Hello,

Thanks for this integration. I use it in France without problems.

My alarm system is comprised of motion detectors + shock detectors (sensors on each door and window that will trigger an alarm if someone tries to open) + smoke detectors.

Each of those devices has an integrated thermometer, which is recognized by the integration. The only difficulty is to be able to map the devices in HA (since HA only shows serial numbers, which Sector Alarm app hides), but customer service was helpful.

Beside temperature, I believe the integration would be helpful with the actual motion detectors and shock detectors.

  • Motion detectors: trigger an event when movement is detected, and log movement as a binary sensor.
  • Shock detectors: log open/close state as a binary sensor

I'm pretty sure the API provides that information, because it's available in the app.

What do you think?

Hi, glad to hear it works for you!

As far as your request goes:

  • Motion sensor: this is only active as the system i armed and I’ve yet to see any relevant attribute for it in the API. However you should’ve an entity called ”Alarm” which should trigger should it detect motion as the system is armed.
  • Shock sensors will most likely work without a problem, however as I don’t have them myself it’s hard to figure out the potential endpoints. If you could extract a HAR file as you visit the regular webinterface and watch the status of the sensors we should be able to figure out the relevant endpoints.
