only in OH1.

What if you did something like this:

sendCommand(SEND_DSC_ALARM_COMMAND, "070,*”)
sendCommand(SEND_DSC_ALARM_COMMAND, “070,1”)
sendCommand(SEND_DSC_ALARM_COMMAND, “070,1”)
sendCommand(SEND_DSC_ALARM_COMMAND, “070,9”)
sendCommand(SEND_DSC_ALARM_COMMAND, “070,#”)

Hi
This simplier solution works.
Bypass group disable command works too: [070,*100#] (not in one row, but in the same manner sending characters line by line)

Do you know once the zone is in bypass mode, should partition status also become “ready”?

If I do this physically on keyboard-it works, once I turn zone into bypass mode via OH2 rule-partition remains “not ready”.

Thanks

Glad it is working!

Not necessarily, there could be another zone open that is causing it to not be ready.

Thanks Russell for your support.

Hello Antanas,

I was mistaken, just wasn’t thinking, it’s the 071 command that is parsed if you are running an IT100. The IT100 doesn’t have this command so the binding will parse the string and break it up into single 070 commands internally. So you could use sendCommand(SEND_DSC_ALARM_COMMAND, "071,*100#”), and it should work. The 070 command can only use a single character as data. Sorry for the mishap. Hope this helps.

Hi Russell
all good, thanks for double checking this. will try few options later today.

Hi @rsstephens,

Not sure why I stopped getting updates from this thread.

I finally moved to OH2 :slight_smile: I found something, but it’s unrelated so I will post in another thread.

I will help test out the 071 Command on my setup.

Thanks,
Joe

Hi @rsstephens,

Confirmed that 071 Command with DSC 2.1 works as expected on IT 100 over TCP server.

Thanks,
Joe

Thank you Joe! I appreciate you testing it. :grinning:

Hi all,

I’m encountering similar weird behaviours for the bypass mode and the Envisalink communication with the 2.3.0 DSCAlarm Binding bundle.
Maybe you can have good ideas… The thread on which we are sharing ideas is DSC zone bypass not working

The last message I sent 15 minutes ago is a good summary of my issues I guess.
Thanks in advance for your help.
