Aeon Key Fob

[bnmiller423]

Hi. Im fairly new to Smartthings. Im trying to set up my Aeon Key Fob to disarm and arm my alarm. It has 4 buttons on it. It paired to smart things and i used the smart controller smartapp and told it to disarm the alarm when i push button 1. Seems like it should work, however when I push the button nothing happens. Has anyone used the key fob to disarm their alarm before? If so, can you help me get mine set up? Thanks!!!

Aeon Key Fob

I don’t know about your device but you might look over at this thread with a less expensive Zigbee Key Fob to give you ideas about how to do that. I used a different smartapp Button Controller Plus to trigger the appropriate “I’m Back!” routine (Home Actions)

[OBSOLETE] New Zigbee Device (Securifi Key Fob)

I bought one of these with hopes of figuring out how to make it work with ST. I’ve written/modified a few device types and several smartapps, but never any zigbee ones. I’m not sure where to start. When I put the device into pairing mode, it is found almost immediately by ST. The probelm is I don’t see anything in the log. Based on reading other threads I thought that there would be something in the log to get me started on building a device type, but there’s nothing there. I’ve unpaired, re-paired a few times, but nothing changes. I’ve watched the live log as well as checking the device log Any help on where to start is much appreciated Not sure if this helps [image]

Hi. I hope you solved your problem with the keyfob. Just in case you didn’t and for other new users of the keyfob I’ll explain how I got it to work. I had the same problem and I found the only way to solve it was to use a smartapp called Button Controller. Smart Lighting or routines didn’t do a job. Button pressed and nothing happened. In Button Controller do not try to make automation directly for a particular button (eg 1 or 3) but go for a whole keyfob and the app will ask you what to do with each button in four steps. And then it works. In the app you can set a button to run a routine previously created or directly turn on lights etc. I hope this helps.

wish someone could help me . . 18month ago I set up a AEON key fob using the smartthings Aron key fob example, not a problem using button controller. Now it will not work . . so I have discovered Jordan Rejaud fixed version device handler . . no problem it works again. So two unused keyfobs out of bag, now smartthings finds them as “working Aeon Key Fob” devices! . . .so for all smarthings finds the aeon and wants to call it Working AEON . . it will not show any events when key pressed, it behaves as though its straight outa box . . now factory reset, relearmed, deleted from smartthings, deleted from Zwave devices . .now spent 28hrs solid without sleep . . give up. . .so can this community help me???

yes yes yes . . fixed, Smartthings support . .
