Is it possible to program a zwave device to disarm the alarm state? - I see in the specs for zwave3 UCM it specifically calls out the ability to arm, but doesn\'t mention disarming...
The reason? - one of the main drivers for looking at zwave (I haven\'t got any yet, but I\'m seriously considering it) is to implement a smart front door lock that integrates into the overall system... so-called \"smart\" locks are quite popular here in Norway, but every one I\'ve seen for sale is a standalone product (e.g Yale Doorman et al) that has either codepad and/or fingerprint tech, and some have associated mobile apps). Nothing I\'ve seen off the shelf so far looks like it would be easy to integrate with Comfort, and that, frankly, rules it out of my consideration, and SWMBO had a major objection too, that being entering a PIN number to open the front door, then immediately having to enter another PIN on the keypad to disarm Comfort... (which would very likely be the same PIN number!)
I therefore suggested to SWMBO it should be possible to get a \"smart\" lock that can be the sole point of identity authentication, such that authenticating oneself at the front door could also serve to disarm Comfort.. this assumes that we are confident/satisfied in the level of security provided by the smart lock...
So I am wondering if a zwave doorlock can be used, which when opened will signal status to the zwave network, and consequently to Comfort... and that this can be taken as satisfactory authentication to disarm the alarm state...
cheers.
