VERA 20p and ALARMDECODER APPLIANCE

[jplouch]

I just received the appliance and had it working. my alarm is currently monitored by ads pulse. The next morning i could still see the alarm status on web app but couldn't arm or disarm? any suggestions... Did ADT zap my device

[jplouch]

ADT PULSE sorry.. we are canceling ADT and migrating to the appliance

If it can read the state but not send keys, then it is usually a keypad address conflict or it is sitting on an address that the keypad is not enabled on - telnet to the appliance at port 10000 and check the configuration (send C), version (send V), and try and arm and disarm from there.

[jplouch]

ok i telnet port 10000.. how do i "send c"

[kevin]

Hit the "C" key followed by enter
for V do the same
For your arm and disarm, send 12343 followed by enter to arm and 12341 followed by enter to disarm, replace 1234 with your code

I am interested to know if it works there as well as seeing your configuration and version information

[jplouch]

Sorry I am new at this... when i hit 1 it advances... should I enter each number as t advances.. also what exactly are you looking for with the config.. version is 2.2s.8.8

[kevin]

Yeah, just ignore the advances - your keystrokes will still go through

I am interested to see the configuration mostly - the address string

[jplouch]

18&LRR=N&COM=N&EXP=NNNNN&REL=NNNN&MASK=ffffffffDEDUPLICATE=N

[jplouch]

and it does not appear to be arming

[kevin]

Something like this:

C
!>
!CONFIG>MODE=A&CONFIGBITS=ff04&ADDRESS=16&LRR=Y&COM=Y&EXP=NNNNN&REL=NNNN&MASK=ffffffff&DEDUPLICATE=N
!Reading configuration.
!UART init.
V
!VER:ffffffff,V2.2a.8.2,TX;RX;SM;VZ;RF;ZX;RE;AU;3X;CG;DD;MF;LR;KE;MK;CB;DS;ER


If you are at address 1, you should change to address 18 or something more relevant

While in telnet, you can do "CADDRESS=18" and try to arm and disarm

In my example above, I am at address 16
