Did you change this:
- platform: template
sensors:
alarm_arm_status:
entity_id: binary_sensor.alarm_arm_status #### <-----HERE
value_template: >-
Or is it still:
- platform: template
sensors:
alarm_arm_status:
entity_id: sensor.alarm_arm_status
value_template: >-
This is the entity id that HA monitors for changes to know when it should update the template. It should be like the first example, binary_sensor...
, not sensor...
