| Texecom alarm panel with ComIP/SmartCom | Partly works | Sensors and armed state update; HomeKit stays on 'Arming', arming unsupportedSaved copyI have the same issue. I have a ComIP on COM 1 set to Crestron, and a SmartCOM on COM 2 and 3 set to SmartCOM and ComIP respectively. All of the sensors trigger brilliantly, and super fast. I can see the armed/disarmed state of the alarm. But if I try to arm it, it just sits on "Arming…" or "Disarming…", and the alarm going off doesn't trigger a notification.

| Texecom panel via Pi Zero 2W SmartCom emulation | Requested | Plugin returns invalid data from emulated ComIP interfaceSaved copyHi, Been working with someone on a Texecom forum to replicate the comIP/ SmartCom interface using a Pi Zero. In short it works fine and can connect to wintex via ser2net and can test creston works connecting to IP:10001 typing ASTATUS but when I change the homebrige plugin to call up this new IP it get invalid data (after it connects). Appreciate this is way over and above you original intent, but this would also people to not need to buy a smart com or comIP and just buy a pi zero. https://www.diynot.com/diy/threads/texecom-jal-0001-comport-digi-modem-port-pinout.630177/page-5 Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-22. | Issue #603 · 2024-09 |
