There is a service to enable and disable cameras, you can manage it

Hi there, First of all; I love the integration and its functionality. I was wondering if it is possible to send out quick responses on the Eufy doorbell through Home Assistant. For example I thought it would be fun to trigger some custom recorded quick responses on a doorbell press on certain occasions.
I saw that the ‘eufy-security-ws’ integration has some options for quick responses (see below), but I have no clue how to actually integrate these in a script and whether they’d even work for this purpose.
Any ideas?
#Doorbell quick response
#[compatible with schema version: 3+]
interface {
messageId: string;
command: "device.quick_response";
serialNumber: string;
voiceId: number;
}
#Get doorbell quick response voices
#[compatible with schema version: 3+]
interface {
messageId: string;
command: "device.get_voices";
serialNumber: string;
}
#Returns:
interface {
serialNumber: string; // [added with schema version: 4+]
voices: Voices
}
As i don’t want to bloat this post anymore, can we discuss over here? Eufy Security Integration
and, the answer is yes, you can send commands as captured in WS repository using home assistant integration. Example: Camera control using the service eufy_security.send_message · Issue #71 · fuatakgun/eufy_security · GitHub
Is there a way to control the speaker in a camera and basestation? Like, is it possible to let it sound an alarm (like the anti-theft alarm)? My parents got an unwanted visitor tonight. Luckily he was caught on the camera and all doors were locked. But it would like to scare the guy next time off before he got to the backdoor. Or even give my parents a physical button they can press, that triggers an automation that sets off the alarm and notifies me for instance. Not only for an unwanted visitor situation, but also for other emergency situations (they are not the youngest anymore, unfortunately).
You can trigger alarm on base station using eufy_security custom integration. I haven’t implemented alarm trigger for cameras, feel free to request this on repository directly

I also have a wired eufy door bell, If you need more testers !
I have a T8200 doorbell. Happy to test and give feedback!
Thanks for your great work on this!
bropat is working another version which might solve majority of logging in and no-devices and locked issues.
Has anyone tried this with this Eufy Battery Doorbell 2K Lite (Model E82211)?
It’s not on the device list on bropat’s github, but I dont see how it would be any different then the current ones. This model appears to be special for certain stores, like Costco in certain parts of the US.
Most of the time, unlisted devices might work out of the box, or might be missing some functionalities but bropat is very kind to implement these as long as someone share a device with him through the implementation.

I have eufy wired doorbell and been using mqqt integration for a year
It works nice, but stream component is laggy i have to run a script and after 5-10seconds the stream goes on
Are there any new updates of instant streaming?
is there until now no other way to realize it ?
i must install Iobroker addon and then there the eufy-security addon, and configure there my cams, right?
then add the yamls and i can use the ptz control with my eufy cam?
There is also integration and the eufy_security addon. I have a camera hijacking T8410 and I can control the camera through the PTZ, there are sensors and I can use all its functions
Yes this is what I have installed this is the normal one ?
I have no pzt. Controls ? Have you it under the camera entity ?
You might be confused.
The “normal” one you refer to is probably the built-in integration:
The one most were using before was:
This thread is regarding:
okay, maybe I expressed myself badly I installed the version of fuatakgun.
but i had no PTZ Sensors or Options how @DivanX10 said, see here
i have the Eufy 2K Indoor Camera , Model T8410
i have the same model, can you make a screenshot of the sensor for PTZ control?
There are no sensors available out of the box for ptz but integration allows you to send commands to devices directly even there is no sensor built for it.
Please check webrtc GitHub repository, i have seen users of eufy_security integration shared their examples there.
To control the PTZ, you need to see if your camera has support. If there is, then you need to use the services, hijack_security.send_message. You can read more here

okay that works. but now i tried to add it to the overlay ptz control.
the problem is that i must send a number for direction, example 1.
then its no STRING its a NUMBER but the Integration wants a STRING.
i tried it different ways, here is my latest test with a script
the button
- type: custom:webrtc-camera
entity: camera.kinderzimmer
ui: true
ptz:
service: script.ptz_kinderzimmer
data_left:
direction: 1
the scirpt
service: eufy_security.send_message
data:
message: |-
{
"messageId": "cmd Pan And Tilt Down",
"command": "device.pan_and_tilt",
"serialNumber": "T8410P3121302681",
"direction": {{ direction }}
}
i tried it with quotes but no luck. i cant send a number as a string.
