Bosch Solution 862 System and Konnected INTERFACE kit

Hey Adam,


Any luck yet? Did it work with Output 3? I'm stuck as still i couldn't get the armed status monitoring to work.

Hi Jagan,

I thought you said you had it working?

No I can't get it working no matter what settings i try, I haven't tried a different output other than 3, I don't think changing output will do anything,

Not sure what else to do.

Hi Adam,


I got this working. Hope you would have resolved this issue by now. 

Hey Jagan,
Still no luck monitoring armed/disarmed status via an output… What did you do to get this to work? I would love to know. I’ve tried many different settings on the Bosch, I know that it triggers because it shows it on the alarm panel. And same issue from my putput with the light on the potentiometer always showing.

How are you powering your Konnected device? Is it from the panel or external power supply? I had the same issue like yours as i was using the power supply from the Bosch panel. It worked fine when i connected the external 12V power supply to the Konnected board.

Hi Jagan,

I'm powering my konnected device with the Bosch panel. I never thought that could be the issue..... 

What changed for you when you used the external power supply? Did it all just start working? What settings did you use to program the Arm/Disarm status?

Yes. It started working immediately after swapping the power supply. I had to do bit of potentiometer tuning to avoid constant flickering of light. For monitoring, I used the same settings as I mentioned in my previous post

Good luck.

Jagan, thanks so much brother.
As soon as I did the direct power method everything started to work. I’m using homeassistant, next project is to make the UI look a bit better.

Awesome. Great to hear that it's working for you... 

Hi Adam.
When you connected to the N/O for the alarm status, what Zone Type did you configure it as? And same for the Armed/Disarmed state?
Konnected doesn’t appear to have types for these states. Thanks.

Thanks Jagan B,

These worked using the power from the main board.


Thanks.

I’m in this situation at the moment trying to get the zone doubling to work on my interface board and Bosch sol 16+. I can think of a way to test which I believe will work. Connect your sensor lines with EOLR resisters to the Interface board directly and individually. Then run a line back from each of the inputs on the Interface board back to your Bosch panel and double zone it back, but this time add a Diode from each of the lines before joining them to the Bosch zone inputs - that way neither signals can interfere with each of the sensor lines or Interface inputs. Will try this out today.

Update, the Bosch faults using the diode as it thinks its an open circuit.

I have the interface hooked up doubling the zones as per the Bosch, sharing zones - which is acceptable to me. Ie bedroom 1/entry door status is as one. I have many other zones sharing aswell. I may reconfigure some zones so they reflect the multiple entry door rather than combining with motion sensors… this will suffice until I’m ready to replace the Bosch entirely with the Konnected pro panel.

I have reconfigured my Bosch so a few of the motion sensors are on the same zone doubling, then ensured I kept the doors on single seperate zones. That way I can assign door icons in HA to the entry’s etc.

I have all my alarm status, burglary alarm state and key switch all working fine.

One thing I noticed, anytime I reboot the Konnected board for applying changes or whatever reason - the Bosch key switch will trigger and my alarm will go into ARMed state which is a little annoying, ie on power failures…. And if you are asleep!!

I think the problem I’m seeing is the Interface board relay sticks/latches ON or OFF rather than momentarily. Is there a way to configure the relay to be of momentarily switch or pulse?
