Monoprice Z-wave Plus Door/Window sensor

Devices & Integrations

Hi all,

Was able to get this paired up as a generic Z-Wave Plus Door/Window Sensor, but I’m not getting battery status.

Has anyone build a custom device handler for the new monoprice z-wave plus devices?

Also looking for a device type for https://www.monoprice.com/product?c_id=122&cp_id=12212&cs_id=1091804&p_id=15268&seq=1&format=2

I think the old Monoprice door/window sensor used to work with the device handler below so the new one might too, but I haven’t tested it.

If it does work, please let me know so I can add it to the list of devices it works with.

Edit: Make sure you open the device to wake it up before switching device handlers so that the configuration will run immediately.

Will try and report back

Works great with the open/close sensors. Recessed sensors only show open state (won’t show closed)

The open/close sensor is sold under multiple names, but it’s essentially the same product which is why the DTH works for all of them.

The recessed sensor is a completely different device and it most likely uses different commands so it makes sense that it doesn’t work.

If at some point I get one of those sensors I’ll most likely adjust the DTH so that it works with both devices or create a new DTH for it, but it’s low on my shopping list.

The ST “Z-Wave Plus Door/Window Sensor” dth works fine. I have two of the recessed monoprice sensors working well with this dth.

I wonder if the batteries that came with mine are dead. I don’t have any extras to test with but close to the hub I can get this to work, but beyond about 15 feet it stops. Battery is reporting at 70% (but it’s supposed to be brand new). There is a zwave light switch right near the door where I was testing it which should have acted as a repeated though.

After installing the sensor, do a network Z wave repair (My Hubs -> View Utilities -> Repair Z-Wave network)

subscribed… I just added 3 of these sensors (although 1 is already RMA’d for not being able to complete the security key handshake). Not sure how to confirm if they are connecting to @krlaframboise DHL [RELEASE] GoControl Door/Window Sensor, Motion Sensor, and Siren DTH or just using the ST Default DHL??

If anyone has insight on this, I’m listening.

@fireheadman you can check in the web IDE for each device and change if necessary.
