I bought this Third Reality Multifunction night light & sensor (it is a plug in Zigbee device with a night light, motion sensor, and illuminance lux sensor in one).
Initially, I could not find the Smartthings Edge driver for it on this forum, so reached out to ThirdReality support and here’s the one they shared, saying it’s their latest one: Samsung account .
For the multi-function night light & sensor I used the Zigbee Switch driver from that channel and it allowed me to control the night light color as well as get motion sensor and illuminance sensor status. (After installing the Third Reality Zigbee Switch edge driver, and pairing the device, I went to the device settings in Smartthings and changed the driver to the ThirdReality Zigbee Switch one).
That channel also includes edge drivers for the ThirdReality contact sensor and button.
The THIRDREALITY Matter Smart Nightlight has been integrated into the stock ST matter-switch driver so the custom/vendor driver is no longer needed. I switched to the stock driver last week.
Hi. I’m new to these devices and the edge drivers. From what I understand there’s no longer a need for the manufacturer’s driver. *** I now think that comment was for Matter, not Zigbee ***
I was expecting the device to turn the night light on automatically if the sensor was triggered and in low light. I’m probably being dim but I can’t see how to control this in the control section. Or is it simply my needing to create a routine?
Old thread, but I just got this Zigbee ThirdReality multifunction night and it’s LUX feature isn’t that accurate.
I installed the SmartThings Edge driver and the ThirdReality Zigbee multifunction night light is working except for a certain condition of LUX. When the LUX is showing a level of 3 in SmartThings, and a darken the room so it should change the LUX level to 1 because I cannot see anything anymore, this device does not change the LUX at all. It will change the LUX level to 1 when the LUX level is above 7 and I darken the room. So obviously trying to use the LUX sensor in SmartThings is a dealbreaker since either their firmware sensitivity threshold or SmartThings driver do not report LUX/Lumen changes accurately enough for my environment.
We would need to see what the device is sending to the driver to determine if it’s ST or the device itself. You can do driver logging using the ST CLI. Download the binary to a Linux/Windows/macOS computer and use the command “smartthings edge:drivers:logcat” to collect the messages from the device. You can post that here and please use the pre-formatted option in the + menu.
I just received the device, but went to website and don’t see any drivers for the zigbee night light. The one that ST selected, doesn’t show that it’s motion sensor activation. I was hoping to use as a motion sensor/repeater and maybe throw some night light in there. I am not seeing a new driver from third reality.
