Do you need the Wink Hub or will this work independently?

Yes it works by itself, although whether it works is altogether another issue by itself....

works independent - but do not depend on the spotter to work unattended over a long period of time. I've had 2, ran off AC, after a few weeks they got confused and had to be powered off/on to work again - they are nice "toys"

no you should not but mine never worked at all and if I was not in Australia I would have sent it back but cost more in shipping then the item is worth

Unfortunately, no. The hub provides the brains to communicate to the individual sensor. Without a hub (either the SmartThings hub, or another one that supports the Zigbee protocol), the sensor has no way of communicating its data to you.

You need the Insteon hub so that that it can communicate through the electrical supply to the garage opener I/O link. This also allows you set up text and email alerts , and to link events. It works great - I can check the garage door and control it from anywhere in the world. Same with my front' door, lights, cams, motion sensor, door sensors, leak detectors....

These sensors work with the Honeywell and 2GIG alarm system. They don't use wifi. I think wink uses zwave or some other mesh network. These use a different technology for security.

This headset need to be installed alone in one hub... Yeah it's need a hub USB just for it

All products on the Wink line can be shared between accounts allowing other users to have full control of the product. In this case, if multiple users have control of Aros in the Wink app, it will perform energy saving "auto-away" features only when all users connected to the unit are gone, and will not enter "auto-away" mode if any of the users are home.

Not too much info on the wink site but I would say no. 2gig has way more options. Shoot us an email if you would like to be set up with a system.. Sincerely, Smart Home Security

Yes ,if you connect them through a Wink Hub. The devices are wifi, but if you have the Wink hub you can use these to trigger actions by your other Z-Wave devices. I have one of these set to turn on my TCP lights when they detect motion or sound on full brightness ,and at 25% brightness when it gets dark.

I am not sure what the wink hub is but I would recommend you check out other web type cams. I have had two of these for quite awhile and they are notoriously slow. I own VueZone and Dropcam also and of the three Izon is the worst. I will give them credit for design because it does have a nice look,

This and all Z-Wave devices are compatible with the SmartThings hubs. It appears Z-Wave is not compatible with Wink protocols.

I bought the older version of the Spotter, like in these Amazon photos from Depot. Mine work with the free Wink app on both my iPhone and Android phone. No monthly fee and no hub needed, just WiFi. I love all the different sensors built into this little box.It can be a bit unreliable but seems to work better when plugged into the included power supply.I like this concept and will buy more. I see a new version is now available too.

Yes, you have to a controlling hub. It might work with other Z-Wave hubs but it's intended to be used with the SmartThings hub

Do you need to have the interactive monitoring to be able to have the separate pins or is that also available for the basic $14.99 service?

I had this paired to a Smartthings v1 hub and it was orphaned when I upgraded to a v2 hub. However on the Smartthings app, there is a general exclude option under Z-Wave utilities, I activated that, removed the battery and reinserted and it was confirmed as done! Later removing and reinserting the battery again allowed me to pair it again. Hope this helps!

The Hub2N is all you need IF the cabins aren't too far away AND/OR wifi has a hard time getting through the walls. Otherwise you will need a receiver at each cabin along with a bridge or access point. Good luck!

I am not sure about the hub thing. I do know, these things are awesome, I plugged them in, they have two remotes, and its range is incredible, better than my Wi-Fi signal. I bought a set for my daughter/husband, they love them too! Highly Recommend!

Yes it can. You need the Insteon Hub (a hardware product) as well as this and then you can control it through the Insteon for Hub available at the Amazon App Store.
