Thanks

So you’re new to SmartThings, you asked a question, and someone suggested “custom code” as an answer. Or you were browsing the forums, and you found something that sounded like it would be perfect for what you wanted, but again, “uses custom code.” What does that mean, how hard is it to do, and what’s the difference between a “SmartApp” and a “Device Type Handler”? (Note: the official terminology has changed a couple of times. “device type handler,” “device handler,” “DTH,” and “device type” all mean the same thing, and you will find all these terms used in the forums.)

Trane XL624 / Generic Zwave Thermostat

I just wanted to share, I adapted the modified code that TWACK and a few others seemed to have contributed to and added humidity, and automatic clock setting to his code. If you don’t at least trap for the humidity in the other code examples on the Trane thermostat, they incorrectly report as a temperature. Don’t know it that is the case for others as well. That is fixed in this, added a tile for the humidity to be displayed, as well as the setting of the clock, which I thought was awesome. Enjoy everyone! GitHub Code Link

I was asking how to use/implement the handler. However, I’ve already figured out how.
