Old Minimote, new app (June 2021)

[DaWeav]

I use my Minimotes with Smart Lighting Routines and a little tweak of the child button device handler in the IDE to make the button presses run ‘local’. But, using Smart Lighting Routines instead of Automations only ‘toggles’ the devices configured. So, when I press the button the first time, nothing might happen, but a second press of the button activates the Smart Lighting Routine.

For ‘local’ execution of button presses in Smart Lighting, this is what I did back in February. The strange thing is, if I setup an Automation to do the exact same Smart Lighting actions, it doesn’t run ‘local’.

I found a combination of settings that allow the Aeon Minimote buttons to work locally offline when the SmartThings Hub is not connected to the internet.

With the Aeon Minimote’s using the Aeon Minimote device handler, and the child buttons set to the SmartSense Button device handler, and then using the Smart Lighting SmartApp Automations with a button as the trigger to trigger devices that run local, it works when the SmartThings Hub is not connected to the internet.
