The Alarm Control Panel may default the `code_arm_required` attribute to `true` even if the platform does not support or require it. Use the [Entity Customization Tool](/docs/configuration/customizing-devices/#customization-using-the-ui) to override `code_arm_required` to `false` and expose the Alarm Control Panel during discovery.
