Node red - 111rdw - 10-28-2025

I have just set up the comfort/HA addon and with a little help from hear have it working nicely. I am now trying to explore what I can and cannot do. I am wondering if it is possible to trigger the alarm on and off using node red. I've been trying to replicate the automation for remote arming. I can send messages to the alarm via mqtt and they appear when I monitor it with mqtt explorer. But cannot get it to turn on. (or off). Any thoughts on a) is this possible and b) what message do I need to send.

Setting the MQTT Alarm Control Panel in Home Assistant would be the easiest way.
