If you set the add-on mqtt_discovery_override_area to id=1;code_disarm=true; it will require a code to disarm.

I forgot I had a HP 2520 10/100 PoE switch in storage. I connected that up and sure enough the OmniPro is working again with no packet loss. I'll swap it out with the smaller TP-Link switch when it comes in tomorrow. There must be more tolerance in the signaling spec for the 10/100 network...

I was about to rip out my OmniPro II and replace it with an Elk M1 due to network port issues until I found your post. It was working fine for 7+ years connected to an HP 2530 gigabit PoE switch on a separate VLAN for the panel and router interface. Two weeks ago it started dropping ~70% of...

In the past I had kept the Hass.io add-on Dockerfile the same and just changed the OmniLinkBridge version. The base image I was using was discontinued so I had to switch over to the homeassistant/ARCH-base-debain:buster images. This ensures the base image is up to date for security patches, etc...

This has been resolved. I had a typo in the aarch64 base image docker name. My Hass.io install that I use for testing is amd64 so I hadn't noticed. In Home Assistant you might have to go to the Add-on Store, click the three dots in the upper right, and select Check for updates. If it doesn't...

@pete_c There was an issue with the Home Assistant add-on where the logs / time sync were in UTC. The docker container TZ environment variable was not available to the first process launched in the container. I updated the add-on container to use the S6 overlay as shown in the hassio example...

I had a few moments to build docker images for arm/v7. These were tested on a raspberry pi 4 and everything appears to be working outside of MySQL. When pulling the docker image with portainer use excaliburpartners/omnilink-bridge:latest 

  Yes, mqtt should work without a password. It ignores the fields if the username is blank. However I would recommend using credentials for security reasons.   The official docker package is excaliburpartners/omnilink-bridge. I currently only have amd64 architecture images available. I can look...

  Did the wired sensor fail? The straight forward solution would be using the wired sensor to the Omni zone, which would also show in Home Assistant as a binary sensor.   Going back to your Node RED question, you will need to use MQTT directly. Use the "change" node to set msg.payload to...

  OmniLinkBridge overwrites all Home Assistant discovery information for all homeassistant/*/omnilink/* MQTT topics when started. Home Assistant needs to be restarted to cleanup any old devices it might have discovered from MQTT. Once those devices are gone the ones with the 2 suffix can be...

For those interested below is the config I use for controlling the garage doors with an OmniPro 2. It requires a zone, output, button, and automation rule. By not setting the output name, it won't be discovered by Home Assistant. The button is then used to momentarily turn the output on. In Home...

  Yes the arm away, arm home, and arm night buttons work. You'll probably want to check the OmniLinkBridge logs to see if it shows the MQTT command being received. You could also test by using MQTT Explorer or similar to send the arm command.       Audio support isn't built out in...

  I think that is to be expected. If the thermostat is in heat-cool / auto mode you need to set both. The automation rules you are setting up are solely related to Home Assistant. I did find a post on their community with a workaround.  ...

  Glad to hear! I've been using Home Assistant solely for the last year. Haiku doesn't work on my latest iPhone and Space requires too much navigating around to see the details. So far I only need Space to arm in vacation mode. I wish Leviton/HAI didn't discontinue the product line. I've been...

I just released version 1.1.10, which has the thermostat current status and adds switches to bypass/restore zones from Home Assistant.     You need to set target_temp_hgih and target_temp_low instead of temperature. Please refer...
