You can`t its not something you can do from the API

[maragelis]

you can set up a 24 hour zone and use the esp8266 with a relay to close the zone. Wow now that's a good Idea and something nice I can work on for the next version. Will look into it.

I could use relay on end switch that is mounted in alarm box. If box is opened alarm triggers.

Another way is to wire a pgm output to a 24 hour zone and enable the pgm output to trigger the alarm.
