HAI Dimmer Trigger

[uptito]

I don't know if it's possible butI thought I ask first before I waste time. So what I want to know is that can HAI dimmer be used to trigger action in OP2?

What I'm trying to accomplish is that I would like to change alarm status from night to day or bypass downstairs motion sensor when any of the bedrooms HAI 35A00-1 dimmer is turned on at night and restore it back when it's turned off. UPStart dimmer property has "Transmit Components" tab so I thought UPB dimmers can send and receive upb signals and use the signal as a trigger in PC access to perform action. Thank you

I'm an elk person, not HAI - but I know it's possible in Elk, and 99% sure it's possible in HAI. Look at rules for a trigger based on a UPB event.

Yes it's possible to programmatically change alarm armed states with UPB or other trigger events.

Okay I followed UPStart doc but couldnt get it to work to trigger event. Obviously I'm doing something wrong. FYI, Dimmer and OP2 works fine. I can arm/disarm from PC access or keypad and also dim/turn on or off. I'm happy with it. I'd like for someone to point me in the right direction please.

You need to program it into the Omni.

e.g.

WHEN. Bedroom Light OFF
THEN Arm Night

WHEN. Bedroom Light ON
THEN Off
