    Any way to convert string to value?

    The last user disarm doesn't populate anything in the value field. It only populates the string. For example, "user1", "user2", "user3", etc...

    I'd like to use the device's Status Graphics tab to change the display to the users name. For example "user1"="Tim". You can only make those changes based on values, not strings. So I'm trying to figure a way to do it.

    Thanks!

    Hi Tim,

    When I have time, I will add this functionality to the plugin. But for now, you can use EasyTrigger (plugin). See screenshot.

        I've been using this method to change the name of the User2 for example. I have noticed that the device will change or update even when the alarm status has not changed.

        For example.

        I'm User1. I disarm the alarm at 1:00pm. The EasyTrigger changes the User1 string to Tim. Maybe an hour later, the device change state time will change to 2:05pm or something. Like it keeps getting updated even though the string should not be changing.

        Are you seeing this happen?
