Before submitting this form

  • I have checked that this sensor type was not suggested for addition before; I know that it could
    be in open or closed issues, and if there was another issue mentioning this sensor type I could
    simply comment in it instead

  • I have updated the <sensor type> mention in the title of the issue, but left the issue title
    as it was otherwise

  • I understand that if I want to suggest the addition of more than a single sensor type, I need
    to file that form for each separate type

Sensor type

Qolsys Z Wave Siren

Home Assistant device class

Siren

Does the panel send sensor status updates?

  • Yes, I can see the Open/Close messages (I have been able to capture ZONE_ACTIVE messages)
  • No, it seems to only tell us the sensor exists, but never update its state

Sensor data from an INFO message

I should mention it shows up in the other z-wave devices, not the normal z-wave window, on the iq4

Hello! The type seems to be Z-Wave Siren from your pasted INFO message, is that accurate ?
I do need to know also if it translates status or if it's just a dummy device when using through Control4 !

Have you been able to trigger and confirm that there's ZONE_ACTIVE messages appearing for the Siren ?
