Is there a tutorial for all of the sensors? I know how to use an Arduino, but just as a precautionary measure :)

If you hunt around enough, you can find the different parts and sort it out. If you want easy to learn and we'll supported, get Sparkfun or Adafruit products. If you want a lot of variety for low cost and are willing to work at it, go with this set. Some are easier than others, and a surprising number work as a simple "button" input.

I did purchase this sensor pack and found that the documentation is non-existent. That being said most of the sensors are very simply and could be hooked up to Arduino by first identifying the sensor connection mode (digital input, digital output or analog input) Once the `mode' is identified, then any tutorial which uses the same `mode' would be applicable. If you have questions on a specific sensor, then let me know which one and I can take a look to see if I can figure out the specifics.

No. I'm using several of these sensors. You do need a controller to link the sensor to actions, like turning on lights or sending an email. The controller is more flexible if it is connected to the internet, or at least a LAN, but it's possible to do useful things without that.

I installed these on my ADT Pulse system. My control panel is a honeywell/ademco based system. Go into programming mode and see if you can add a sensor? Obviously it's all wireless and takes literally seconds to add this sensor to your system

The unit is designed to monitor temperature, power, and water. It is not designed to incorporate other sensors. There is only one water sensor included and one input in the controller for the water sensor. I don't know if you could tie additional ones into the line for the control unit. The unit is designed for use in one building although you could conceivably locate the water sensor in one area (within 100' of the control unit), a basement for instance, and install the control unit in a garage to monitor the temperature simultaneously.

Yes, but the sensors only work for a few weeks, I had to returned mine. It's not worth it. It's will cost you more to install than the product.

I contacted my home security company to get a list of sensors that are compatible with my existing security system. This one was one of those in the list. I would suggest you to do the same.

The system is armed, not specific sensors. What you could do is remove specific sensors from the sensor & add it back later, but takes a bit of effort.

None what so ever.I stopped using it after 6 months as one sensor failed and too much hassle to get a replacement.

This is Ryan from the SmartThings Support team. Out-of-the-box support for camera monitoring is on our product road map. We're working on an integration as we speak but it's not quite ready for production. We'll do our best to keep you updated on our progress and you can check out our blog for the latest information: http://blog.smartthings.com/.In the meantime, if you have any questions, please feel free and contact us at support@smartthings.com.

I use the multi-sensor with my SmartThings Hub to get updates on my iPhone letting me know if my garage door is open or shut. I know when my kids arrive home from school, or when anyone else enters through the garage door. I also programmed the sensor to let me know if the door is left open for a specific length of time.

HiIf you already bought one of the iSmartAlarm packages the next step is to configure the system. All the necessary is included.If you only bought the sensor it is mandatory to acquire at least the prefe

Google the sensor and display to find the instructions. I seem to recall that there's a jumper on the circuit board that you need to set for one or two temp sensors. So I'd take a look at the docs before I gave up.

Thank you for the response to my previous question, all that they cost four sensors and since I them search to buy them, since in amazon I found several but not which is the indicated one for the monitor

I was not able to get this sensor to work becuause I was not able to access the installer menu. You have to enter the installer menu to tell the system to "learn" that there is a new sensor installed.You need to know IF you can access the installer menu (requires a special code) before you order any new wireless sensor or else (like me) you will not be able to use it. We ended up replacing the entire GE system with a DSC system from ADT. The DSC system has hard wired door sensors so we do not have to worry about batteries and wireless codes etc.

I would be careful about overloading the sensor. Also, don't run this test in a closed garage, for your own health.

I have no idea. You would have to contact Amazon or the manufacturer. My feeling is, why not get the sensors? They can't be that much more money and then you'll have extra parts just in case.

Go to www.pisector.comThen go to "alarms", pull down and click "sensor/detector". They have individual and multi-packs available. Good luck.
