Arm Night Support
Place your system into Arm Night mode from HomeKit even though the ADT Pulse Web Portal and mobile app hide it.
Overview
On ADT Pulse systems, Arm Night is a panel-only mode. It is not exposed on the ADT Pulse Web Portal or the official mobile app.
This plugin still lets you reach it. You can place your system into Arm Night mode through HomeKit even though ADT's own surfaces do not offer the option.
Where Arm Night Lives
The table below shows where the Arm Night mode is available across the surfaces you might use.
| Surface | Arm Night Available |
|---|---|
| Security panel | ✓ |
| ADT Pulse Web Portal | ✗ |
| ADT Pulse mobile app | ✗ |
| This plugin (via HomeKit) | ✓ |
Using Arm Night from HomeKit
The Home app maps its security modes to HomeKit target states, and this plugin translates the Night target into an Arm Night command for the panel.
To set Arm Night from the Home app:
- Open the Home app.
- Tap the Security Panel accessory.
- Choose the Night mode.
Force Arming Applies
Like the other arm states, Arm Night is subject to force arming when the plugin detects active motion or open sensors.
For details on that behavior and how to check your sensors before arming, see Force Arming.
