No Delay in HA Automations

Open dalethomas opened this issue 2 years ago • 8 comments

I have been able to successfully create an automation that turns puts the alarm into Away Mode when I or my wife leaves the house. However, when I return and enter the house there is no delay and immediately the alarm is set off. I have confirmed this doesn't happen if I use the Alarm.com app to put the alarm in Away mode.

Below is a screenshot of the automation in HA. Any ideas what is causing this?

What do your Alarm.com integration settings look like?

  1. In Settings -> Devices & Services, click on Configure in the Alarm.com integration card. image
  2. Click "Next" to get to the Arming Mode Profiles modal. Is No Entry Delay checked for Arm Away?

I am having the same issue although mine apparently started over a week ago, likely when I last updated the integration. I checked my arming settings and they were all set as No Entry Delay, even though I did not change these settings. Seems like there might be a regression which is causing these to get set by default when updating, I'm guessing from #213 which appears to add the no entry delay option and migrates to a new config version.

Had the same issue. Updated recently and was greeted with the siren when opening the door. "No Entry Delay" was checked on all arming options, which had previously been unchecked.

Can you try again with v3.0.1?

I don't believe I can test this since I am running HAOS Supervised. If there is a way to do this through the Supervised OS I'd be happy to test.

You can upgrade to the latest release through HACS, supervised or not.

Just upgraded from 2.x to 3.x a week or so ago and can confirm the 'No Entry Delay' check boxes WERE selected for each mode (Stay, Away, Night). These were NOT selected in 2.x. Scared the cr@p out of our dog sitter, has terrorized my wife - though fortunately we were able to prevent police from visiting. I've unselected and saved the config. 🤞 it stays. Love this integration - just not the immediate / unexpected alarm trigger.

Is this still an issue?

If so, do you run into the same problem when arming the system manually through Home Assistant?
