Intermittent problem DSC Alarm Zone staying Tripped after upgrade to 1.7.830

Plugins & Plugin Development DSC Alarm System
#1

After upgrading to 1.7.830 I have been experiencing intermittent problems with motion zones remaining tripped in VERA when they are not actually tripped if I look at the DSC panel.

I’m using the EYEZ-ON EVL-3 Envisalink.

Is anyone else experiencing any issues or have any suggestions?

I’m still having this issue. Has anyone else seen similar behaviour and managed to fix it?

I suspect it may be network-related. The same thing we discussed in this thread: http://forum.micasaverde.com/index.php/topic,16440.0.html

You might try creating a scene with the luup to resync with the alarm, and run it the next time you see a zone staying tripped to confirm. Note the bizarre data corruption issue on UI4 - so backup your Vera before you run it just in case… But no ill effects on UI5…

Thanks for the workaround! I’m intrigued as to why this would only start occurring after a Vera firmware upgrade but I’ve followed the suggestion in the above threat and created a Scene which runs every 15 minutes to re-sync the alarm system states with the LUA code

luup.call_action("urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:DSCAlarmPanel1", "SendCommand", {Command="001"}, <device>)

I’m running Vera 3 Firmware 1.7.902, DSC Plugin Version 0.40 and it hasn’t crashed anything. I’ll have to wait and see if the intermittent problem is solved but so far so good!
