@Andrea_M Thank you for sharing your experience. I go find a shop.
Hi Danee,
Is it possible to get a third section?
I want use a standalone section for the garage.
Hello @Herby
Iâm not entirely sure what you mean with a third section, I guess you mean an extra Surveillance Mode. If so, thatâs mentioned int the FAQ:
Q: There are only three Surveillande Modes , Disarmed , Partially Armed and Fully Armed . I think I need more, can I add some?
A: No, three Surveillance Modes will be enough. You are are able to add and remove devices to/from a Surveillance Mode from a flow, making the combination of Armed zones unlimited. See this post how to do that.
You can create 2 modes with Virtual Device app. One for your garage and another for your home.
Combine it with Heimdall in your flow.
Hi Danee, seit ca. 3 Jahren bin ich âaufâ Homey. Seit ca. 3 Monaten bin ich auf Heimdall; Mann, bist Du gut!!! Vielen Dank, AtomiumMani

If you could please keep the conversation in English as much as possible, then more people will be able to participate. If you would rather not or canât communicate in English then please check out Non-English boards/catregories:

Thank you very much!
I have 3 cameras, all show in the Heimdal settings under devices. Theyâre triggering their own flows where they are in the When⌠but Heimdal isnât logging anything for them so I canât use Heimdal at all. Anyone any ideas?
There can be several different reasons for this. Can you please post some screen shots:
- The Devices - State page from Heimdall
- The Devices - Settings page from Heimdall
- A flow that does trigger on movement detected by one of the cameras.
Also, please post the brand of the camera and the App youâre using for it.
Continuing the discussion from Heimdall - Let Homey watch over your home:
Hi at all.
I used Heimdall also on Homekit with app Homeykit for a long time, but after last Homey firmware upgrade v.5 this not works anymore. I need to have a way to say to Apple home if surveillance is on or off. Are any way to have the same service through Homey Homekit Experimental or with any other app?
Thanks
Iâve just tested this, for me the mode of the Surveillance device in Homekit changes when I chance the Surveillance Mode in Homey. I guess itâs a configuration issue as both the Homeykit app and Heimdall app havenât been changed for over 10 months.
The Homeykit app is the only app that reads the Surveillance Mode from Heimdall, Homeys builtin (Experimental) functionality doesnât support that.
Thanks to reply.
I have just upgrade Homey firmware to v.6 and now seems Homeykit app works properlyâŚ
Hope this not will change to worst.
Thanks again.

I really love your app. To make an alarm system with Homey is really cool.
Iâve a little problem with the alarm delay. Iâve 2 flows that use the trigger of the alarm delay. But sometimes they wonât trigger at all and sometimes only one is working.
The first flow is when alarm delay is active than say it over the Sonos speakers.
The second flow is when the alarm delay is active ask me to deactivate the alarm (a really important flow for me). Iâve here a picture of this flow to make it more clear (Itâs in dutch)
Is this the correct way to use it or is there a way to solve my problem?
English Translation of the flow:
IF: Alarm delay is active
AND: Send conformation push notification (do you want to deactivate the alarm?)
THEN: Deactivate the alarm
Hi Arjen,
Could you have a look and see what the log on the Dashboard says.
To make it more readable, please open it on the developer pages and if needed change the css, see: Homey Flow for Web - three Column view [CSS customization] - #2 by DaneedeKruyff
I donât know why, but I canât make it more readable to make a screen copy.
But here is a copy paste of the log that day. Donât see anything strange.

At 10:09:54:389 I see the front door activating the alarm. After that code checkes if a delay is configured, logs the result and starts the delay. In the same code that logs the delay the flowchart is triggered.
A way to see is the cards fires would be to make a flow (exactly) like this and check the log again:
(Please do disable the other flow that uses that cards as a trigger)
When that doesnât work the only way to get more information would be to run the app from the CLI (see this how to) and look at the CLI output to get more information.
Here is the output.
I think this is working correctly also with a conformation question.
