AlarmDecoder thinks there is a fire when a fire sensor is removed (FAULT message)

[talsalis]

A CID message with bit 14 AND bit 15 set apparently indicates that the fire sensor is in fault (removed, no battery, etc.) - THIS IS NOT A FIRE ALARM!
Suggestion: in decoder.py for all use of the message.fire_alarm bit check (AND NOT) the message.check_zone bit so that a wrong fire report is not sent...

Other proposition: Change panel_message.py - message.fire_alarm should only be true when check_zone is false

Can you send me some raw ad2 alpha messages and this cid event so i can see it in context. Thanks! Sean M.

I have this same issue and just removing the detector from the ceiling causes SmartThings to think the fire alarm is triggered and starts running my fire automations. My work around for the time being is to go into the panel programming and disable the zone first so I fix for this bug would be awesome.
