With my system the keypads still continue functioning as they do now. My system then provides a browser interface, and interfaces with SmartThings to allow you to both arm and monitor the alarm remotely, and also to use the various zone sensors to trigger automation of other things in the house via SmartThings.
(and a few folks have replaced their NX6 or NX8v2 with an NX-8E and then sold their original main board rather than buying an NX-584e, and probably saved money that way) Unfortunately the NX-584e modules are becoming scarce though there are a few suppliers out there that still have stock. With my system you’d need an NX-584e comms module to connect to the NX-8v2 (since only the NX-8E panel has the comms on-board). Personally I’m not a fan of the new app anyway, but know eventually they’ll drop support (hopefully not before they’ve actually finished getting feature and functionality parity with the “old” app ) (if the existing device can support the memory requirements etc).įor now you can access the child devices through the new app, and even integrate with Smart Home Monitor by linking the states between SHM and the SmartThings device using a few simple automations, but you just can’t see the zone status under the main device page, or do the initial configuration. I am looking at this as a potential option. Since smart-tiles are not supported by the new app, there’s no way currently to get much of the existing functionality without running a SmartApp on the device itself (which makes compatibility with other systems like Hubitat or HomeAssistant problematic). Much of the developer documentation has “coming soon” in many places Samsung have still not delivered half of the functionality that they promised. Unfortunately the functionality of the new SmartThings app is incomplete at best. (I’ll make sure to update the link in the doc) The latest ‘published’ device handler should be here:. You shouldn’t need to restart it manually. (you can just go to ipaddress/update in browser, so long as the computer is on the same network). The web interface has a page for updating the firmware.
You can just connect a browser to the IP address used by SmartThings for your device (or find the IP address from your router).
