Hi, is there a way to use the switchbot keypad (without lock) to arm/disarm alarmo??
I’ve connected the keypad to ha (bluetooth) but it’s shown as a Plug Mini 91AE with only one sensor for power thath doesn’t even trigger when i press some key on the keypad

anyone know if this will be supported anytime soon? would be great if we can detect code usage by user on HA.

+1 from me
Would be nice to use the keypad standalone together with my custom build lock.

Maybe this will be supported with the new Switchbot Cloud Integration

i allready got the keypad and the hub mini…
I use this add-on to control the keypad touch and create new temporary codes with automations:

@lflondonol is it working smoothly for you? I get issues all the time
Yes, it has been working fantastic for me. Here’s the script that I use:
alias: "Create One Time Password Keypad"
sequence:
- action: button.press
metadata: {}
data: {}
target:
entity_id:
- button.btn_2_reloadkeys_xxxxxxxxxx
alias: Reload the existing keys
- action: select.select_option
continue_on_error: true
target:
entity_id: select.id_2_cmd_xxxxxxxxxx
data:
option: >
{{ state_attr('select.id_2_cmd_xxxxxxxxxx', 'options') |
select('search',':Password for') | list | first }}
alias: Select the latest temporal key
- if:
- condition: not
conditions:
- condition: template
value_template: "{{is_state(\"select.id_2_cmd_xxxxxxxxxx\", \"unknown\")}}"
then:
- action: button.press
metadata: {}
data: {}
target:
entity_id:
- button.btn_2_cmd_xxxxxxxxxx
alias: Delete the temp key only if it was selected
- delay:
hours: 0
minutes: 0
seconds: 10
milliseconds: 0
- variables:
startTime: >-
{{ ((now() + timedelta(days=1)).replace(hour=5, minute=30, second=0,
microsecond=0)).timestamp() | int }}
endTime: >-
{{ ((now() + timedelta(days=1)).replace(hour=17, minute=0, second=0,
microsecond=0)).timestamp() | int }}
code: "{{ {'value': states('sensor.random_code') } }}"
- action: text.set_value
metadata: {}
data:
value: Password for {{ (now() + timedelta(days=1)).date() }}
target:
entity_id: text.name_1_cmd_xxxxxxxxxx
- action: text.set_value
metadata: {}
data:
value: "{{code.value}}"
target:
entity_id: text.password_1_cmd_xxxxxxxxxx
- action: select.select_option
metadata: {}
data:
option: a temporary passcode.
target:
entity_id:
- select.type_1_cmd_xxxxxxxxxx
- action: number.set_value
metadata: {}
data:
value: "{{startTime}}"
target:
entity_id: number.starttime_1_cmd_xxxxxxxxxx
- action: number.set_value
metadata: {}
data:
value: "{{endTime}}"
target:
entity_id: number.endtime_1_cmd_xxxxxxxxxx
- action: button.press
metadata: {}
data: {}
target:
entity_id:
- button.btn_1_cmd_xxxxxxxxxx
- stop: Script finished
response_variable: code
fields: {}
description: ""
The code are removed and created without any issues. I have been using this script the last 3 weeks.

Does that require any hub or other SwitchBot device or can it connect directly via WiFi?

I have the Mini Hub and it’s mandatory to use the add-on.

Are you using it standalone or is the keypad paired with a lock? I just want the Keypad Vision to unlock my existing lock.
As far as I can tell during the setup process the Vision Keypad connects to my phone for setup but then wants to pair to a lock for it to work.

I also have the Keypad Touch integrated to HA with the Switchbot-MQTT Add-On.
I can create new codes too.
But I am missing the Sensors:
All sensors exept “Polling” are unknown.
Do you have more sensors?

@lflondonol Are you using the keypad and the hub alone? Or did you need a lock as well?
The keylock is paired with my lock

I’m wondering, is anybody aware of a way to use the keypad to trigger an automation?
