Yeah i get into that connecting to socket loop sometimes, too. I haven’t found a way around it… will dig in next week.

Here’s my latest log info: QolsysLog - Pastebin.com
It has some errors in it, not sure if it might help you or not.
Ran for over 3 days without issue, then today I had to restart AppDaemon to restore functionality.
What is interesting is that we left the house twice for multiple hours yesterday, and on the first outing the log continued to be filled up with INFO events the entire time we were gone. However, on the second outing, the INFO log entries stopped very soon after the arming event at timestamp 17:11:40 and the socket appeared to be idle or not broadcasting while we were gone.
We returned at timestamp 21:36:00 and the disarm command to the alarm was successful, however, no response was received. This resulted in the alarm still appearing as “armed” in Home Assistant.
I later tried to disarm it via Home Assistant at timestamp 22:25:44 and got no response. This time, the alarm system did not respond to the command (but this could be because it was already disarmed).

All very strange, but I have noticed on a few occasions that the alarm panel “performs” a final request like this without a response before everything stops working and further inspection reveals that INFO events were no longer showing up in the log. I no longer got errors when sending commands to the non-responsive panel, but I still need to restart AppDaemon container entirely to get everything working again.
Hey folks,
After installing ad-qolsys via HACS, I did the ACL and other config changes noted above and can see mqtt publish events for sensors as they change, but there are no entities for these sensors in Home Assistant. Should entities be automatically created my sensors or do I need to create them myself somehow?
It should just work. What does the log tell you? If you subscribe to mqtt do you see the messages? Is auto discover turned on in HA MQTT?
I added mosquitto add-on and enabled the HA integration connecting to it. That integration has discovery on. When listening to topic “#” in the same integration, no messages appear when opening and closing doors.
Below is my current config and logs. It seems like ad-qolsys is recognizing the events, but not sending them via mqtt? Is that right?
mqtt config:
EDIT: The “Broker options” image below has incorrect configuration. See my reply below for what worked.

I finally got the entities to show up, but everything is unavailable. Any suggestions? Also, I’m not sure how to add other alarm modes. I’m super new to MQTT stuff. I had to comment out “qolsys_port: 12345 # Optional” to stop seeing errors in the MQTT broker, as suggested earlier in this thread.
Another thing that may be an issue, my panel is running firmware 2.6.0 which I updated to manually, not sure what you guys are running but I hope that isn’t the cause of this problem
@DDragon everything looks right to me. It looks like it’s trying to publish your messages. However, I do see in your Broker options there’s a username and password. Is your MQTT broker setup as anonymous? I don’t see any credentials in your appdaemon config. When you listen to #, are you using any credentials?
Look at that. This is the mistake I made!
For anyone looking at this in the future, I originally tried to set up client_user and client_password in appdaemon.yaml but this didn’t work.
What did work was changing my mqtt integration to connect anonymously without any login info in appdaemon.yaml (the config I posted above).
Now the only device missing is my CO Detector. It looks like that doesn’t have a device class in ad-qolsys.

I decided to start from scratch again, deleting the broker username and password seemed to work for me, except once again all my devices show as “unavailable” @crazeeeyez any idea what causes this? My config essentially matches DDragon’s above
One thing I forgot when updating my solution, I also noticed that my Mosquitto add-on configuration was missing the active: true flag. Below is what mine looks like:
logins: []
customize:
active: true
folder: mosquitto
certfile: fullchain.pem
keyfile: privkey.pem
require_certificate: false
Weird, I just noticed my motion detector works but nothing else does.
Restarting my HASS host fixed it. Everything works!
Does anyone know how to hide Night arming when bridging this into HomeKit? It doesn’t do anything when pressed.

Just edit the Alarm Panel card to remove the Night arming option.
That removes it from the HASS UI but the options are still passed into HomeKit, unless I’m misunderstanding something?
Wouldn’t it be better to remove night mode from this integration, since it’s not a feature of Qolsys panels?
The appdaemon app isn’t “exposing” night mode. If someone knows how to suppress night mode, happy to look into it.
I see, but night mode shows up under “available states” in HASS, is that just how the alarm panel card works? There doesn’t appear to be a way to exclude states. Could this be accomplished with an alarm template? Sorry if this is a trivial question, I’m still learning the HASS way of things.
I think that’s just how the alarm panel card works … I suppressed night mode on my card. I didn’t expose to homekit.
I also suppressed night mode on my card too, but unfortunately I can’t seem to exclude it in HomeKit. Would it be possible to configure night mode so it just sends a stay command? Or maybe i can exclude night mode with a template
