Great potential - but lot of issues
I have been using this app for the last 2 years, but recently there were lot of issues after recent update from SmartThings - my codes are regularly being disabled, no logging of lock and unlock events, and when existing codes are there this app just disables them without deletion or overwriting them.
I know this is free, but I wish I would be able to pay for something reliable. Unfortunately I haven't found anything good on SmartThings.... I'm giving up on SmartThings and switching to Wi-Fi supported devices with their own apps
@edin2met I had a similar experience and switched to the RBoy handler (paid), it's been working fine. I feel like this project has a better interface, but RBoy is working. If things get fixed here I may swap back.
Thank you so much radicand! I will definitely consider this option. I don't mind paying for this.
I appreciate ethayer sharing all this for free. It's very generous, but it's better to start charging and at some point hire developers and make it a more reliable product.
I figured out the issue with logging manual lock/unlock and keypad lock/unlock... Seems that the ZWave objects now overload the code 0x71 for alarms and Notifications... to fix, you will need to modify your device handler... Specifically, you need to update the "def parse(String description)" method. Near the bottom, you need to specify the version for code 0x71... so the cmd creation line should now be:
def cmd = zwave.parse(description, [ 0x98: 1, 0x71: 2, 0x72: 2, 0x85: 2, 0x86: 1 ])
(I added the 0x71: 2, part)
I'm not sure I have access to change the repo, but will try...
