Thanks for both of yours inputs, I will look over What sensor I do need to triggar the alarm and not, and first start loggning if I do get any false triggats. ---

Is there a possibility to select “Night” to activate Heimdall ands make settings for the option “Night”? This option is available in Homekit but not in Homey. In homey you have 3 options: Armed, Disarmed & Partially armed. The same button in Homekit: Home, Away, Night, Off I like to make a difference between Partially Armed and Night. ![IMG_1159](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/d/d/ddc8035f3b06d2957573aba887e75a4ceff88db4.jpeg) ---

Hi Rob, that’s not possible, like you say Homey only offers the **Disarmed** , **Partially Armed** and **Armed** modes and _ **Heimdall** _ uses that. So to get an extra mode you would have to submit a feature request at Athom. That said, _ **Heimdall** _ does offer flowcards to dynamically add/remove sensors from **Surveillance Modes** maybe you can do something with those cards under certain conditions to get the desired behaviour. ---

Hi Danee, Thanks for the answer. I was not aware the functionality of the Heimdall button which is visible in Homekit is managed by Athom. I thought it was part of the Heimdall app. I know that I can flow cards to solve my request. But when I saw the button: Night/Nacht in Homekit I was curious where I find the settings for this in the app or flow cards. But it’s clear, there aren’t any. 😅 ---

Hi Rob, It’s not really the _ **Heimdall** _ **Surveilance Mode Switch** that’s visible in Homekit, it’s a separate device created by Apple to handle the modes and they decided on 4 different modes. Athom is responsible for the 3 modes in Homey, I use these modes in _ **Heimdall** _ and a developer on the Homeykit App mapped the modes from Homey to the (4) Modes of Apple Homekit. When that part of the Homeykit App was written we discussed how to map the 3 modes from Homey to the 4 modes in Homekit and the outcome is how it is now. I’ve never used Homeys built-in (experimental) Homekit integration so I have no idea how that is handled. ---

Hi Danee, I do not make use of the builtin Homekit for Homey but I make use of Homeykit app. But it is clear to me. Thanks for your answer. 😌 ---

Hi Danee, I’m working with the Ring keypad and created a flow with notification who has entered the pin and what is done. But I miss the variable user name. I only can notify which pincode was entered. Is it possible to extend this with a variable username? ---

Hi Rob, Can you please show your flow? The _ **Ring Security** _ app isn’t aware of users as user management is done in _ **Heimdall** _ so when using a trigger card from that app there is no username available only the PIN entered. When using a trigger card from _ **Heimdall** _ the reason it isn’t possible (yet?) is described in the Ring Security App post [here](https://community.homey.app/t/ring-security-extend-heimdall-with-ring-security-products/47287/23). ---

[https://homey.app/f/oBztJJ](https://homey.app/f/oBztJJ) I use the Ring Security flow and not Heimdall. I also read the post you send me and I understand the issue. Thanks for you response. Rob ---

Setting the “hours no information”, when using “No information received” card, to a value larger than 24 hours doesn’t seem to work. I have 23 contact sensors so I would rather have them report on a weekly basis rather than daily. Is that not possible? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/2/6/268b2b9e7e852fc1e1156e6086d2249db998982d.jpeg) ---

Hi, I am trying to do a special flow. I found a way to check all door sensors. If one or more of them is in alarm state i want to be notified with the name of the sensor or the zone. Is it possible to perform that ? Thanks… ---

@DaneedeKruyff Some guy told me to check out with Heimdall > [@Array of door sensors -\> filter -\> notif i any open by name](https://community.homey.app/t/array-of-door-sensors-filter-notif-i-any-open-by-name/53754/9): > > If this is working for you and you just want to know the status of all sensors, you can add them using tags in your message field, if you just want to get a list of sensors that are triggered you need some other logic in the AND field probably (not sure, cause i can’t see the code ou are using to check) ---

Maybe put it in the right context would help 😉 I answered your first question that you want to check if sensors are triggered and Heimdall is a fine way to do that, i use the functionality to check if all windows are closed when i leave the house. What you described afterwards is something else, no clue if you can also accomplish that with Heimdall, but you can do that using flows for sure. ---

But just tested it for you, and it is even possible with Heimdall, you just need 2 flows. ![1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/6/3/6349a137ee10ede52a14eab5f135d4743567e774.jpeg) ![2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/f/af7054ca9635894881e3ddd4f6826cb1e6fb8fe8.jpeg) And ofcourse change the When card in flow 1 to the “button is pressed” of your button You will now get push notificatons (1 per device that is triggered, and it will put them on the notifications list in homey, but you can also send messages to Telegram, logs, signal, whatsapp etc, depending on what you want ---

Why not? Based on what you descibed you want a list of sensors that are triggered if you press a button, that is exactly what this flow does. If that is not what you are looking for maybe ry to explain what exactly you want to accomplish, pretty sure someone can come up with a solution. ---

@Chris_nl is right, this is the way to do this with _ **Heimdall** _, if this doesn’t fit your use case it’s off topic here and I ask you kindly to discuss this in the initial topic.
