This I what I get too upon first adding it. To resolve use the HASS services to update the status and the panel will become active.
This get pretty annoying cause it happens on every reboot of Hass. To resolve I’ve an automation to save the status and restore it after reboot.
Below is the code i use to Save and Restore the state:
input_text:
input_text_ismartalarm:
name: Save iSmartAlarm State
automation:
- alias: Save State
trigger:
platform: state
entity_id: alarm_control_panel.ismart_alarm
action:
- service: input_text.set_value # save iSmartAlarm state on any changes
data_template:
entity_id: input_text.input_text_ismartalarm
value: "{{ states('alarm_control_panel.ismart_alarm') }}"
- alias: Restore State
trigger:
platform: homeassistant
event: start
action:
- service: alarm_control_panel.ifttt_push_alarm_state # restore iSmartAlarm state upon restart
data_template:
entity_id: alarm_control_panel.ismart_alarm
state: "{{ states('input_text.input_text_ismartalarm') }}"
