Component to integrate with SIA, based on CheaterDev's version.

This component will set up the following platforms.

WARNING

This integration may be unsecure. You can use it, but it's at your own risk. This integration was tested with Ajax Systems security hub only. Other SIA hubs may not work.

Platform Description
binary_sensor A smoke or moisture sensor.
alarm_control_panel Alarm panel with the state of the alarm.
sensor Sensor with the last heartbeat message from your system.

Features

  • Alarm tracking with a alarm_control_panel component
  • Optional Fire/gas tracker
  • Optional Water leak tracker
  • AES-128 CBC encryption support

Hub Setup(Ajax Systems Hub example)

  1. Select "SIA Protocol".
  2. Enable "Connect on demand".
  3. Place Account Id - 3-16 ASCII hex characters. For example AAA.
  4. Insert Home Assistant IP adress. It must be visible to hub. There is no cloud connection to it.
  5. Insert Home Assistant listening port. This port must not be used with anything else.
  6. Select Preferred Network. Ethernet is preferred if hub and HA in same network. Multiple networks are not tested.
  7. Enable Periodic Reports. The interval with which the alarm systems reports to the monitoring station, default is 1 minute. This component adds 30 seconds before setting the alarm unavailable to deal with slights latencies between ajax and HA and the async nature of HA.
  8. Encryption is on your risk. There is no CPU or network hit, so it's preferred. Password is 16 ASCII characters. {% if not installed %}

Installation

  1. Click install.
  2. Add at least the minimum configuration to your HA configuration, see below.

Configuration options

Key Type Required Description
port int True Port that SIA will listen on.
account string True Hub account to track. 3-16 ASCII hex characters. Must be same, as in hub properties.
encryption_key string False Encoding key. 16 ASCII characters. Must be same, as in hub properties.
ping_interval int True Ping interval in minutes that the alarm system uses to send "Automatic communication test report" messages, the HA component adds 30 seconds before marking a device unavailable. Must be between 1 and 1440 minutes, default is 1.
zones int True The number of zones present for the account, default is 1.
additional_account bool True Used to ask for additional accounts in multiple steps during setup, default is False.

ASCII characters are 0-9 and ABCDEF, so a account is something like 346EB and the encryption key is the same but 16 characters.
