Scene adressing lots of devices but without using "devices group"


Question

Posted

Hi,

 

I use two different scenes to arm my alarm system. One arms only Door/Windows-Sensors and the other one arms everything (incl. motion sensors).

 

In one of the past software versions (now I am on 4.037) the system notified if one sensor could not be armed (e.g. because it was breached). Notification came no matter if armed with alarm panel or with one of my scenes.

Since a few versions I get notification if armed with alarm panel but not with my scenes.

 

As I only arm with one of my scenes missing notifications are a problem.

I want to make a scene like: IF sensor 1 is breached AND gets armed THEN send push notification to iphone.

 

If I use a device group (like "device group" is "armed and breached" THEN "send push") the system wants ALL of the devices in this group to have this state. It is not working if it is only one sensor (in the group) breached.

 

Does anybody have an idea?

You do not need to use a "device group", you can address each device individually, right ? Or is there something that I don't get. Don't see the problem. Using a group of devices has certain consequences. If you don't want these then do not use a group but make a separate line for every device ?

    You are absolutely right. But because I have about 20 door/window sensor it would be a lot work to do it for each one, like:

    - sensor 1 is breached AND gets armed THEN send push notification to iphone

    OR

    - sensor 2 is breached AND gets armed THEN send push notification to iphone

    OR

    - sensor 3 is breached AND gets armed THEN send push notification to iphone

     

    ... and so on.

     

    So I am looking for a way to make it easier
