I know several threads exist here regarding these devices, and I know a device type was created by Adam… I have a new Liftmaster 8500 en route and my question are: How well does this work? I am pretty sure it will open and close, but how is the state reporting? Is it as reliable as SmartSense multi…

Cool. My 8500 will be here next week. How’s the range on the gateway? I plan to connect it to a switch in a room adjacent to the garage.

No issues with range. I keep it the Den between the ST hub and wifi router, 12 inches apart. Maybe 30 feet straight line to the garage openers. Two walls and three doors separating.

[image] Dlee: No issues with range Yup… installed it yesterday and everything on the LiftMaster side of things works like a charm; really like this new style of opener. But on the SmartThings side of things (big surprise) not so good. Seeing huge lag on updating status in the app ( I have a …

Looking at my MYQ in Android app, it seems much of the activity feed and regular polling data is missing since about 4:03 AM September 28th, logged for a bit on Oct 1st then nothing. Before that I had regular status updates. So recent changes may be causing an issue with device status. For my light…

[image] Dlee: Looks like you fixed the null issue already in the other thread. Yeah. But I am still having way too many issues with this. one is due to SmartThings’ polling not working, and the other is due to MyQ not being able to send events to SmartThings (requiring polling to keep the sta…

@Dlee OK… so here is what I came up with . I can use the old sensor to refresh the MyQ device regardless of how the door is opened or closed. Haven’t pounded on it much yet but it seems to address my issues.

Hey Scott, I was wondering If you can point me to the right place. I have ST hub but have never edited any code or accessed it past the basic install. I’m technical enough to edit code when I know where and what but just haven’t had the time. I have two reasons to do it now. One is the purchase of…

I’m really disappointed in the MyQ from a SmartThings perspective. The problem is that I don’t believe they will trigger events. So yes, it will show me the state, and I can control the from SmartThings, but I can’t detect if a door is left open easily by triggering on the open event. At least not t…
