Question
Hi guys, I installed PAI yesterday and everything works fine. I would like to insert the code when I disarm from the alarm card. I tried different procedures I read on open issues but nothing worked for Me. Now I can arm and disarm from the alarm card but no code is asked. Adding the “default code” parameter does not have any effect. I’m running ha 2024.6.4 Could you please help Me?
Logs (if required)
Anyone can help me? I'm still able to arm/disarm but I would like to insert the code for disarming.
Tried this?
MQTT_HOMEASSISTANT_CODE?
Yes. I tried that yesterday and this is the behavior: if I set `MQTT_HOMEASSISTANT_CODE': "9999" but I don't set the parameter "default code" the keypad appears in the card but returns the error "Validation error: Arming requires a code but none was given ". As soon as I set it everything works but the keypad disappear.
I need to check myself as I have no clue what is going on with this new HomeAssistant releases. I am still on 2024.05.x version.

Thank you!
I'm also having this same problem after upgrading to HA 2024.7.1
Using PAI 3.4.1

For the moment I used alarmo custom card to bypass the problem using an automation that invoke the arm/disarm process on pai. But is a workaround to avoid someone disarm without code which is not safe. I'm waiting @yozik04 to test it on Ha last release. Finger crossed.
I believe I found a solution: for each partition, edit the partition entity and insert any value into Default code.
I have checked myself and I do not see any problems: MQTT_HOMEASSISTANT_CODE = '12345' To arm and disarm it asks for password. Specifying wrong password does not allow to arm or disarm. I need more details what exactly does not work.

I don't know why but now it works only if I don't fill the option default code:
MQTT_HOMEASSISTANT_CODE = '12345' is set correctly.
Anyway now it works. Thanks for the support!

Hm. I do not have this setting in my pai.conf. To arm and disarm any partition, HA doesn't ask me for a code. And it works.
But what I do have is PASSWORD = xxxx set in pai.conf.
The problem appears to be in HomeAssistant and not in PAI. It seems they added a validation to require that "Default code" which (in @lucky5822 case and mine) is actually NOT required.
Simply entering anything in "Default code" fixes the problem. I did not entered my password in that setting. I typed "12345".
Maybe you use some old PAI 2.x. You can always add settings in pai.conf if you need.

I am Running Paradox Alarm IP150 Interface (Version 3.50) with MQTT in two locations. Everything has been running fine until I upgraded to HA 20224.6.0 and all subsequent releases. If I downgrade to 2024.5.5 everything returns to normal.
In the current version I dont use a code to arm or disarm.
As soon as I update HA I get an error saying that no code is provided and it wont arm.
Have tried adding a code into MQTT_HOMEASSISTANT_CODE = but it doesnt show a keypad and nothing I have tried works.
I am happy to use a keypad if required as I probabaly should but anything that would work would be helpful.
I don't use code and it works fine. ..._CODE is not defined in settings and no default code in partition settings in HA. I assume you use ..._AUTODISCOVERY If you have same settings and it still does not work. Try deleting all mqtt topics for PAI in autodiscovery. Maybe you have a conflict from previous version (2.x). No other ideas at the moment. It should work.
I tried deleting all the mqtt topics….Yes Auto discovery is on. Works fine on 2024.5.5 but as soon as I upgrade it gives the following error.
Failed to call service alarm_control_panel/alarm_arm_away. Validation error: Arming requires a code but none was given for alarm_control_panel.area_1
Reading on line I see a number of other alarm interfaces are having issues with the current versions so Im not sure the problem is the PAI interface directly but something has changed in HA ?
