Create an Alarm Panel¶

If you don't already have an alarm panel, set up a default manual as below, which creates the state machine for armed/disarmed status. This is all you need in the way of alarm support for AutoArm to function.

You can also choose whether a PIN code is needed or not to arm or disarm. AutoArm has its own delay time handling for buttons, so recommended to keep the times at zero if not needed for any other purposes.

alarm_control_panel:
  - platform: manual
    name: Home Alarm Control
    code_arm_required: false
    arming_time: 0
    delay_time: 0
    disarm_after_trigger: false
    trigger_time: 0

This can then be added to AutoArm like, notice how the name is made lower case and spaces replaced with underscores to create an entity_id.

autoarm:
  alarm_panel:
    entity_id: alarm_panel.home_alarm_control
