Piezo Actions: Quick Beep on contact open/close possible?

Smart Home Integrations Hubitat
, ,
1

I've read through the online docs, and the forums and didn't find anything similarly answered.

Currently, the piezo stays ON until the contact is closed; I'm looking for a way to have it "chirp" 3 times consecutively/quickly on open and on close; similar to most standard alarm systems.

I have only been able to find a way in the SmartThings app to set the piezo sound ON to a minimum of 1 minute (duration WAY to long and no repeat option).

My piezo is connected to the GRD and OUT on the side (not the zone terminals) on the add-on panel.

Thanks in advance!

Did you figure this out yet? Mine beeps, but the pattern is never consistent and sometimes it stays on for like 10 seconds.  Any help would be great.

Using Hubitat. I wanted one beep for open and two quick beeps for close using a single piezo.

I edited the beep driver, assigning the original to the ‘push’ action (tone device) and a new beep2 to ‘on’ action (switch device). Default time settings changed to simulate beeps I wanted. Just edit the driver and save. Here’s a copy of the section of driver code I changed:

def on() {
beep2()
}

def push() {
beep()
}

def beep() {
parent.deviceUpdateDeviceState(device.deviceNetworkId, triggerLevel(), [
momentary : beepDuration ?: 150,
pause : beepPause ?: 150,
times : beepRepeat ?: 1
])
}

def beep2() {
parent.deviceUpdateDeviceState(device.deviceNetworkId, triggerLevel(), [
momentary : beepDuration ?: 150,
pause : beepPause ?: 50,
times : beepRepeat ?:2
])
}

Hi, could you please share a copy/paste of the entire driver code? Thanks so much!

Thanks so much; this is also a useful code-learning project as well!

Ciao,

Hello again J, I was just trying to swap in your code (exact copy/past of what you posted), unfortunately, I am seeing this error:

unexpected token: Beep @ line 17, column 30.

Any thoughts?

I cut/pasted the code into my hubitat and saw the same error. I looks like the " (quotes) were converted to left and right quotes as it was copied(paste as text). “alarm” vs “alarm”…

Did the same thing again. I was correct when I replied…

Not familiar with this forum and posting code. Here it is using blockquote from menu:

Makes sense - I have had the same issue with other coding projects. Thanks for catching that and replying!
