I think you're one of the only people on the internet who has taken the time and effort to communicate/explain about the intricacies of how to get the best from smartthings on UA-cam. The videos are really engaging and simple to understand and have inspired me to create some interesting automations that I've really struggled with since the shut down of groovy. Please keep up the great work and God bless (happy Easter!).
Thanks Justin. God bless and a happy Easter to you as well.
Hi Bud, enjoy your cup o joe on me. Thanks for your thought provoking articles in enabling ST users to get ideas and new products up and running in SmartThings! This one has a lot of steps an bells and whistles to get it to work, but the ideas are great, Thanks!
Thanks Dan! I appreciate your faithful support!
Have just pinged you a cuppa as a thank you for this. Hope you get the time to break and enjoy it!
This has worked brilliantly, although can't get the 'Arm (stay)' to work using the keypad. The routine works in the app in the test environment (it switches across just fine) but not on the pad. Not the end of the world as I doubt I'll use it but if anyone has any ideas then let me know. Thanks so much again for your awesome informative videos and website user guides. 😃
Thanks Justin. I had this happen before. If this happens enter your code and tap disarm. Then enter your code again and tap Arm-stay and it should go into Arm-stay mode on the keypad.
@@BudsSmartHome Yes, this fixed it! thanks Bud 👍
Great 👍. Glad it worked!
¡Gracias!
Thank you, Carlos! I appreciate your support. 😀
Enjoy some coffee Bud... this has been a super fun process! Thank you for the detailed instructions, everything really works flawless. I also appreciate that I can easily take what you provided and expand upon it with my general knowledge of ST, smart home automation, etc. One question that I have, have you seen or found a way to cancel the Exit Delay after setting the alarm to Armed (away)? Having littles it can very easily become an issue of we were leaving now we are staying and having to wait for the timer can be tricky. If I could cancel the countdown it and Disarm it would be cool.
Hey thanks for the patronage John. It is much appreciated!
I do not know a way to cancel the countdown at this time. However, you could extend the delay period as Ring Alarm exit delay settings provide a maximum delay time of 2 minutes (180 seconds) opposed to the settings I used in the video, (60 seconds). You would then need to update the ST Routine ">Exit Timer (60 Sec) when Arm-Away Button Pressed". Actually, you could change the routine's setting in the ST app for the vEdge Exit Delay Button "Delay this action" setting to a longer time. If the Ring Keypad setting is for 2 minutes, the keypad will show a Arm-Away status at 2 minutes but the SmartThings Home Monitor (STHM) will not arm your home hub until the Delay time in the routine is satisfied. Does this make sense? I tested it with the routine's delay set at 2.5 minutes and my keypad showed Arm-Away at one minute, but the house actually armed at 2.5 minutes. Note that the keypad will continue to display the red line and the blue disarm button after the keypads' set delay time has expired. The red line and blue disarm button will remain on until the delay time in the ST routine completes. Then the red line and blue disarm button will turn off and the red Arm-Away button will light. Hope this helps?
@@BudsSmartHome thanks! This is exactly what I did. Was just curious... thanks again for the great tutorials
You bet 👍
Hey John. I came across and entry in on the SmartThings Community this morning were in a community contributor suggested a way to cancel the exit delay countdown routine. I haven't tried it but I thought I would forward his post to you for thought and consideration. Here is the link: community.smartthings.com/t/st-edge-driver-for-ring-keypad-2nd-gen/248712/113?u=buds_smart_home
Thanks Bud for another very informative video. Do you know if it is possible to have more than one security number to arm and disarm the system i.e. so I can see who has armed or disarmed the system and the time it happened by checking a log?
The driver only accepts a single security disarm code. You would need to ID users via other methods either by using presence detection or via a smart lock access codes.
Hi Bud fantastic video I have mine work just as you said! I did set the sharp tools up too , couldn't set the exit display timer to work but I'm on android went into settings on key pads and it wotrk from that ! Great job . Just wounding if the Ring siren would work with smarthings too ? King regards jeff
Glad you got it all setup Jeff. I believe it is a little less complicated on the Android because you have access to more keypad functions.
I believe that the ring siren is just a rebranded Dome siren. That said, it should work just fine. Note that you can use Ring Keypad's built in siren from within the STHM "Security" settings under response. If you decide to use the Ring siren make sure you install the Official Dome Siren Edge Driver to get access to all of the custom Chimes and Alarms: tinyurl.com/mtvpw3b5
@Bud's Smart Home was thinking about the outdoor siren as I have the boundary alarm and that didn't end well went bump so trying to utilise some of the bits I have . Git the boundary outdoor siren working but the red strobe flashing red all the time trying to find drivers that would work better with the siren. Thank you for your help . 🙏
I wanted to see if there is a way to use the Ring keypad so that I can type in a code on the keypad and a smarthings routine can be kicked off. I know this can be done for Arm, Stay and Disarm functions but I wanted to see if he can kick off functions with the Ring keypad without having to Arm, Stay, Away, etc.
Hello Kulvir. I do not believe this is doable and that opinion appears to be supported by the ST Community: community.smartthings.com/t/st-edge-driver-for-ring-keypad-2nd-gen/248712/151?u=buds_smart_home
Hello bud thanks for the video, I’m trying how you integrate the set pin into the driver, I’m using the keypad with a zwave router not with smarthing, and I’m able to get almost all notifications function, and some config entry, but I didn’t find how to setup the pincode to the keypad, in zwave alliance documentation for ring is not explained neither.
Thanks in advance for helping 😊
Hi Mira. I am not able to furnish you with the information that you seek since you are not using a SmartThings hub and you do not have the settings provided in the custom edge driver. I'll refer you to the ST Developer (hmorsti) community.smartthings.com/u/hmorsti and perhaps he may be able to steer you in the right direction: community.smartthings.com/t/st-edge-driver-for-ring-keypad-2nd-gen/248712?u=buds_smart_home
@@BudsSmartHome thanks for you quick answe, I saw the driver source code for smarthings, ok I saw the pin capture. apparently on my router and with the jeedom domotic system, this feature is not available yet, that's the only missing info and feature for this devices on jeedom. they also manage to make it work on home assistant, so I guess one day jeedom will take care of it...
Hi, is it possible to add the whole ring alarm system (base station) in to SmartThings?
No. This is not doable. The Ring Alarm base station in a Z-Wave hub and the SmartThings or Aeotec are Z-Wave hubs as well. You cannot install one hub on another hub. You can install Ring Alarm devices on either hub. Z-Wave devices are exclusive to a single hub, meaning that they can only reside on one Z-Wave hub at a time.
Hi bud
Would this work for eufy key pad? Is there and edge driver for eufy security gear?
Great work on your channel
Thanks for commenting. SmartThings uses Zigbee and Z-Wave wireless protocols. As far as I can tell the Eufy keypad uses Wi-Fi. So I suspect that the keypad would not be directly compatible with ST and therefore not capable of being supported by an edge driver.
Hi! Bud my keypad battery is dead and not charging?
There’s a article on the ring keypad Community here: community.ring.com/t/ring-alarm-gen-2-keypad-not-charging/112113 and here dockuniverse.com/how-to-fix-ring-keypad-not-charging/
Hey Bud
Will the ring door sensors that I already use in SmartThings automatically be available with the ring alarm without a reset and are other sensors like my third reality motions sensors enabled.
Also, I use my echos as speakers when doors and gate open and close so I’m thinking I could still do that with custom device handlers?
Thanks as always for the vid.
Yes, your Ring Door Sensors will continue to work as usual. There is an edge driver for the door sensor and you would need to exclude your sensors and reinstall them if you want to establish local control. If not converted to edge, the ring sensors will stop working once the ST IDE is terminated. About the echo devices, this driver has no influence on your echo speakers. They will work as usual.
Thanks Bud. Great vid as always.
@@jharsh3376 - Thanks!
Does this work with the gen 1 keypad
I believe the driver is specific to the Gen 2 Keypad. I would not hurt to download the driver to test it. If you find that it does work please DM me to let me know.
thanks for the video. Sorry but I can't download the driver because the link you provided says:You do not have permission to access the specified invitation. can you help me?
Hi Angelo. If you go to my website you can find a working link there: www.budshomeautomation.com/post/smartthings-edge-driver-and-routine-setup-for-the-ring-keypad-2nd-gen
@@BudsSmartHome I registered on the site but the link isn't working there either and it tells me I don't have authorization.
@angelodipasquale9038 - I know the driver works in the US and also in the EU but I’m not sure that it’s available on other hubs. Are you using either of those hubs? Here is the direct link to the driver channel : bestow-regional.api.smartthings.com/invite/QG2oLwAyYBl6 if you still cannot get access to the driver channel I would suggest that you reach out to the SmartThings Community at the following link: community.smartthings.com/t/st-edge-driver-for-ring-keypad-2nd-gen/248712?u=buds_smart_home
Can you use any keypad
The Edge Driver is specific to the Ring Alarm Keypad Lloyd.
@@BudsSmartHome do you have to buy the driver
@@lloydrogers8265 - No. You just need to follow the links in website article and download it to your SmartThings Hub: www.budshomeautomation.com/post/smartthings-edge-driver-and-routine-setup-for-the-ring-keypad-2nd-gen
@@BudsSmartHome how do you add it to the keypad
You need to follow the directions on my website. The driver is assigned by the SmartThings hub when you add the keypad to SmartThings using the SmartThings app
