Vision Security ZD2102 How to activate External Sensor

I am trying to setup a couple of ZD2102 to use with a float switch on my fish tank to alarm when the water levels are too high. The reed switch works well but I can’t get the external switch to trigger on a vera lite. On review of the manual (Oh no ... we encountered an error!)

I need to add a 0x01 parameter and set it to 0xFF

I tried to add it as a new service 0x01
0xFF

But it doesn’t seem to work. Any recommendations?

I’m surprised there were no replies as I haven’t seen the solution elsewhere - but I am new to all this.
Following on from what you said - as I had the same problem - I managed to get the external reed switch working on a Vera Plus (UI7) but not by adding a variable, instead going to “Device Options” and the “add configuration setting” adding variable 1 as a 1 byte decimal and value=255 (instead of the default 0) - saved changes then had to wake it up by taking the cover off and it worked.

This is an old post but wanted to confirm that what r4arnys posted worked for me. The documentation seemed to be clear that it was a 2 byte hex with FF as the value but that dkd not work for me…
