It looks like you’re trying to use classic inclusion mode, which is a good idea if smart start isn’t working. When you put the stick into inclusion mode, are you holding down the 1 button on the keypad to start classic inclusion?
It’s also a good idea to explicitly exclude a device, not factory reset it.
Try the following, and collect logs while you do it:
Put the stick into exclusion mode. On the Zwave page, “remove a device”
Tap (don’t hold) the rest button with a pin.
Wait for things to settle.
Put the stick into inclusion mode (“add a device”)
Hold down 1 on the keypad until it starts blinking green
Thank you for your help.
I send you a video where you can see my steps. In the log I can´t find any helpful information.

Stopping logging event forwarder
I repeated the steps many times and pressed the button on the ring pad for a short/long time, unplugged and plugged in the device, restarted HA,… Unfortunately, I don’t see a ring pad in the log.
Hi,
I have downloaded the latest blueprint for Alarmo. The communication between Alarmo and the Ring Keypad V2 should work as I receive all the information of the security system state on the keypad (controlling the system via phone). The only issue I have is that I can not arm the security system via the keypad directly. I am inserting the code and then press „armed away“ button, but I receive only a fault signal sound. I have also traced the z-wave events and it seems the correct code is transmitted in the event_data field, but after I have pressed “armed away” the event_data is set to “null” and again I receive this fault sound.
I hope you could help me.
Thanks and best regards,
M4v3
thank you for your reply.
Yes, I see two different events.
I am using a 8-digit number - where can I find this entry control CC section of the node in ZwaveJSUI?
Thx

I am attempting to use a Ring Alarm Keypad to unlock a lock. I’ve noticed that I can initiate an automation triggered by the ‘Enter’ event of the Keypad.
My question is, how can I utilize the following inputs:
data:
domain: zwave_js
node_id: 4
home_id: xxxxxxxx
endpoint: 0
device_id: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
command_class: 111
command_class_name: Entry Control
event_type: 2
event_type_label: Enter
data_type: 2
data_type_label: ASCII
event_data: "5555"
origin: LOCAL
time_fired: "2023-11-14T19:43:06.026274+00:00"
I want to trigger the automation with the event above and then compare the event_data with the values of another entity property (Rental Control Integration entity: Slot code). Additionally, I want to check if the time_fired is within a specified range of values from another set of data (Rental Control Integration entity: start, end).
Logically, it’s a straightforward task, but I don’t have any experience with YAML automations in Home Assistant. ---- I don’t have any experience with YAML anywhere
Listening to any events, I do for example not see any event sent when the delay period is over after countdown on 18 (Exit delay). Not sure how to manage this in a good way?
What’s your goal here? You can probably get things working to reflect the state of the internal Manual Alarm Control Panel, if you’re trying to avoid Alarmo for some reason. But the keypad is not a alarm control panel, and doesn’t have the logic necessary to be a standalone alarm system by itself.
That said, I’d really urge you to try out Alarmo. The dev is very responsive, it’s very stable, and it’s both much easier and much more flexible than the built-in manual alarm panel.
To the best of my knowledge, you can’t. You should be able to do a normal ZWave firmware update if you can get you hands on the firmware image, but Ring doesn’t make that available outside their proprietary ecosystem.
I’ve never figured out what that error means, but as far as I can tell it’s harmless.
Thanks for the awesome info compiled here - this is really excellent.
I know we can receive a message when one of the “emergency” (police, fire, medical) buttons along the left side of the keypad is long-pressed, but is there a way to go the other direction and turn the lights on those buttons on and off? (I’d like to be able to light one up to indicate when a door or window is open.)
No, they’re not independently controllable over Z-Wave. The closest would probably be to put it into medical alarm mode, which at least doesn’t play an obnoxious noise, but I’d guess it’s a lot more flashing than you probably want.
If you disarm the alarm with alarmo, will the Ring keypad also be in the disarmed state, or will it remain in the armed state ? In other words, can Alarmo also operate the ring keypad by means of a automation ?
But, this behavior needs to be programmed via an automation. I use Node Red, and have flows that watch for changes to the Alarmo state and send the appropriate commands to the Ring keypad to set their states to match. And vice versa, automations that watch for keypad entries to arm or disarm and send those commands to Alarmo. So everything stays in synch, and the user experience is that they are totally seamless and integrated.
I don’t use the blueprint that this thread’s author has created, but I believe it takes care of all of this for you, if you don’t want to create your own automations.
