Verisure default lock code not working

Configuration
1

Hi,

I am struggling to get the Verisure (alarm) settings to accept my default lock code.

If I manually input the code on the lock-pad and arm the alarm, everything works great. But if I leave out the code (or if I try to arm it from HomeKit or similar) I get the bellow error.

Anyone who knows what is wrong and how to fix it?

My settings as below:

verisure:
  username: “my username”
  password: “my password”
  default_lock_code: 1234
  code_digits: 4

I have tried with the code both in and out of quotation marks (1234 and “1234”). Fails on both.

This is my error log:

I have the same issue, it worked fine for a while than suddenly I also get the same error message…

I have the same problem, have you been able to get it to work, if so how?

4

No unfortunately not, could only get it to work with the standard password; so not as useful as I hoped it could have been.

5

What I did was downloading the source from GitHub, then I dropped the Verisure component into custom_components and edited the lock.py. and set my code there. restarted home assistant and now it works from both home assistant and home app in iOS.

Changed line 38: self._default_lock_code = “000000”

What would be the easiest way to create a custom component on a Raspberry Pi?
Seems odd this would be overlooked for 6-months…

Yes that’s why I started trying to find an easy dirty hack for it, I’m not a developer just trying to get things to work when i couldnt find any other fix for it. Its a little strange as you describe but there might not be that many using this component I don’t know.

I tried to read the code to figure out what’s changed. But seems login information is used in the same way. Will give it another go tomorrow.

Perhaps one can create a PR to fix this issue :man_shrugging:t3:

So this is not a fix, but it makes thing work in a none hackish way for now.
Then you’ll simply switch this panel for your normal.

      
alarm_control_panel:
  - platform: template
    panels:
      safe_alarm_panel:
        value_template: '{{ states(''alarm_control_panel.a_alarm'') }}'
        arm_away:
          service: alarm_control_panel.alarm_arm_away
          data:
            entity_id: alarm_control_panel.a_alarm
            code: 123456
        arm_home:
          service: alarm_control_panel.alarm_arm_home
          data:
            entity_id: alarm_control_panel.a_alarm
            code: 123456
        disarm:
          service: alarm_control_panel.alarm_disarm
          data:
            entity_id: alarm_control_panel.a_alarm
            code: 123456

Nice thanks I tried with a similar template as switch because I don’t have an alarm panel you need Verisure right? The switch template didn’t work though it wouldn’t take my code.

11

I’m running the above successfully for the entire day :joy: and yes I have Verisure

12

I mean you have a Verisure alarm panel as well as the door lock?

13

Enter it like this, and it will work. (for me anyway. I don’t have an alarm)

verisure:
  username: [email protected]
  password: password
  default_lock_code: ”123456”
  alarm: false
14

This looks awesome, but can you give a little guidance in how to set this template up correctly? I am very new to HA and have Verisure setup and working, but would like to use the default code.

I would assume that this is a sort of “template override” you add to configuration.yaml which then changes the way a given panel looks/works?

However, simply adding it to configuration.yaml does not make it work for me. I also tried switching my card to using the “safe_alarm_panel” as the entity rather than (verisure) entity that I use for the panel today, but that does not seem to do the trick either.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

You need to change the “a_alarm” to whatever your alarm is called within you HA. Eg if you alarm is called “mystreet_alarm”, that is the name you need to use.
