Is the image stored somewhere or is it overwritten every time there is i new event?
If it is stored, how can I access them? If not, would it be possible to store them for a custom number of days?
In The advanced settings in my pan and til camera there is an option for “always on”, what does it mean? Also in the same view, could you please explain what all The other information is?
The image is overwritten on every event. You can access the image in a flow (image tag on the device) and you can send that to a different service e.g. slack/whatsapp/telegram/NAS
The always on means you cannot turn your camera off. I have my Pan&tilt set to off when I’m home. So the lens is turned. But when i’m away the camera will go on again. With the always-on you prevent the camera from turning off. eg. when you accidentally click the button.
The other info in the Pan & Tilt window:
General settings:
Always on: see explanation above
Use generic alarm: this will turn on the motion_alarm when theres movement/person detection/sound detection. This will also set the zone to active. If you don’t want to use this zone activity you can turn it off
Hub settings:
Hub name: The name of the camera in Eufy
P2P_DID: used for peer-to-peer between your camera and Homey
ACTOR_ID: user id which is needed for the P2P connection
STATION_SN: this is the serial number of your device. Needed to make requests to different API’s
DSK_KEY: used to get a public connection between Eufy and Homey if a local connection is not possible. Could be used for Homey Cloud
Reset settings: when you tick this box and hit save the above details will be fetched again from the Eufy servers
Ik heb het eufy alarmsysteem met de homebase 2. De sensoren en de homebase kan ik toevoegen in homey. Het probleem waar ik tegenaan loop is dat ik de homebase niet kan bedienen vanuit de homey app. Als ik bijvoorbeeld de beveiligingsmodus wil veranderen krijg ik een time out 3000ms melding. Ook flows die de wijziging van de beveiligingsmodus gebruiken, werken niet.
Ik heb het volgende al geprobeerd:
IP adres van de homebase in de homey app veranderd
Nieuw account aangemaakt (had ik al gedaan, maar nog een nieuwe) met admin rechten en gedeelde apparaten
meldingen in eufy app aangezet, ook voor homebase.
One more question about this. I read in the app’s description that a secondary “admin” account with a separate email address needs to be created for the Homey App. It’s not possible to exclude the push notifications for individual sensors from my main account which is logged in my phone’s app?
What you can do:
Create another extra account. But don’t share the sensors. Use that account to login to the official Eufy app. Then you won’t get notifications in Eufy but you do receive them in Homey
