UPDATE: @NYCE_Support responded that they fixed a bug on the driver posted on their website that was causing the motion sensor not to work. I have the new handler and also they said they updated their website. I’ll report back if I can make all sensors to work.

Perhaps I’m being too sensitive. And I won’t claim to have put more thought into this than Tyler has. But I didn’t find NYCE’s naming convention to be that complicated, at least on Amazon. The ceiling sensor is listed as NCZ-3043-HA, and the product page pretty clearly states it works with ST but it’s not compatible with control4. Another 10 seconds on the NYCE website reveals that the control4 version doesn’t have the “HA” at the end (and can only be purchased through control4 sales channels anyway).

I like this as a motion sensor, it’s unobtrusive and it works. If the temp/humidity can report correctly, that’d be a nice bonus. I hope NYCE and ST can work it out.

I’ve had fun with this handler today, but I’ve got all sensors working. I posted the handler here:

85

Awesome, thanks! Will check it out tonight.

I’m not 100% sure, but I think the new Lowes IRIS NYCE tilt sensor will work with smartThings. I’m going to order one from EBAY as my local LOWES does not have the new model. New model info. What to look for is three slots in the front of the sensor and a UPC of: 8 41722 00015 8. Unfortunately Lowes kept the same item # (505329) online so you can’t easily see if your store has the new model. The packaging still says “NCZ-3014” (sans HA) though the sensor has NCZ-3014-HA on it. One easily identifiable trait is the packaging is now a box rather than a blister pack. I’ll report back after I receive and test it.

87

I am still not able to get NCZ-3014 from Lowes Iris to work even with new handler.

Is there anything that needs to be changed to get it to work other than changing TYPE to the one on this thread.

Or am I confused and the non-HA version still will not work.

88

Non-HA is a no go (messed with mine for hours). Hopefully you still have the box. Unless you want to invest in IRIS and pay a crazy monthly fee :slight_smile:

Just picked up a pair of the NCZ-3014 sensors from Lowes for $3.50 each (Figured what could it hurt) They’re 2nd Gen, in the box instead of blister pack, and with the slits on the front of the sensor.

Box says NCZ-3014, but sensor says NCZ-3014-HA (And that’s how Lowes says to idenfity that it’s a second gen).

First one paired up, and works fine using the built-in device handler. Just tilt status, and battery (No temperature), but I don’t think you’re supposed to get temperature from these little things.

I can confirm that the new IRIS one works. Using it for my dog food container so I can tell if the dog’s been fed and what time and hopefully alert if not. (Dog always tells her other parent that she hasn’t been fed)

91

I assumed these will work with the hub. I came here after a quick search. After looking here it seems this is the old gen and won’t work.
These were discounted at Lowes to under $10. Item says

NCZ-3014
SN: 8 41722 00001 1

Works with Iris

Is there any support for this from smartThings now?

I just bought and installed one of the ceiling sensors using the NYCE driver (published in 2016) found here: http://nycesensors.com/support/ and it is reporting motion, temperature, humidity and battery status successfully.
This version of sensor: https://www.amazon.com/NYCE-NCZ-3043-HA-ZigBee-Ceiling-Motion/dp/B00X871DB2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1472145912&sr=8-1&keywords=NYCE+Ceiling

@SBDOBRESCU Bobby, I know this topic is over a year old but I’m searching everywhere for an answer- I just got the NYCE Tilt. I did not use any handlers and (as you stated) it paired right up to ST and showed “NYCE Tilt”. But it shows as ‘Open’ and there’s nothing I can do to get it to register as ‘Closed’. After getting frustrated, I even pulled the battery, and ST still showed it as ‘Open’. Do I give up on this thing? Or is there a custom handler or smartapp that I’m not finding? Thanks

94

I have the NYCE tilt sensor and it works without any issues, at least for me. On the device support page for the HA model, there is a zip file you can download that has the smartthings drivers.

Sorry, can’t upload the zip file here for you.

Is it still reporting humidity. I cant get mine to do so.

96

I just checked and it seems to be reporting temperature and humidity levels.

So I just copy and paste the code in the “My device handlers”, then “create new device handler”, then “From Code”, then “Create”, and “publish”…
Correct?

Honestly, I forget the exact process as it’s been a year and I only have one of these sensors. I believe that’s how I did it.

100

Was this an initial install or did it stop reporting the temp/humidity?
When you look at it in your device handler, is it: “smartthings : NYCE Motion Sensor Series”?

Does the device itself also show “NYCE Motion Sensor Series” as the type?

That’s all I can think of that could be wrong off the top of my head.
I confirmed on the site that i’m getting humidity every 2 hours. Temperature seems more random but it is updating.
