what else can I try? it may be the latest update of ST hub.
Contact the author of the driver with all details you have.
- Details about the device that isnāt working
- Screenshot of the settings in the app
- Screenshot of the driver menu in the app
- Screenshot of the hub details (usually, version is enough)
- Screenshot of the app details (usually, version is enough)
- Screenshot of the mobile details (usually, operating system is enough)
- Logs of the driver taken from smartthings-cli
I tried to get the Whenzi Zigbee mmwave sensor (Tuya Smartlife) and it added as a Zigbee thing. Where do I find drivers?
Hi, this is my first post.
I have a Tuya ZY-M100 Presence Sensor, but donāt know how to get it to work with SmartThings. Iām interested in both the presence detection and distance detection with this device, but donāt know how to set it up. Sorry for the newbie question, can anyone help? Thank you and cheers
I started using SmartThings because it provides the best experience and automation triggers and works across different operating systems. =)
Edit: I also have the Sonoff mmwave sensor and it works well with Zigbee via my SmartThings gateway, however it doesnāt include distance detection, which is why Iām interested in the Tuya.
Edit:
Model: WZ-M100-W
Network: Zigbee
Do you have the Wi-Fi or the zigbee version? They have the same primary model number, but the suffix will be different.
Hi JDRoberts, thank you for the reply. I have the Zigbee version, apologies for not including it originally. Cheers! =)
I presume you mean this sensor.
As commented many times on this forum integrating Tuya devices on ST has itās difficulties. Additionally this, like many MM presence sensors has the problem that it can collapse the Zigbee hub with excessive messaging.
I actually paired this directly with my V3 hub but it caused it to āfreezeā on occasions. Pairing with my iHost produced the same issue so I ended up buying a small (12ā¬) Tuya Zigbee hub and pairing with Smartlife. This has the great advantage in that it allows a perfect configuration depending on room size etc. In my case I then use Node-red with MQTT but I believe the Smartlife cloud integration might be the simplest method here. @Paul_Oliver is the expert on that integration.
Return it and get an Aqara FP1E.
You wonāt need any additional hubs, clouds or workarounds.
Hi @Johnnybegoode, think other folks on this thread seem to have this working without a separate Tu Zigbee hub, however I may be mistaken.
Can the Tuya mmwave sensor can be added to the Tuya Zigbee Hub via the SmartLife app and then it can be integrated into SmartThings via the SmartLife app also?
Which Tuya Zigbee Hub did you get? There seems to be many different Tuya Zigbee Hubs available and many of them say they only work with other certain branded Zigbee devices.
Thanks!
Hi, I may get an Aquara, however the Aquara is much more $$$ than the Tuya and thatās why I prefer the Tuya. Thank you for the suggestion =)
Itās your decision if you want to spend much more time and more money for a hub, to have much higher latency, non-local execution, stability issues, uncertainty if all features are supported.
Yes of course, but my post was to point out to you that although I paired this to the ST hub it created problems.
Also I began by saying that Tuya - Smartthings integration is not easy, and you might like to take into account @Andreas_Roedl 's comment which will be much simpler due the integration developed between Aqara and ST.
I am pleased with my integration using the Tuya hub as these are very good sensors but take into account it needs
- Tuya Hub (very cheap)
- Local server with Node Red
- Install node-red-contrib-tuya-devices node
- Sign on to Tuya Developer program (free)
- Install MQTT broker
- configure and develop node red flow using MQTT
If you are interested I can answer any questions on doing that.
