    Hello
    I have an Integre 128Plus connected via an ETHM 1 Plus module to Domoticz which is on an SSD from a Raspberry.
    Everything seems to be working it transmits input and output states but as you can see below I have daily errors in the logs. Sometimes I observe that the state of a detector is not transmitted properly and for example Domoticz does not turn off the light in a particular room.
    What are these errors caused by ?

    Domoticz updated to the latest version.
    Integra board updated to latest version.
    ETHM 1 Plus module updated to the latest version.

    Errors like "probably zone is not used" are normal behaviour when starting the plugin and scanning the control panel. After that, they should no longer show up until Domoticz or the plugin is restarted.

    I get errors every day.
    Today they also showed up. Log errors when connecting Domoticz to Integra 128Plus via ETHM 1 Plus on Raspberry SSD .

    I have had errors like this happen to me too.
    Do you have a username entered in the hardware configuration?
    The user szczukot, who is the author of this plugin, can tell you more about it. He is known on the domoticz forum as phantom.

    Yes, I have created a user in the integra as an administrator and his data are given in the Domoticz plugin.
    The problem is that domoticz does not always switch off the lighting in my rooms, while switching on lights or other devices works ok.

    Yes - this first error is nothing to worry about. During the first start-up, I scan what zones there are. ETHM1 does not, however, return a list of used ones, so I check all of them and store the ones that are used.
    So in total, every time the module is restarted, it will run again (but only once).
    If you say that it flies several times a day, then show the logs from the moment when these errors start flying - which is a few lines above. Because something is going on there (module or domoticz restarting?).

    At my place the errors are every day so it is normal ?

    Well, not really - this indicates a reboot of the domoticz or satel module.
    That's why we need the logs a few lines above, from the moment when the errors start flying again.

    I have just picked up one error during normal operation.

    This error also occasionally happens, and I could be wrong, but it could be related to the checksum count when, in an extremely rare situation, one of the bytes of the crc checksum has the value of synchronisation byte 0xFE.

    It is difficult to say.
    I need to get the string that was returned to such an erroneous log. That would tell more why it happened.

    ps. Unfortunately my last attempt to compile domoticz failed :( .

    As something occurs I will add since yesterday since 20 hours there is no error.

    Added after 8 [hours] 48 [minutes]: .

    Hello
    Today something showed up at 8am at 10am and at 4pm.

    But overall something less and the lighting works better and all because I wrote a topic and we started to dig into the matter.

    I've been watching what's going on with my domoticz control and I've had two situations I enter the vestibule the detector detects movement and the light didn't come on. The second time the detector detects movement and the light went so I immediately ran to the computer and took snapshots. In total, I had two such instances within a few days. I am uploading the snapshots.

    When I manage to compile domoticz, I'll add to the logs what frame comes back in case of an error - we'll be able to work out what's strange.

    Well, that would be nice, because sometimes I sleep with the domoticz switching on, and now the second time the motion detector detects movement, it only switches on.

    Are there still problems ?
    After many months I finally sat down and managed to get VS to compile Domoticz. So theoretically I can poke something in there again.

    I'll check today because I haven't looked in a long time, but the errors rather fly without changing for sure.

    Log errors continue to fly daily.

    Fellow @szczukot the topic is still relevant.

    The question is whether the integration will work with the Integra 256plus control panel ? I am planning to replace from 128 to 256.

    Yes - it will go.

    ps. I am slowly starting to withdraw from supporting Domoticz because there are still problems with "communication" with the Domoticz author.

    Thanks for the reply I know it will work so Ok.

    As for some update work it's a pity but I understand less and less people seem to be using Domoticz unfortunately I'm not likely to give it up as I have a lot done on it.

    Unfortunately, Domoticz's problem is that it has little to do with open source. There is one person in charge of the whole thing and it's hard to improve things because he is always right.
    I think this system is doomed to a quick death.

    ooo then if the policy is lying, it will indeed be bad, which means that inevitably you have to go in the direction of HA there, you understand that integration also works with Integra?

    On the HA, the integration only works with the ETHM-1 Plus. In addition, this main one hasn't been updated for ages. But there are alternatives on HACS. They allow encoding and temperature reading from Abax, which so far only Domoticz and colleague @szczukot's addon were able to do.
    For that there is a node on Nodered which works nicely and I will one day, however, rewrite everything on NR.
    I only keep Domoticz for two reasons: Integra by colleague @szczukot and archive data as it was my first smart home dashboard.

    I guess it's for these reasons too that I'll be left with a 14" touchscreen in the living room and the dashticz preview and control there. Only thing is there are a few topics missing like recuperation (@xury was supposed to move the topic for me) or reading data from the sofar inverter, or the inverter for the heater which supposedly integrates with HA.

    I am thinking of putting up a second screen in another part of the house with HA and there what I am missing in domoticz.

    So in general in HA not so easy with integration.

Topic summary

The discussion addresses recurring log errors encountered when connecting a Satel Integra 128Plus alarm control panel to Domoticz via the ETHM-1 Plus Ethernet module on a Raspberry Pi with SSD storage. Although input and output states transmit correctly, daily errors appear in Domoticz logs, sometimes causing motion detectors to fail in switching off lights. Initial errors such as "probably zone is not used" are normal during plugin startup and zone scanning but should not persist unless Domoticz or the ETHM-1 Plus module restarts frequently. The errors may indicate unexpected reboots or communication issues between Domoticz and the ETHM-1 Plus. Some errors could relate to rare checksum conflicts involving the synchronization byte (0xFE). Despite updates to Domoticz, Integra firmware, and ETHM-1 Plus module, errors continue daily. The integration is confirmed to work with the newer Integra 256Plus panel as well. However, ongoing support for Domoticz is waning due to limited development and communication challenges with its main maintainer. Alternatives such as Home Assistant (HA) offer integration with ETHM-1 Plus and additional features via HACS and Node-RED, though some specific functionalities like Abax encoding and temperature reading remain unique to Domoticz plugins. Users consider hybrid setups combining Domoticz for legacy support and HA for expanded smart home capabilities.
