Vista 20P Keyfob Zones not reporting via EVL 4

Post by gijosh28 »

Hi,

Does the Envisalink EVL 4 report for the key fob zones, or any zones that I have configured for my key fobs?

Basically I would like to use my key fobs to run scenes from ST or my Hubitat. I use all eight loops on the key fob (each connected to a separate zone) to run different things. One button disarms the alarm unlocks the front door, and turns on those lights. Another disarms the alarm unlocks the garage door and opens the right garage door. Another disarms the alarm, unlocks the garage door and opens the left garage door. Etc. But I need the EVL 4 to report that those zones triggered momentary with the press of the key fob button. I have 5 key fobs with 8 button combinations on each. All in all I have 40 zones dedicated the key fob buttons. However, I do not see the EVL-4 reporting on any of those zones. What am I doing wrong? Has anyone else made this (or something similar) work?

Thanks,
Josh

In case anyone was wondering on the answer to this, it is no, only zones up to 48 are reported

Incidentally, here I am again, trying to figure out if this has been solved yet. Does anyone have a way to let hubitat or SmartThings know when one of the keyfob buttons has been pressed?

What appears on the keypad when you press the FOB? Is there an event in your Eyezon event list?
