How to add an old contact sensor and/or edit device type? (Schlage RS100HC)

As far as changing which edge Driver it’s using, in the old architecture you could just force a change to anything you wanted. But in the new architecture, the new edge driver must have a matching fingerprint to your device or you won’t be allowed to change. And you have to have the new driver on your hub. So you will have to figure out what edge driver you want to be using and download it. Unless it doesn’t already have the fingerprint you want, in which case you have to ask the edge driver author to add your fingerprint before you download it.

so the steps are:

  1. find out what the fingerprint is for the device
  2. decide what edge driver you want to be using
  3. make sure that edge Driver already includes your fingerprint. If it doesn’t, you have to ask the author to add it.
  4. follow the link the author will give you, subscribe to the channel, and download the desired edge driver to your hub.

Once you have the new edge Driver on your hub, here are the instructions for changing to it. Fortunately, that part is easy. :sunglasses:
