Re: Envisalink - TPI Documentation

Keybus Transmit Buffer Overrun means that the API already has data queued for the panel when this new command came in. So it is busy.

Try slowing down your commands to the API. The DSC key-bus is VERY slow, and was meant for human interactive timings, not M2M.

Re: API to add Zone labels and Partition labels

Hello, Is there a way to programmatically enter zone labels and partition labels into the Evnisalink web forms? I am working on a driver for Hubitat that pulls the Zone and Partition labels from a DSC alarm, and would like to be able to automatically update the Envisalink zone and partition labels ...

Re: Can't find EVL4 on my network. Same WAN and LAN ip!

None of what you are saying is true. Your two switches ARE NOT on the same network as they are seperated by the NAT router. No DHCP traffic will go through the router nor will any local traffic. The only traffic that will go from your router's LAN switch to the one you installed on your modem, is ...

Re: Can't find EVL4 on my network. Same WAN and LAN ip!

I have two switches and nearly 2 dozen devices and never had this issue with any of them. I think you're missing a major difference in how your switches are connected. Yes you probably have had many devices connected to a switch but that switch was connected to your ROUTER, not your MODEM. This is ...

Re: EVL4 firmware problem

The newer versions of firmware for DSC EVL4 removes features that some people still use/want so engineering wont update them automatically. Also, Envisacor doesn't have a way of rolling back the firmware for versions past 1.4.176 so we didn't want to give users this option as we'd have no way of ...

Re: new evl4 firmware? 1.05.208

We're not sure what the issue is but it seems a reboot fixes all issues with the "socket closed" error. It is possible the firmware update left the TPI socket in an unknown state but this would be something in RAM so a reboot (software/hardware) will fix it. We have found an issue with the login ...

Re: EVL TPI not reporting zone battery state, Home Assistant integration suffers

There has been no request for this feature, ever. We can certainly do it but Home Assistant isn't registered as a developer so I have no one to contact there. If you know who the contact is with their company tell them to contact support@envisacor.com and register as a developer, and they will get ...

Re: EVL4 UNO as zone-expander-over-IP

I'd like to be able to use an EVL4 UNO as a remote zone expander for my DSC panel. By that I mean connect a wired sensor to an EVL4 UNO, have the EVL4 UNO communicate the wired sensor's status over the LAN to a second EVL4 connected to the DSC panel, and have the wired sensor appear as a zone on ...

Re: EVL 4, DSC and lost installer code - hacking my own system

Yeah, MikeP has it right. You can't go into installers mode with the panel armed. You need to disarm all partitions on DSC systems to enter installers mode.

Re: Zone change events missing in TPI interface

That's an old bug that was introduced back in 1.2.145 (~2018). It only surfaces if you have one zone opening and closing, that's why it sailed through automated testing without being detected. The bug was in 1.3.164 too. It's fixed in pre-release 1.4.185 which will not be formally released as its ...
