Developed a new feature for the openhab/openhab-addons repository, adding support for the DSC Alarm Bypassed Zones Bitfield Dump command to enhance real-time monitoring of security zones. Leveraged Java to extend the DSCAlarmMessage class for parsing the new protocol command and updated the ZoneThingHandler to reflect bypass status for each zone. This integration across binding layers enabled dashboards and automations to display current bypassed zones, reducing manual checks and improving automation reliability for DSC alarm users. Demonstrated skills in API integration, embedded systems, and IoT protocols, delivering a cohesive solution that improves visibility and response for security automation setups.
