cam Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Issue When my Elk M1 gold is armed and a zone becomes violated, my ISY notification does not display which zone was violated. I receive the alert, but none of the Elk-specific details are populated when the notification is sent (except for the area name). Hardware/Software ISY994izw running latest production version (v4.5.1) Elk M1 Gold ISY Elk Module Burglar Notification Program If Elk Area 'House' 'Alarm State' is Burglar Alarm Then Send Notification to 'text' content 'burglary' Notification (Custom Content) Subject: Intrusion Alarm - ${elk.zone.#.name} Body: ${alert.control} - ${elk.area.#.alarmState} - ${alert.control} ${alert.action} - ${elk.zone.#.name} - ${elk.zone.#.status} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G W Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I don't understand. Are you asking a question? S.A.T.T.P. Best regards, Gary Funk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cam Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 I thought my question was clear in the Issue section but for clarity: Question After reviewing my program and custom notification <above>, why doesn't the ISY/Elk populate the zone name which caused the violation? Note I have ~150 zones (about 100 of them are door/window/motion sensors). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G W Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I read your statements and I thought you were giving code that worked. S.A.T.T.P. Best regards, Gary Funk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottmichaelj Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 This is because the Elk module for ISY is half assed. Not all the options are available in the Elk ISY module that are in the Elk. I been complaining about this for a while. /end rant The solution is to use the Elk to send the notifications to you via the rules section. Pushover works well. You just need to use the XEP. If you need more help let me know and Ill help you drill down further specific to the zone and programs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWareman Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 I had to create a seperate notification rule for each zone.... A pain to be sure, but you only have to do it once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberk Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 I've added every variable there was to add...none of them gives me the zone...you're not alone here. Mwareman has the correct solution for the ISY and Scott has an easier solution to implement. There may be a way to hack this with the network module and REST but I'm no where near even being a novice with REST so I can't answer that with any certainty. I use prowl for my notifications, prowl allows messages sent via email to a prowl created email address, to be pushed to iOS.

G W Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Since I've been playing with the Elk for the past few weeks, I've been thinking a lot about the why and how of integration into the ISY. ISY 5.0 will add a lot and I have hopes that will allow a lot more communication between the El and ISY. I think this will offer a better solution to be developed. B.R.I.A.D.A.

Best regards, Gary Funk I hope I am wrong but more functions need to be added to the ISY Elk module. If you compare the rule list on the Elk side vs the ISY side there are a lot of items missing. This has to be improved on the UDI module. This also brings me back to SSL port that still hasn't been fixed either and its now been over a year.

giesen Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 You can get the zone, you just have to create a separate notification per zone. Yeah it sucks, but until UDI improves the notification system in the ISY that's really the only option for sending the zone. I don't think Node server will help unless it had its own notification system. Sent from my SM-N910W8 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
