New to Fibaro and I am missing the alarm in the creation of Scenes in the box style....It is there in the easy create....but not the box style....did I check the wrong box somewhere?

Can you explain what exactly you're trying to do? As I understand you use block scene, right?

I am trying to use block scene to arm my alarm at a certain time everyday at night.  The arm is not visible to choose....like in the wizard.

If you're using Fibaro Alarm, there is no straight forward way to activate it in block scene.

You have two choices:

1. To set arm/disarm all necessary sensors in block scene

2. To create Lua scene and to execute HTTP command to arm/disarm alarm and run it from block scene

I believe that you know by arming alarm all sensors are armed. Usually when you at home you want to arm only specific sensors, for example motion sensors in rooms should not be armed.

 

Let me know if you need more info

Hi, how do you disarm a sensor ? I'm trying to build a blockscene that when two smartphones are moving away from home (using geofencing) to activate the alarm.  I'm doing so by arming (inschakelen in Dutch) the related sensors and I can see the alarm is activated.  However, I seems to be unable to disarm the alarm by disarming (uitschakelen in Dutch) the sensor. 

 

Anybody did this before ?

 

Many thanks,
