ARM alarm when noone present
Need Answer
Hi,
I want to automatically arm the alarm when all persons left the house, but cant get it to work. I've defined some virtul switches for every habitant for presence detection based on wifi connection of their mobiles, this part seems to work fine. Furthermore i've created a rule to set alarm mode to ARM-AWAY in case all of these are inactive, but i'm getting an error message in the alarm, kind of showing the rule is not authenticated to turn on the alarm.
What do I need to change to make this work ?
Thx,
Max
No connection
Real-time notifications may not work
Solved it myself - Had to enable "Quick arm" for the alarm partition, now it is working fine.

Can you tell me how did you link the virtual switch with the corresponding person?

I am also very interested how you configured the presence detection based on wifi connection. The wifi connection is made to a router, so how do you get the information to the Zipabox?

sorry, i wasnt notified about your questions. In fact i'm not using this anymore as it is not as reliable as i'd like it to be. Basically i was pinging the mobile phones of the users once a minute from some Raspberry and updated a virtual switch using curl. if they are there the corresponding person is there as well, as (at least here) none of us leaves without this phone. This worked fine for android devices, but i was not able to get it to work reliable for iOS devices as these go into sleep after a while. There are some hints on other forums about pinging a specific port to wake them up, but this doesnt work either.
Something similar as I did it can be found here, unfortunately in german: http://zipabox.de/connection-tracking-nmap-mit-der-zipabox-beta/

Actually I found a working solution. Search the forum for Tasker and you find it.
