LDR failing on the PIR, Movement of the POT, increased resisitance in a join in the pir could be many reasons. If the switcher thinks it is daylight it wont turn the lights on when activated. Id just confirm its not that before we blame the switcher.
Hi there. Id suggest if manual is working its probably the lux level. Can you upload an image of how the switcher is wired. Mainly the low voltage connections.

An omit should only remove the detection side of the device not the tamper.
At a guess Z1 would be the front door.
I would suggest you contact your installer for support and get the circuit infomation from them. The should supply an 'As fitted document' which will provide what is fitted where for insurance purposes etc.
No I doubt its a network thing, there are issues and the team are seeing more with the pstn changes happening that's why I wondered if it was via an old line. Have you tried a payg sim on your network to test its not that that's the issue. Roaming sims are normally used for data not voice as I've never tested voice myself.
It sounds like the control panel has been damaged. The stars mean the keypad isn't communicating with the control panel.
You can get various filters etc to protect but lightning is very powerful. It could come from the mains supply, telecoms etc or tge wiring itself.
The lux info comes from the pirs. You should only have 1 lux sensor connected. Maybe you have a faulty sensor or a cable issue, do you have another pir you could use the lux from?
You can certainly set it up to notify you of an alarm event. You could use the intruder output, but you cant reset it etc as there is no input suitable on that panel
Hi Will
The eaton stuff might be a good place to look

also the new siemens (now vanderbilt) has most of what you want. There is also a an mqtt broker for that panel
There is a member on here that has an mqtt broker for the galaxy range using virtual rios etc.
Id avoid simplisafe its not a pro system, like yale etc. There are tonnes of vids on you tube on how to get around the security of these diy type panels
