+ ### 4.4.0 (2026-10-07)
6
+
7
+ Rolls up the 4.3.1 and 4.4.0 betas below. Coming from 4.2.8, existing accessories carry over with their rooms, names and automations. Coming from 4.3.0, turn on `external_accessories` to keep the accessories that release published outside the bridge, see 4.3.1-beta.3.
8
+
9
+ - **FEATURE** - Combined areas. One accessory can arm and disarm several areas at once, set up under `area_groups`.
10
+ - **FEATURE** - Panel clock sync. `time_sync_interval` sets how often, in hours, the panel clock is checked against the machine running Homebridge and corrected. Off by default.
11
+ - **FEATURE** - `external_accessories` lets installs that ran 4.3.0 keep their accessories.
12
+ - **FEATURE** - How an arm is reported to HomeKit is configurable via `remote_users`, `app_users` and `default_arm_state` (#25).
13
+ - **FIX** - Accessories are bridged again, as in 4.2.8 and earlier, and are cached across restarts.
14
+ - **FIX** - Arming or disarming areas 5 to 8 addressed the wrong areas, and area 8 sent a malformed command. Present since 4.2.8.
15
+ - **FIX** - The first arm or disarm from a HomeKit button is no longer ignored (#26).
16
+ - **FIX** - A full arm no longer changes to Night in the Home app a minute later (#25).
17
+ - **FIX** - The arm/disarm command is retried once if the panel ignores it, and the retry timer is cleared once the panel answers.
18
+ - **FIX** - Areas and zones sharing a number no longer share a serial number.
19
+ - **TWEAK** - Runs on Homebridge 1.x again as well as 2.x.

  - **FEATURE** - Panel clock sync. Set `time_sync_interval` to the number of hours between checks and the plugin reads the panel clock, comparing it against the machine running Homebridge, and sets it when the two have drifted apart. Anything from every hour to once every 31 days, 0 leaves the panel clock alone and is the default. The panel is also checked shortly after Homebridge connects, so a panel that lost its clock in a power cut is put right without waiting for the interval. Needs a UDL, as arming does.

+ ## Highlights
2
+
3
+ - **Combined areas.** One accessory can arm and disarm several areas at once, set up under `area_groups`. The areas go to the panel in a single command. A combined area shows as armed once all its areas are armed, and an alarm in any of them shows straight away.
4
+ - **Panel clock sync.** Set `time_sync_interval` to the number of hours between checks, from 1 up to 744 (31 days). The plugin compares the panel clock with the machine running Homebridge and corrects any drift. It also checks shortly after connecting, so a panel that lost its time in a power cut is put right. Off by default. Needs a UDL, as arming does.
5
+ - **Configurable arm reporting.** `remote_users`, `app_users` and `default_arm_state` decide how an arm is reported to HomeKit, instead of user numbers fixed in code (#25).

+
7
+ ## Upgrading
8
+
9
+ - **From 4.2.8 or earlier:** nothing to do. Accessories carry over with their rooms, names and automations.
10
+ - **From 4.3.0:** 4.3.0 published accessories outside the bridge. To keep them and the scenes and automations built on them, turn on `external_accessories`. Leave it off to get bridged accessories, which will need setting up again in the Home app.
11
+
12
+ ## Fixes
13
+
14
+ - Accessories are bridged again, as in 4.2.8 and earlier, and are cached across restarts. Accessories removed from the config are unregistered.
15
+ - Arming or disarming areas 5 to 8 addressed the wrong areas, and area 8 sent a malformed command. Present since 4.2.8.
16
+ - The first arm or disarm from a HomeKit button is no longer ignored (#26).
17
+ - A full arm no longer changes to Night in the Home app a minute later (#25).
18
+ - The arm/disarm command is retried once when the panel ignores the first write, and the retry timer is cleared once the panel answers. Before, every command also sent a second login two seconds later.
19
+ - Areas and zones that share a number no longer share a serial number.
20
+ - User numbers over 99 are no longer truncated.
21
+ - Areas are matched by area number rather than by their position in the config.
22
+
23
+ ## Other
24
+
25
+ - Runs on Homebridge 1.x again as well as 2.x.
26
+ - Removed the unused `crypto-js` dependency.
