Hi! Yes, this is indeed a bug and its messing people’s automations :-/
I know people got away with workarounds, but this is on my todo list to fix it.
Not sure if there’s a bug raised for it, if no, it would be great if you could raise it for tracking, so people can find it in the future and know what the status is. I will then close it once it’s fixed.
Maybe stupid question - how to raise bug for your component ? 
Just raise a bug for HomeAssistant and clearly state that it concerns satel-integra component. The process is described here: https://www.home-assistant.io/help/reporting_issues/ .
You’ll be helping the community too!
Tried my best
That’s great, thanks!
Hi there!
I’m figting with Integra integration and have two issues so far. Few INT-IORS modules are installed to control all lights and blinds.
(1) I’ve defined switchable outputs and can include satel entities into lovelace card, there I can switch the light on/off. My question is: how to use this switch in an automation? I can’t find how action section should look.
(2) Anyone controlling blinds? Up/down buttons would be sufficient but also it would be great to know what is the status (open/closed/% opened) based on some time variable/counter.
Is there an error in official doc’s regarding switchable_outputs and INTERGRA ID? According to integration page, as code it should be used INTEGRA ID found in dxload, but switches added that way doesnt work. However if alarm arming code is used, everythink works fine.
Indeed the code parameter is the code for the alarm.
There is a bit of cleaning up in order here: the documentation is one thing, but changes in the config are also necessary.
The codes for arming/disarming alarm can be separate from the ones that are used for switchable_outputs. Unfortunately, this integration does not yet support it.
It’s realy misleading at the moment. I was trying to make it work whole afternoon, the only thing that eventually aimed me to the solution was !secret alarm code phrase in one of your previous post. Anyway integration works like a charm, thank you
Indeed, this parameter description wasn’t added by myself, but I was the one not describing it at all in the first place I’m collecting some time to fix it.
Are there any news about the encryption support?
Also I have a problem when multiple switches are changed the same time - for example two light sources in the same room, mapped as two output lines. Only way to get around this problem is map those lines as logic sum and create one virtual output to which rest of output are connected.
In example - when I say “turn on lights on living room” only one is switched on and google responds with error for rest of them.
Has someone figure out some work around for this?
No encryption supported yet, I haven’t gotten time to update the code for a while now, and honestly, there are some other, more pressing issues to fix first.
Regarding turning multiple lights - I’d have to know more to understand the issue. What kind of output? Is the code the same for all of them? what’s the config on the dloadx side as well as on the HA side?
I would suggest to raise the issue and ping me in it, this may help others: either it’s a real bug, or it’s some config issue you’ve accountered that someone else might have too.
Satel Integra + Expander INT-IORS. From INT-IORS multiple 230V lines are exposed lined to light sources. In example below there are two outputs controlling two source of light in the living room
Now those two lines are mapped as two switchable_outputs. Everything works fine except the situation there is a need to switch those two lights in the same time. Only one of them is triggered.
Since my first post I have figured out a workaround - to add at least 200ms delay in script or automation between each switch.turn_on call to different outputs.But it work a little silly in case of “turn off all lights of the house”
Glad that you’ve found work around, cause I’m afraid this is the limitation of the Satel API. When I send bunch of API calls bundled together, it staggers and only processes one 
Maybe I could be smarter about this, but I need to dig into API description to be sure. Then there would be somethign smarter to do…
Hi,
I am not sure if this is the best place to ask for help but I couldn’t find a better place (except for https://github.com/c-soft/satel_integra).
First of all thanks for this integration, I am using it extensively and I’ve built several automations based on it. Until recent Home Assistant update ( 0.112.4) it worked perfectly. Unfortunately, since some time it became unstable and I am not sure what is the real reason for that. I did nothing in my configuration except for updating the Home Assistant.
The state of my control panel entities ( alarm_control_panel.away, alarm_control_panel.night) is always Unknown, similarly, state of contactors and motion detectors is not updated in real-time. What is even more strange is that when I click on such a sensor in Development Tools I get the correct history of state transition (like Clear/Detected for Motion sensors, and there is no Unknown state anywhere).
In my log messages I started getting thousands of messages of this type:
Logger: satel_integra.satel_integra

I tried disconnecting Ethm-1 power and it helped for a short period of time but after several hours it stopped again. Satel iOS app works normally and sensors are updated in real-time.
I will really appreciate any suggestion about what could go wrong.
Cheers,
Tomasz
This is the reason of your “problem” 
Unfortunately Ethm-1 plus only supports one connection at a time. So I bet your problems started when you started using satel iOS app.
Am I right?
Probably not. I’m not using iOS app frequently, in fact when I integrated satel in Home Assistant I stopped using it. I’ve opened it recently after Home Assistant satel integration started to be unreliable just to make sure that everything works. Anyway just to be sure, is it enough to logout iOS satel app or shall I do something else?
EDIT:
Ok, I got it. I am running HA in a docker container in Synology NAS, when upgrading I created a new container and accidentally two containers were running. Your hint about single connection at a time helped me a lot. Thanks and once again great integration!
Ah, that makes sense then. Glad you have worked it out!
Hi there,
Thank you very much for Satel Integra support. Most things are working but some outputs I can’t control.
2 identical outputs:
And finally aa I can control, bb I can’t, it’s always on. Control from Satel app working fine. I’ve found 2 such outputs so far, others working fine. Any idea?
Best regards,
Pawel
Hi there! I’m afraid I don’t have any clear clues here.
Long shot suggestion: there seems to be an issue with very fast calls one after another - maybe you always switch them together? Then only one is processed and second ignored?
Did you turn on debugging on the component? Anything in logs ?
