How to use the multipurpose sensor as a garage door sensor.
Samsung smartthings multipurpose sensor garage door not working.
If your smartthings multipurpose sensor or smartsense multi is stuck in a particular state there are a few options you can try to correct it.
Can anyone please help.
In looking at the works with smartthings page it seems that there isn t an opener that inherently connects to smartthings as there are only 2 add on devices that connect to it gocontrol and iris.
With automations this sensor can trigger alerts tell the lights to turn on and off or set your thermostat based on the built in temperature sensor.
If your zigbee device is not working with your hub be sure to check the power to the device and the hub s network connection.
Recently 3 of my smartthings branded open close sensors just stopped working.
However it may be necessary to reset the zigbee device and restart the hub to fix the problem.
Just purchased smartthings hub v2 and 4 multi sensors.
The myq wifi bridge is properly installed as i can use the myq app by chamberlian to open close the garage door.
Move it closer to the hub or extend the range of your network using repeaters.
I have v3 st hub the myq hub s model is myq g0301 and i am using a st multipurpose sensor.
I added the multipurpose sensor but there was no option to change this to garage door mode.
The problem is sometimes the sensors don t seem to change status from open close.
The multipurpose sensor may be out of range.
Simple set up simply connect the device to your samsung smartthings hub and download the smartthings smart phone app and you have everything you need to get started.
The recently option in the app shows healthy but the temp is wrong.
The multipurpose sensor can detect temperature and trigger smart thermostats or portable heating and cooling units to automatically adjust if temperatures fluctuate.
So i logged into the website and updated the type to smartsense garage door multi.
It looks like my current garage door opener is failing and as i replace it i would like to get something that works with smartthings.
Also i noticed that this sensor is always reporting incorrect temperature right now it is showing 808.
I can diddle the open close buttons but it does not control my garage door.
The battery is 77 or at least that is what is reported.
I pull the battery and wait a little bit put battery back in and the temp is updated but the open close sensor just shows closed even though it is open.
Wi fi routers can sometimes cause interference for the.
It just gets frustrating when.
After that it is always showing open.
Howdy i am using the new smartthings app.
All the sensors are within 30 40 feet of the hub i have tried repairing the sensors turned off hub for 15 minutes but noting seems to correct this issue.
Zigbee device is not working with samsung smartthings hub.
The smartthings multipurpose sensor is great for monitoring doors windows cabinets or any off limits area.
I integrated the myq app with st and see the app show up within st.
