You're a superstar. This has elded me since buying this and never got it to work...but now I can tell when my little one tries to open doors in the middle of the night. Thanks again. Hugely appreciated.
Bud, another great YT Video showing how to enable all the various sounds that were possible on the older classic app using the Dome Alarm. I love this Dome product & thanks to you, I can continue using it with the Speaker Companion automation in the new ST’s app!
Ohh.. well, thanks for the turorial.. but apparently Skybell HD is no longer functioning in/with smartthings? That's why my doorbell repeater quit working after migrating to the new app. Well shoot. Any recommendations for a skybell hd replacement? (off to google I go)
Hi John. According to the ST App the following video doorbells are supported: Aeotec Doorbell 6; Ring Video Doorbell; Ring Video Doorbell 3 and Ring Video Doorbell Pro - See More here: aeotec.com/smartthings/compatibility/ring.html
Thank you Bud Just received the dome siren after watching this video and followed your steps for the chime set up and when I get to play on this speaker it does not let me proceed to the next step where you mentioned the echo chimes not working
Good morning Jeff. Did you install the get hub code to set up the device handler? If you look at the description under the video you will see that it’s necessary to set up the device handler for the dome alarm to get this functionality. After setting up the device handler go into the device list and make sure to select the dome siren as the “type” of device. Here is the get hub code and the article for setting up the siren: Dome Siren Device Handler (RAW GitHub Code): tinyurl.com/ydfljzx2 SmartThings Community Article on Dome Siren: community.smartthings.com/t/release-dome-siren-official/75499 Note: you will not see all the bells and chimes displayed in the new app if you look at the device properties. However you should be able to see the Dome Siren display in speaker companion when setting this up. Let me know.
@@BudsSmartHome thank you Bud I missed that lol I’m new to this I came across a video kinda explaining GitHub will try to follow your link and see if I manage to get it done thank you very much for following up
Great explanation, Bud! Thanks. A question though. Have you tried to add a second SmartApp for the same Dome Siren but with a different chime for each sensor (1 for front door, a different one for the back door, car in the driveway a third chime, etc.)
I actually tried and works very nice! So Bud, your findings works perfectly with one Dome Siren, two doors and distinct chimes for each of the doors! I just added one more time the Speaker companion SmartApp for the second door.
I have the same dome siren but it does not show up as an option in the speaker speaker companion app. It does show as a siren in smartthings app. Is there something needed for it to show in the speaker companion app?
Hello Frank. Thanks for your question. Yes this device will be viewable within the speaker companion app assuming that you use the device handler that I referenced in the video. Please look at the comments below the video. There you’ll find an article and the GitHub Raw Code which is needed for installing the device handler. I hope this helps.
Yeah I did setup the device handler and the siren shows up in smartthings the new app, but it still does not show up in the companion app. I have removed the device and device handler to try and add it again. Added the handler added the siren still only shows up as siren and not in companion app. Any thoughts?
Frank, did you select “custom message” under “play a notification”? You then need to type “Chime1” under “Play this message”. Under the heading “On the speaker player“ You should be able to select your Dome siren.
@@BudsSmartHome yes, it only lists my Sonos speakers not my dome siren. I actually tried all and it does not show up in the companion app. I am using the new smartthings app not the old one. Also in smartthings it is lists as a siren and once I add the device handler and hit the dome button 3 times smartthings auto adds it. I am assuming that is bc of the device handler being added.
Frank, if the Dome Siren still doesn’t show up, then go into the SmartThings IDE and check to see if the Dome Siren in in your list of "Devices". If so, edit the device and check to see what "Type" of device is assigned. My chimes stopped working recently and the Dome Siren was not displaying in Speaker Companion. Checked the "Type" assigned to the device and I changed it form Z-Wave Device to "Dome Siren". It is now showing in Speaker Companion and "Chime1" is working again! :)
Did you have the Dome Siren set to chime previously? Yes is need to get some videos over to that group. Thanks for the reminder. Also, Thanks for watching and commenting.
Bud's Home Automations & Repairs I just use it for my alarm system. Was using echo speaks for door notifications. If you use SharpTools you will get all of the options of any device handler regardless of how it shows in the new app.
You can obtain all of the functionality described in this video using the official Custom Edge Driver for the Dome Siren. The driver link can be assessed on the SmartThings community forum or you can access the driver link and installation steps on my website. The Dome Siren install article is a premium article. It and over thirty other articles containing Custom SmartThings Edge driver info and links can be accessed for a onetime subscription of $10.

@@BudsSmartHome Much appreciated. This whole thing is confusing and unclear. Do you have a source for a rundown on what Edge does now/will do and how you fit in? Cheers
Hi Bud, I don't see the speaker companion app in my 'new smart app section. I only have the apps that I installed from the old smartthings app. Any suggestions?
Hi Kevin. Tap hamburger icon, upper left. Tap SmartApps. Tap the '+' sign. Find 'Speaker Companion' in the list. Tap on it and follow the instructions in my video...
Also Kevin, Speaker Companion is not available in all countries. Its availability is limited to the following regions: Canada, Germany, Great Britain, Ireland, Italy, Spain, and US.
@@BudsSmartHome ok well this will be my issue. In the Caribbean right now but heading to Canada shortly. Will check back when I arrive. Sorry for the late reply and thanks for your response.
Larry. Glad you enjoyed the video. Regarding your dome siren, has your done siren been added to smartthings and is it currently recognized by, and displaying within the smartthings app? Also, was this device newly added, or was it an existing device that was added a while ago?
I have the same issue. New dome siren, was able to add it to SmartThings, can control the siren on/off in the app and seems to work. When I go through setup of the speaker companion, it doesn’t recognize it as an option. Thoughts? Thanks!

This siren have different chime sounds? do I must use external speakers ? I want to buy Zigbee or Z-wave siren for security but I want to sue is also as chime for door opener etc, can you recommend of something ?
The dome siren that I featured in that video is the only siren that I have tested. That Dome siren has multiple tones. However, you must install a device handler to get that additional capability. I have siren and speaker recommendations in my Amazon store if you want to check them out. The link to my Amazon store is below my videos in the Video description. Hope this helps.
Hello Ray. Thanks for commenting. I demonstrate the Dome making a chime sound at 00:15 I also demonstrate the other capable sounds at video marker 01:48 Furthermore I provide a detailed explanation of the setup at video marker 06:36 Please note that this video shows how to install a device handler which is now obsolete. In a recent video I explain how to install the latest Edge Driver for the Dome Siren.
