Shivam Paw Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Is it not possible to program something to happen when an incorrect code is entered on the C4 DS2 Door Station? I can't seem to find it anywhere within programming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shivam Paw Posted October 5, 2017 Author Share Posted October 5, 2017 If user code 1 is entered then open gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegreatheed Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 I don't see an option for that either. You could some programming on the other button presses with logic and MAYBE approximate that event. If button 1 is pressed >>start (restart) 20 second timer >>set variable to true (repeat for each button) If usercode 1 is entered >>set variable to false >>other programming when timer expires >>if variable is true >>>>(this would be the incorrect code event, send notification or whatever here) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shivam Paw Posted October 6, 2017 Author Share Posted October 6, 2017 Seems like a really long way for a simple problem I’d need the event to run immediately after an incorrect code is entered so that timer might not work well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does seem overly complex... You could, however, make it even more complicated and achieve your desired result based on what @thegreatheed suggested by doing something like the following: If button 1 is pressed >>KeyCount = KeyCount+1>>start (restart) 20 second timer>>set variable to true(repeat for each button)If usercode 1 is entered>>set variable to false>>other programmingwhen timer expires >>KeyCount = 0 When KeyCount changes >>If KeyCount = 4>>>>if variable is true>>>>>>(this would be the incorrect code event, send notification or whatever here) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shivam Paw Posted January 7, 2018 Author Share Posted January 7, 2018 When entering smtp email details in the driver properties via HE is it supposed to be sending emails straight away without me programming anything? I've noticed that snapshot emails are being sent without me actually adding any code via programming to send snapshot emails...any ideas? I've checked the browser based configuration and in automation this is all I found but I have no ideas what on earth it is doing.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Africa C4 user Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Yes once this is enabled it will send every time the bell is pressed. You don't need it enabled to send snapshots via programming (note: I am basing my comments on my setup which was done via the driver properties rather than the web interface).

Shivam Paw Posted January 8, 2018 Author Share Posted January 8, 2018 Is it possible to remove the code for sending a snapshot when the button is pressed? Or what about having different messages sent for different events? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Africa C4 user Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 From memory (as I am on the beach and nowhere near my system!), answering your questions in order: 1. Yes. 2. No (not natively) but yes with another driver. To turn off the 'on call' snapshot email you simply disable this in driver properties. You can still send snapshot emails via code (but not - when I last played with this a year or so ago - with different messages). I think that you can attach the photo to an email using a third party driver (e.g. @alanchow's notification suite (which is an awesome driver) - then you can change the message for different events).

I know I was able to stop it and still have the ability to send an email via code... Albeit that was some time ago before I started using Alan's driver for emails with photos attached.

Looks like I’ll be waiting for you. I’ve had another look and looked at all the options in the documentation. but can’t find anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Africa C4 user Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Sorry! I thought that I answered this a couple of days ago! I had a quick look at the driver over the weekend and (from memory, I think) how I handled this was to set the option to use the call button for programming only. Then in the programming, I forced the video intercom call (to get the call button working again but without the email). I am pretty sure that is what I was doing but bear in mind this was a year or more back as I now don’t use the doorbell email functionality but rather use Alan’s driver for emailing snapshots.
