I did too and was able to strip off the https encryption, but I didn’t get anything useful or understandable.

I just found a little “bug”: whenever I restart HA, if I don’t restart the Addon too, it doesn’t log anything anymore.
This is expected behaviour: when you restart home assistant all logs are cleared, and if the addon is already running it doesn’t log anything, so the log is empty.
I’m not talking about old logs. If home assistant is rebooted, sensors are not updated anymore.
hi all, it’s been days that the addon works great, the only thing is that the entities are without a unique ID, the fault of mqtt? how can i do to have a unique ID? I am configuring the alarm with Alarmo from Hacs but having no unique ID I cannot add the sensors generated by MQTT. Thank you
Hi Nicomedia,
thank you very much for the wonderful development of the add-on. It was the only integration that was missing to conclude all the integrations.
Is it possible to change the topic “homeassistant”?
Is it necessary to set the various scenarios to OFF to disarm?
Thanks so much.
HI folks,
can someone help me to understand how this integration works? I mean, I get that I should run a docker container with the shared files, correct?
How the integration between the Bentel Absoluta is made? it requires a Bentel component?
Regards
Excellent Nicomedia … excellent job done.
One question… I’ve the partitions, I can arm disarm, but I can,t get live sensor data… can you help me plz?
thanks
Very good add-on, sorry maybe i misses something… Is it possible to manage the panel outputs?
thanks.
After doing the configuration, only 6 entities appear (memory, processor, version…). Shouldn’t the motion and fire sensors appear too? What am I missing? Thanks.
I have already discovered all the sensors. They had the same names that are in the Absolute plant. I thought they would have a name that starts with Bentel or Absoluta.
Hi @nicomedia , thanks very much for your great work!
I’ve installed and configured your add-on, but nothing happens.
I didn’t find any entity into HA. I’ve already configured another alarm, could be the problem?
Please, could you support me?
Thanks and regards
Hi,
I just instal HA on a Synology under a VM. Latest build. the only purpose was to actually connect to my Absolute Alarm.
Installed the add-on, set it up but when I start it, I get the following in the log “s6-overlay-suexec: fatal: can only run as pid 1”.
Any one else (seems Leonardo is facing the same issue)

I rebuilt my server, now using a 64bit system instead of the old 32. On the old installation the addon works even with the latest HA version, while on the new installation I have the same problem. I’ve looked around and found that you have to disable “init” option. Problem is, I don’t know how to do it
Hey guys, I managed to make the addon work again (thanks to @HasQT)!
In the absoluta folder that you copied in …/addons/local/, edit the config.json file as following:
{
"name": "Bentel Absoluta",
"version": "1.1",
"slug": "absoluta",
"description": "Add-On for interfacing with Bentel Absoluta Alarm Panels",
"arch": ["armhf", "armv7", "aarch64", "amd64", "i386"],
"init": false,
"options": {
"mqtt_broker_ip": "",
"mqtt_username": "",
"mqtt_password": "",
"panel_id": "",
"pin": ""
},
"schema": {
"mqtt_broker_ip": "str",
"mqtt_username": "str",
"mqtt_password": "password",
"panel_id": "str",
"pin": "password"
},
"ports": {}
}
Rebuild the addon, restart, and it will simply work!

i tried with your config but it doesn’t work
always the same mistake
but on the control panel you have to configure something?
thank you
I managed to start the addon but I don’t see the new identities
Have you set up the mqtt broker and integration correctly? What do you have in the absoluta addon log? Is the absoluta alarm station available?
What do you get if you restart the addon while you listen to # in the mqtt integration?
the MQTT mosquito brocker works but in the addon settings the IP is that of the control unit or home Assistant? if I activate the addon from the absolute app, I can no longer access it if I deactivate it yes but I don’t see the identities I only see 6 that create the addon
