I posted this question a year ago and just wanted to do it again to see if anything has changed. I use the Alarm panel, alarm panel add-on and several GDOs from Konnected and am very happy overall. We use the piezo as an alert for doors opening and for water/smoke alerting based on sensors in our SmartThings directly and through Konnected panels. I.e. most of our doors and windows are contact switched while Zigbee and z-wave devices are used for other things. I have routines in ST that create a looping of the piezo command so I get a repeated response every X seconds until a virtual device holding my alarm state is turned off indicating I have addressed the situation, I use this for my water/fire alarm scenarios. For door events I just use a single momentary piezo action. The problem is we are very used to the beep (we use repeat=3, pause=50ms) from door actions so when the same beep duration, pause, repeat is used for water or fire alerts it doesn’t get our attention until it has repeated itself a few times. It would be really nice if in manage zones there was an away to create multiple duration/pause/repeat setups for the piezo out channel so I could have multiple piezo devices sync into SmartThings. I could then use slightly different sounds and patterns for different events that trigger in my system. I think you offer this in Habitat but not in SmartThings. Is this a feature people would like? I know we would!!!
Yes, you can do this in Hubitat. I would use webcore. I can easily do what you would like to do.
yeah, SmartThings is dead but I assume you know how long it would take to migrate a massive collection of devices and hundreds of automation routines!
Yes. A decision that I reluctantly made and now I am very happy with that choice.
