The current state will be in and follows the HomeKit Alarm state conventions (same document as above). This node emits a message when the alarm system changes state, such as switching from 'Home' to 'Away' or 'Disarm', or if a sensor triggers an alarm when armed.

This was introduced to work directly with Dashboard and a few other node-red nodes.

Value - A new mode that essentially just accepts a single 0 to 4 value as the payload.

Homekit - Special mode for working with HomeBridge Alarm Nodes.

Make sure you select the right 'mode' in the node configuration:

(see below for IMPORTANT WARNING about infinite loops!). See: HomeKit-Model-Reference - SecuritySystemTargetStateĮssentially, a 'ChangeState' message updates the panel state and echos the state on ALL 'StateChanged' emitters associated with that same panel Payloads follow the HomeKit Alarm state conventions with SecuritySystemTargetState being the new state you would prefer the alarm panel to be in. Attach it to a panel to control that property or zone. Send a message to a 'changeState' node to update the alarm panel state. So for a simple house with just arming and disarming, create a single panel.įor a bigger property where you may want to fully arm some zones and leave other disarmed or on night mode, create separate panels for each zone. There is 1 configuration node and four flow node types currently provided:Ĭreate an alarmPanel configuration node to tie together states and sensors for a property or zone.
