To install via the repository, add the following to the IDE Settings
Owner: arnbme (in upper case that is ARNBME)
Name: SmartThingsPublic
Branch: Master

Restrictions
The keypad’s DTH must issue command sendEvent with name: “armMode”. The Centralite Keypad DTH by Mitch Pond and Zack Cornelius is suggested.
A smartapp issuing commands that execute the command in the DTH suchas: EThayer’s Lock Manager
or Smart Alarm. Usually this is done with command SetExitDelay. If your supported keypad device beeps at Exit / Entry delay this should work.
