ST Multi Sensor as Glass Break/Motion for SHM

[Scott_Barton (Scott)]

I’m really digging the Universal Virtual Device Type.

[OBSOLETE] Universal Virtual Device Type and Translator

This has got to be the sickest DTH ever… The uDTH Ever wished you could turn on a presence sensor with a switch?, or maybe take a lock command and send a motion event? Basically this bad boy accepts these commands: on off open close lock unlock and can turn them into these attribute states: open closed present not present active inactive The following capabilities are presented on the command side: switch door control garage door control lock The following devices are presented on the attribute side: Contact Motion Presence Door Acceleration Illuminance Smoke Water Sound You wire up an instance of this device to two separate apps, and off you go. Add to your repo, and select the device MikeMaxwell : uDTH the repo is owner: MikeMaxwell name: dth [image] [image] [image…

I have some ST multi/door sensors on some windows. I want to integrate them with SHM not just go off when the window opens, but also if it detects motion (breaking window or going through screen if window is already open).
The ST Multi sensor does open/close, temp, and acceleration. SHM only uses open/close and motion (ie, the acceleration doesn’t trigger an alarm). So to convert the acceleration (breaking glass or going through screen) into a motion detector I used the uDTH to create a virtual motion sensor (auto shut off after 30 seconds). Then used Smart Lighting App to turn on my new motion uDTH when the ST Multi sensor senses acceleration. Now SHM can use the uDTH motion sensor to trigger an alarm, even if the window is open.
