It’s a bit confusing, I know, but you need two pieces:
An add-on which uses Z-Wave JS to talk to the hardware. That can be either “Z-WaveJS” or “Z-WaveJS UI”. The UI version gives you the IMHO much nicer UI, and was mandatory when this guide was first written. Now, either version will work.
The ZWaveJS integration, which talks to either of the two add-ons and exposes them to the rest of Home Assistant. This is the piece you’re missing.
Uninstall the Z-Wave JS (non-UI) add-on, then take a look at the integration installation instructions, being sure to uncheck the box that installs the official add-on. The correct value for the WS URL that you’ll need to finish the installation is in that part of the documentation.
Thank you so much for this blueprint! I now have 2 v2 keypads in the house, one by by each front/rear door. My wife loves using this instead of her phone to arm and change state as we’re coming and going, as well as showing status as it wakes on motion.
Only one problem I have is the first keypad upon arming Home has the audio cut off on the notification. Instead of saying “Home and Armed” it will just give “HH-” as the voice starts to say Home. The second keypad doesn’t seem to have this problem. They are both equal distance from my zwave stick in the HA hardware so I don’t believe it’s a signal issue.
Secondly, is there a way to add some automation piece to play the ‘property 96’ double-beep noise when a door is opened if the system is disarmed? Basically a notification of someone coming/going when we’re home but not armed. I am not a developer and am trying to understand how to do this with minimal knowledge.
Lastly, we use “Arm Night” for when we’re in the master bedroom and basically want an “Army Away” mode with all the motion sensors turned on but with the exception of the sensors in the bedroom we’re in. It helps us sleep knowing there isn’t motion anywhere on top of the door/window sensors.
Is there a way to configure the Police/Fire/Medical buttons as status lights for these alternate modes?
Currently the status will only show on the 3 buttons intended for Disarmed / Home / Away but it would be great to repurpose the Police light so if we add another keypad in the bedroom we’ll see an accurate status displayed for the mode we’re in.
Thanks in advance if anybody finds time to help with this!
Also, there seems to be a new “low temperature detected” (property: “20”) and “water detected” (property: “21”) alert that flashes the keypad numbers 1, 3, 7 and 9 with the same property and command class. I haven’t been able to figure out how clear this alert without resetting the device.
Please note that I have re-interviewed the device and re-added it still with the same issues.
UPDATE: After a restart of HA it is now working correctly
I know I missing something here. I am running into a roadblock and could use some help please.
Using a v1 ring keypad, alarmo, contact sensors all connected via ZWave JS.
Have the contact sensor working and alarmo working with the keypad, my issue where i am stuck is to have the keypad light up the backlight and the ring to light up red when counting down to armed away mode. I have looked over the blueprints and installed the v2 and the v1 blueprint and i am getting the exact output in the examples (with my device showing and not the example) I just dont know what code i am missing to have the lights and sounds come out of the key pad.
