destructure00:
A single sensor with an external reed switch will not do what you want. This configuration does not turn it into two separate sensors, it just provides two ways to trigger a single open/closed switch. The result is exactly what you are seeing…if both contacts are open, the sensor will report open, if either contact is closed, the sensor reports closed. This is a limitation of the physical hardware rather than a software interpretation issue.
With the GoControl window/door sensor. @krlaframboise created a DTH for both internal and external sensors to operate separately. I have a couple that use the internal reed for open/closed and external for water sensor.
I won’t be converting the GoControl/Linear Multifunction Contact Sensor DTH into an Edge Driver so it will stop working once the Groovy platform is retired, but it probably doesn’t need a custom driver
This is an advanced device handler for the GoControl/Linear Contact Sensor (WADWAZ-1) that allows you to use the internal and external sensors as different capabilities.
If all you want to do is use this device as a normal contact sensor, use my other device handler located here .
Features
Supports the Contact Sensor, Water Sensor and Motion Sensor capabilities.
Choose which contact (internal/external/main) and which state (open/close) go with each of the motion and water states (wet/dry/active/inactive).
Choose which capability to use for the main tile.
