Debugging disarm not working overnight

Open bobfang opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

Hello! Great work with the keybus! I would like to receive some pointers on how to debug my setup.

I'm having an issue where my homebridge MQTT setup is unable to disarm the DSC PC1832 after being armed overnight. I only have 1 partition.

What works:

  • Arming system
  • Receiving updates via MQTT for all zones
  • Disarming if armed in the last 10-20 minutes

Does not work:

  • Disarm after being in armed stay overnight (access code is saved in the sketch). I have to use the panel manually to disarm.

I'm using one of the gerber files fabricated by pcbdirect so the wiring within the ESP8266 should be within spec. Power is supplied using a buck converter to step 12v to 3.3v on the esp8266.

Based on the code it just looks like the disarm portion is simply achieved by sending the access code down the keybus

Thank you!

I have the exact same issue, disarming a normal away arm with no issues, but after about 30 mins I cannot disarm stay and have to use the keypad to manually disarm.
