CREATING A RULE FOR MEDICAL ALARM

[Robert Little]

I have a health issue that may prevent me from making a call to 911 or using the keypad to press my F1 (medical) button.  I have incorporated Alexa and my automation system to “press: F1 on my Elk gold and unlock exterior doors.  However I need to be able to shut off the keypad alarm after say 5 minutes and reset the system to “ready to arm”.  I was able to keep the alarm siren from sounding by setting the siren duration to 2 seconds (thanks Chris).  I tried to write a rule but cannot find the correct combination of statements.  Any help would be great!  Thanks!!!!!

Please try the following:

Whenever Medical Alarm In My Home (Area 1) TURNS ON

Then Turn Output 3 on for 5 Minutes (or use any unused Output)

 

Whenever Output 3 Turns OFF

And The Medical Alarm in My Home (Area 1) is Active

Then Arm My Home (Area 1) To Stay Immediately

Then Disarm My Home (Area 1) Immediately

Thanks, again Brad!
