Follow this link to get the four probes working:
Making progress - status so far - installed temp probes.
Much thanks to others for the DH and SA - I have only tweaked. Would be good to build all the functions of the Fibaro Universal Sensor into one DH and one SA but that is way beyond my skillset!
Part A – sort out the temperature probes
NOTE: THIS ASSUMES THAT YOU ARE USING CELSIUS TO RECORD YOUR TEMPERATURE READINGS. IF YOU ARE NOT, YOU MAY NEED TO CHANGE THE FORMULA IN THE DEVICE HANDLER TO GIVE YOU THE CORRECT RESULT. I WILL TRY TO CHECK THIS EVENTUALLY… ALSO NOTE THAT THE DOES NOT YET WORK WITH MINUS TEMPERATURES – AN EASY FIX JUST NOT YET DONE
Parts:
Fibaro universal sensor
12DC adaptor
4 x DS18B20 (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111434870374 )
Step 1
A – removed ends of DC cable and soldered to PWR and GND of FUS (note: …
I have not tested this DH with the four probes. If you get it working with this one, please shout!
Hi,
Good job, I try with new Fibaro Binary Sensor and four probes, It’s working.

Pasting this here as a new released version of the UBS device handler. The associated thread should also allow us to work towards a single (ideally perfect) device handler. Ive made quite a few improvements and support child devices for both temperature and contact (that way you can link them to other things through CoRE/WebCore for example).
Hi all,
Ive been working on the Fibaro Universal Binary Sensor for a while now and have finally got it to a point where it is responsive and meets all my requirements.
Main improvements:
It can create two child devices for the two contact sensors and automatically updates them without a smart app (and you dont need to install extra device handlers as I use the default SmartThings testing ones).
If you change the device handler for the child contact sensors to a “Simulated Motion Sensor” then the child devices will work as motion sensors instead of contact sensors.
It can cope with four temperature sensors and negative temperatures but might behave erratically with Fahrenheit. - Note that temperature sensors have to be connected at the point you pair/include the UBS into SmartThings, ot…

What device option do you select when you add the device ?

I cannot get it to recognise the sensor
