[OBSOLETE] Lock User Management (LUM)

Thanks for all the updates RBoy… they may be on your radar, but I wanted to suggest a few additional features:

  • VRBO (mentioned earlier, but would add a lot of value if we could integrate lock codes with the VRBO vacation rental API)
  • Per User Notifications (based on a label in the app, it appears that this may be in the works)
  • Door Position update to the Lock Device based on the Contact Device so that we can reference the Lock Device and get complete door status:
    • right now, we have a separate contact sensor and lock; some locks have the DPS built in, but many do not…
    • for those that do not, it would be great if this Lock Code app would set the DPS attribute on the associated lock device (since its already associated and subscribed to the separate contact sensors)…
    • basically, this would allow us to name the door lock something like ‘Front Door’ and we can associate all of our apps & rules with only that 1 device and when notifications (TXT, App or voice) reference the device, it will be simply called ‘Front Door’ (vs “Front Door Lock is Open” or “Front Door Contact is Open”)…
    • hopefully that use case makes sense, but basically, we all struggle with the fact that a door is 2 different devices… would be nice if the Lock could represent both as just a door (and this App could provide the necessary communication between devices.)

Thanks for listening!

If you have a lock with an integrated Door Position Sensor (like Yale or August) then use our Enhanced Z-Wave Lock device handler and it will show up as a Lock and Door Contact Sensor in SmartThings (since device with 2 capabilities which can then be used any SmartApps)

Per user notifications are already there and you can enable/disable them along with restrictions on when to notify based on modes or user presence.

In the next version 07.04.00 we’ve added 2 more custom options for user notifications:

  1. Limit the number of notifications for that user (first X notifications)
  2. Ability to specify custom notifications options for the eac user (who to notify and how to notify)

Hello RBoy. I’ve been using your smartapps and so far they’re working really good until recently, wife always complaining that evertime I come home from work (11pm) I would wake her up because the speaker notification is too loud, which is just fine during daytime.

Can I suggest to include it in your future updates for us to set the volume on a specific time or a way to turn off the tts notification on a specific time. thank you so much.

She could also try putting her phone in silent mode at night time.

@Rboy - do you know which Yale locks have the DPS built in? Does the T1L?

Thank you all for your requests and feedback

Door Lock Code Multi User Management with Notifications and Actions - Version 07.04.03

  • Added support for customized notification settings for user custom actions
  • Improved support for timezone differences between mobile app and hub
  • Ability to limit number of notifications received per user
  • Sure Programming Engine - improved handling of mesh issues

Some examples of how folks are using this app:

  1. I give my landlord an access code for the lock but I want it disabled when I’m at home (presence based users)
  2. When my children are at home and the parents aren’t home, then allow the babysitter’s code to work (presence based users)
  3. When we’re away, allow my neighbor’s code to work (mode based users)
  4. I can schedule a code for my nanny with multiple schedules per day (morning and evening)
  5. I can program ahead for my vacation rental properties with a start and end date/time for my guests
  6. When I lock my door from outside I want my house to lock up behind me (close garage doors, lock all other doors, turn off switches, arm the security system etc)
  7. When I unlocked my outer door I want the inner door to also unlock and the lights to turn on but only at night
  8. I want my employees to have access only during business hours or on specifics days/modes

    • presence based
    • mode based and many more
  • Support for different types of locks (keypad, bluetooth, RFID, etc)
  • Define custom individual Unlock and Lock actions for users such as:
    • Exit delay actions (wait for X minutes before running actions)
    • Separate actions for Keypad and Manual locking/unlocking and per door actions
    • Turning on lights if it’s dark outside
    • Unlocking/locking secondary locks
    • Opening/closing garage doors
    • Notifications on type of lock/unlock (manual, code, keypad, bluetooth, rfid etc)

    • Automatically relocking the door when it’s closed
    • Automatically unlocking the deadbolt if it’s extended, while door is open
    • Ringing chimes when door is opened
    • Notifications if door is left open
    • Define actions for each door separately
  • Lots of built in safety mechanisms to ensure users have a reliable experience
  • Compatibility with SmartLocks
  • and lots more…

Optionally you can use the Enhanced Universal Z-Wave Lock or the Universal ZigBee Lock device handler for a more customized experience.

I have installed the DH and the Smart app for my Danalock V3 (US Zwave model)
I have 2 questions:

  1. I only see “lock”, “unlock” and “autolock” buttons and the battery information on the lock UI on ST. Why can’T I see other buttons like keypad etc. ?
  2. I didn’t undertstand how to use user codes. I created a user with a code on the smart app. Now how shall I unlock the door with that code ?

here’s screenshot from my lock UI on ST :

I posted a little tip/trick in the other thread for you.

Open the device in Things and scroll all the way to the bottom and hit Refresh several times.

This should magically make the other features appear.

What issue Tony? Your post is not linked to anything?

Been a while using this app and just did all the updates and it’s been working flawless. One problem were having is when my son leaves the house he’s forgetting to close the back slider, is there a way to prevent the front door from locking if the other door sensors are open? This way if he can’t lock the front door it will remind him to go close the other doors.

Ah ok, thanks!

That would be a nice addition :slight_smile:

It’s finally here, use your keypad as a lock and with Lock Coder User Management.

You can arm/disarm SHM directly from the keypads and also program 4 digit 4 user codes directly into the keypad using the SmartApp.

Make sure you update to version 07.05.00 of the SmartApp to use these additional SHM features (older version of the SmartApp will also work with the keypad without the extra SHM features).

Big Thumbs up to RBoys team. Ive been a Beta use for a couple of months and this is a great tool for Airbnb Hosts.

Takes all the stress out of lock code changes and has lots of notification options. If you are in to Airbnb hosting, take a look.

I have the same issue (and yes, I’ve tried refreshing). I only see Lock/Unlock/Audio and Battery Level tiles on my Conexis L1. I want to disable Autolock but none of the advanced features display.

I replied directly to the thread in question and it’s appeared here again so…

Still no answer. As far as I’m concerned, this DH does not support advanced Conexis L1 features. A bit frustrating as this is the only reason I purchased it.

I have not fitted my modules yet but do we even know if these features are supposed via the Z-Wave module. After all it is an addon and may not have the ability to change the actual Locks settings etc. but hopefully it does and we may get a reply soon!
Hope to crack on with setting mine up this coming weekend.

I have a Conexis L1, and this DH gives me an autolock toggle tile.
