2bc4 Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Have done a lot of these before but a project that I'm working on, I'm experiencing something strange. I have a ea5 with only an it100 (dsc1832) connected as client still in reno stages and want to monitor there workers. Have done all the bindings for devices. When I go onto the c4 app and open security, it shows me list of the device states only. Can not see screen that allows you to arm/disarm. Have check in composer and under navigator- security it comes up under motors and sensors. Any help would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knowitall Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 How many rooms in the project? Is the security bound to each room? RS232 binding made? Is security system programmed for the IT100- discovered/label broadcast? Wouldn't surveillance cameras be more appropriate? of course I have no idea the scope/scale of the renovation but something tells me this customer may be buying a new processor by the end of this was it existing? Thing is gonna get dirty/dusty - if not stolen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2bc4 Posted May 13, 2017 Author Share Posted May 13, 2017 Only 1 room for now. All binding done. Client has cameras as well but wants notification when system armed/disarmed. Rack is in isolated closet so not worried about dmage or dusty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knowitall Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Are you using the right driver? The IT100 powerXXXX or whatever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ichbinbose Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 I've seen random issues with the it100 on a few different projects The solution always seems to be to power cycle the it100 It's also a good example of why you still should have hard wired keypads Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2bc4 Posted May 13, 2017 Author Share Posted May 13, 2017 System does have an alarm keypad and is being monitored over lan line. Client just wanted to recieve notifications Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2bc4 Posted May 13, 2017 Author Share Posted May 13, 2017 And am using the houselogix domo driver with activation key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knowitall Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Why? The built in one works fine. Either way, My guess is the system is not bound to the security line at the room level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinegration Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 The other Dsc drivers do a bit more than the free one https://youtu.be/2NkRnfpTHuw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveControl Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 The only thing I can't seem to get on the paid drivers (and they worth the payment for the features), is when the system is armed and something trips / activates the alarm it just gives you the zone I.e. Zone 2. Would be nice if it would give you the Zone text like the key pad does. If you go to the keypad you can see it was Garage PIR for example. Its a PIA.

Cinegration Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Zone names have to be downloaded into the driver for them to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knowitall Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 You have to label them in the system and broadcast labels to the keypads/it100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveControl Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 ours does this already? Truth be told I have the other driver from HouseLogix not sure what the manufatures name is right now. Now I'll have to buy another one??? Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbir Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 The Domosapiens driver also has zone names. The zone name having likely triggered the alarm is in the LAST_ZONE_NOTREADY_NAME variable. This was introduced about a year ago in driver version 2.1.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinegration Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 I thought that was the case ;). You have to broadcast labels from an existing keypad to the it100 for it to know what the zone names are. (*8, installer code, *, 998, * to broadcast labels). The It100 is like a keypad in the system, the keypad needs know the labels for the Control4 system to 'know' the zone names. Hope that helps.
