Synchronize Ring Alarm Keypad v2 with Alarmo

Okay, I feel dumb now! Haha! So, to be clear, if I want the keypad to use in HA, I need to ditch the base station and the alarm portion of the native Ring app? Would this effect my monitoring subscription I have with Ring? Sorry for the dumb questions, like I said, I’m a total newb at all this. Thank you for your help!

If you want to keep the Ring system and it’s monitoring, this is not the right path to go down. I haven’t used ring2mqtt, but my understanding is that it’s probably more what you’re looking for: integrating the full Ring ecosystem into HA.

This method is mostly for folks looking to build a DIY alarm system with HA as the controller, typically only self monitored.

Got it. Makes sense. That’s too bad since ring2mqtt doesn’t provide a mimic of the keypad to be integrated. Thank you again! Still learning all this stuff and appreciate the help.

I’m a real dummy. I realized you need to put in a disarm code in ring-mqtt in order for the keypad to populate in the alarm card. :laughing:

I just understood a problem with the blueprint. I work with alarmo. In night alarm the keypad is in disabled mode as seen above. The problem is that when the alarms are activated, the keypad flashes (normal). The problem is that it doesn’t stop after resetting.
