UI5 Installation and Setup

Panel connected to Vera using USB RS-232 Serial Adapter

Preliminary Steps

Before attempting to install the plug-in, it is recommended to connect the respective RS-232 adapter, and set this up first in order to establish connectivity. To set up the serial port:

1. Open the Vera UI and navigate to Apps >> Develop Apps >> Serial Port Configuration.
2. If the serial port is not in the list, restart Luup.
3. Set the Baud to match the setting on the other end of the serial cable. The default is 38400.
4. Optionally you can rename this port in the Name input box.
5. Save.

Plugin Setup

1. First go to Apps >> Install Apps and install the plugin.
2. After the plugin has been installed go to Apps -> Develop Apps -> Serial port configuration and select the alarm panel device from the Used by device drop-down list.
3. Save.
4. After Luup has restarted reload the UI.

The plugin creates a device for the alarm system, and one device for each alarm partition. Partitions are detected automatically.
