Centralite 3310-G temperature and humidity sensor?

Devices & Integrations
1

Is anyone using the subject device and have it reporting both temperature AND humidity properly with Edge?

I have two, one I installed a few months back, and one I installed yesterday.

The older one has reports for both temp and humidity, but I have not seen humidity move from 70%, despite moving it out of a freezer in to the house air last night. Looking through its history, I have not seen a change in humidity as far back as I can look.

The newer one has no reports for humidity at all. It’s been installed for 15 hours or so.

I’ve tried both the Smartthings beta Zigbee Humidity Sensor driver and Mariano’s Zigbee Temp Sensor and Child Thermostat Mc driver with the same result.

Trying to figure out if the device just reports humidity this infrequently, in which case it’s not at all useful as a sensor.

Thanks!

I have three of these. They are reporting humidity every few hours. They are working with an edge driver. I have one in a room where laundry gets hung on drying racks. I can see the humidity levels going up and down in accordance with the laundry being hung.

I have several as well, including our showers, and they all are updating. They’re also on Edge drivers.

Thanks guys, can you let me know which driver they are using?

And if it’s a ST driver, is it one of the beta ones?

Thanks!

Thanks. I’ll take a look. I have one on that driver (though I think it’s the “beta” - not sure if that may make a difference), and one on a Mariano driver. The one on the Mariano driver has been stuck at 70% for many days. The one on the beta zigbee humidity has not yet reported a humidity value, almost 18 hours later.

Is there a difference with the beta drivers? Should I be seeing non-beta ST drivers on my hub?

Thanks guys.

Interestingly, the one device started reporting and both have updated. Only once, to a coincidental “50%”, but it’s a start.

I’ve put one of the devices near the stream of a humidifer and will see if it updates again.

I am also having this issue I have used both the ST driver and the MC driver, and the only difference is where the humity is stuck

My humidity readings looks to have started moving. Quite slow to update, don’t know if this is the device or the driver. I moved everything to the ST beta zigbee driver.

Digging this thread back up as the OP…

Recently started having difficulty with these sensors. I have three of them.

One works fine - regular updates of temperature and humidity.

One has only updated humidity for a number of days; temperature is “stuck”.

The other has only updated temperature for weeks; humidity hasn’t moved.

The one that has stuck temperature, I’ve deleted and re-added the device via reset. No change. In fact, it hasn’t shown any temperature since I reset it this morning.

Centralite told me it must be a problem with the Smartthings integration, contact Smartthings or try the forums. I find it hard to believe this since they all worked fine for a while and one continues to work.

All are using the “Zigbee Humidity Sensor” Smartthings Edge driver. I’ve moved to alternate drivers (@Mariano_Colmenarejo Zigbee Temperature Humidity Sensor Mc) with no change.

Anyone else experiencing the same? Thanks.

Did you remove the device before pairing with Mariano’s driver or did you just switch drivers in the app?

13

I’ve done it both ways. I’m starting to wonder if all of my combination temperature/humidity sensors are behaving funny now, and only updating one of the two signals. As I’ve watched them today, I’ve seen two change temperatures but not humidity, and the other change humidity but not temperature. I am using a combination of the Smartthings drivers as well as Mariano’s drivers on them…

Look at the temperature and humidity graph in the app.

Here all the events sent by the device to the driver and the platform are registered.

In the history it only shows events with temperature or humidity change

Very few humidity events showing, not since early august. Something is wrong with multiple of the same device for me.

Kitchen hasn’t updated humidity since 8/5, (2) temperature hasn’t updated humidity since like 8/2, and (1) temperature isn’t reporting anything other than an initial humidity measurement (this is the one re-paired today). All should have seen significant variation in both temp and humidity since the beginning of the month.

@Mariano_Colmenarejo Separate item but all of your drivers are showing “Connected” on the icon tile since the latest iOS update yesterday.

Periodic reports are configured during the initial installation of the device.

In driver changes, by default, smartthings does not perform a new configuration of the device.

My temperature and humidity drivers try to configure the devices when a driver change is made. I say try because not all devices accept the settings after the initial installation, some because they may be asleep and others for other reasons.

Also in the last few weeks there have been problems with the life cycles that control how the device is installed on driver changes, some of them make totally or partially inoperative.

To all this have been added changes in App’s, firmware and in the smsrthings cloud.

With the devices that have a problem, I would recommend uninstalling and restarting them and installing them with the driver that you are going to use and do not make unnecessary driver changes.

With my driver you can try changing the reporting frequency in preferences, but to be sure your device accepts it you need to use the CLI and see the device’s SUCCESS response to the configuration change messages.

My experience of these configuration changes is that Samjin devices, (smarrthings, aeotec) always accept them. Sonoff accepts them into the pairing and before falling asleep. Others that are not battery powered always accept them.

In the graphs, it is interesting to see the graph of minutes, which shows all the events received on the platform during 1 hour in 5-minute intervals.

This device reporting every 10 minutes or 0.3° temp changes

How can I pair with a specific driver? It seems to select whichever it thinks is appropriate among the 4 that apply each time I reconnect it.

If you have all the drivers installed on the hub there is no way to choose.

It may be time for smartthings to think about how to approach this!!

It will be a big problem!, since the device will be configured with the values of the driver chosen by the firmware.

Maybe they can implement that, when more than one driver meets the pairing conditions, then the drivers options are shown to the user to choose the driver, like when you want to switch to another driver.
