[OBSOLETE] Lock User Management (LUM)

I have both the Lock User Management smartapp and Enhanced Universal z-wave Lock DH that I installed remotely (away from my hub and lock) but assigned it to my lock. I am very new at this. I was able to set up user codes and parameters, but how do I go back in and change/edit/add/remove codes? This is within the ST app and I cannot figure out how.

Replied to your PM. This is a common question:

The Classic app layout can be confusing for first time users and it’s a common for users to end up installing a new instance instead of opening an already installed instance.

To open an existing instance if an installed app, in the ST Classic app click on Automations at the bottom. Then click on SmartApps. There you should see the installed app.

If you see more than one instance of the app, click on it scroll to the bottom and tap uninstall.

You can also find step by step installation instructions here: http://www.rboyapps.com/InstallSA.htm, the last step clarifies this point as well.

Anyone having issues with notifications after hub Firmware upgrade? No notifications in the app or in the smartthings log. I’ve had to re-initialize my lock once. Just double checking before I wipe my lock again.

Can you can set up the Lock User Management app to not allow a user to lock the door with the pinpad unless all sensored windows are closed?

Hey @RBoy, I use YALE YDM4109 with keypad+fingerprint input, right now i’m using lock manager DTH but fingerprint not recognize with this DTH. Is lock user management can handle it ?

@Jrose there are many ways to do what you would like to do. Here are two different ways to achieve what you would like depending on your preference:

  1. The SmartApp cannot disable a keypad but users can be enabled/disabled based on the Mode of the hub. You can create two modes on your Hub, say ContactsOpen and ContactsClosed, and assign Mode type users in the app to be enabled when the mode is set to ContactsClosed. Then you can use a third party app like CoRE or WebCoRE etc to monitor your windows and change the hub Mode accordingly.
  2. The second way is to enable / disable the keypad on the lock if your lock supports it and if you’re using the Enhanced Universal ZWave Lock device handler. You can use CoRE or WebCoRE to monitor your window contact sensors and then use the custom commands to enable or disable your lock keypad from CoRE/WebCoRE. Please refer to the DTH topic for more details on this.

@Alunx to answer your question. If your lock support reporting fingerprints over ZWave, you will need a custom device handler to process the fingerprints usage. The Enhanced Universal ZWave Lock device handler has support to capture and process the RFID, Bluetooth and Biometric events if reported by the lock. You can refer to the DTH topic for more details.

Once the events are captured and reported by the DTH you can use this app and/or the User UnLock/Lock Actions app to process and take actions based on those events. That app is identical to this Lock User Managment app, except it is used for locks which don’t support programming (like fingerprint or rfid locks).

Hope this helps.

Thanks @maddie! Might be too complex for how we want to use it (with an airbnb rental) but I will give those options a try and see how it goes! Thanks again!

Having some issues with the door left open notifications. I only want to be notified if the mode is night. But if I open the door when the mode is night and the mode changes to home, it ignores that the mode was changed and continuous to notify me until I close the door.

I want to be able to have my lock remain unlocked for an extended period of time (like 30 minutes) when a family member arrives. I’ve turned off auto-relock in the DHT, but how exactly do I set it in the LUM? I found a place to set a re-lock after closing.

How exactly can I set my door to auto-lock after some time after being unlocked?

thanks in advance!

Tap the Door Open/Close Actions on the main page, enable the Relock door automatically feature and then it will give you an option to set it to 30 minutes. If a door sensor is added then it wait for the door to close before locking it, if not it will lock after the specified period.

Note: The AutoLock on your physical Lock should be disabled for this feature to work properly (which you’ve confirmed). Just FYI, if you’re using the RBoy Apps DTH for your devices it can check the current state of your hardware AutoLock on your lock and notify the SmartApp (the stock ST device handler doesn’t report this information), see image below for a sample notification.

I actually don’t see either of those on my app (v07.07.06)

Thank you to all our testers/users for your feedback on this incremental update

Some examples of how folks are using this app:

  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
  9. I want to open Garage door A when I press the away button and Garage door B when I press the Stay button on my Keypad

@RBoy -

Why does the app always stop working where there is an update? I always know an update is needed when my SHM won’t change modes as it normally does. This is extremely unsafe. What if I’m not home to change and my family thinks the system is arming when it isn’t. Why wouldn’t the current version just continue to work? Why does it need to break down as updates come out?

EDIT: It looks like SHM was having an outage yesterday Smart Home Monitoring Not Working

:slight_smile: I like the way you think. On a more serious note, what you’re describing is a platform timeout caused by increased load or an internal issue and not related to the app.

I think it’s a timing coincidence. We release updates tend to coincide with ST deployments to their platform (Tues/Thurs).
We’ve been hearing/noticing timeouts on the platform since yesterday across many apps so I’m guessing it’s either a ST load issue or something in the deployment, either way it’ll sort itself out in a day or so.

To protect users from these issue we released a bunch of apps to check if the Routines executed properly or if the mode/SHM changes did their things and complete it for them if the platform didn’t complete/timed out for any reason.

[RELEASE] SHM Routines, Notifications and Actions
[RELEASE] Open/Close Door/Window/Switch/Lock/Valve/Shade Notification and Actions on Mode Change
[RELEASE] Routines Backup - Verify/double check your routine execution, notify and take actions

Hum, still not working today. I bet if I update the app it will. :wink:

Hi Guys, for the lock software, do I need to install both the smart app & dth

Which App, if it is the full Rboy app , you need the driver also

I downloaded the lock user management smart app. I also see there is a universal enhanced zwave lock in the device things handler. I’m wondering if I should have both installed? I dont see an unlocking feature with presence in the smart app. Nor do I see enabling the alarm functions in the smart app.

Hi @all4dom.

I’ve installed both, and they work great together:

DTH - Universal Z-Wave Lock With Alarms
App - Lock User Management

Ok thanks. That’s what I was trying to.find out. Does the universal dth allow geofencing? I want the lock to open when I come home.
