First Alert Smoke/CO detector

Thank you! Knew I was missing something.

I just was looking through the forum and saw this post. Is there a way to show on tiles through Smartthings? I don’t see an option to add, but I may have missed it somewhere.

Hi Brad,
You can add First Alert Smoke detector to SharpTools through SmartThings app (classic). Go to “Automation”-> SmartApps → Select SharpTools → tap on “next” at right top to add additional Devices → “Which Sensors” → then check the box next to the smoke detector and Done.

@James has you pointed in the right direction with how to authorize additional devices in SmartThings that don’t have a core supported capability. In this case, we still need to add Hero Attribute tile support for carbonMonoxide and smoke for SmartThings - I’ll take a look at prioritizing this for an upcoming release. :slight_smile:

That would be awesome. Thanks @James and @josh!

@Brad_Yuly just an update that a recent SharpTools.io platform update added support for Custom Attributes in Hero Attribute tiles, so smoke and carbonMonoxide attributes should be available to you now. :grinning::+1:

I have the same detectors, and they are setup and working in Hubitat, but when I import all of my devices to Sharptools, they are the only ones that do not show up in the list. What am I missing.

I do not even see it as a category in the list like it shows other categories even though noting is listed.

@Albert_Mulder Since it doesn’t have the core supported capability, it is not showing as a category in the list. However, you can still add it via the “additional device page”. In Hubitat page, go to Apps → select SharpTools → click on “Next” at the bottom directly → click on “Which sensors” in the Additional Devices page → check the smoke detector and Done.

And don’t forget to change the tile layout to “Hero Attribute”, so you can select smoke and carbonMonoxide attributes to be displayed in the tile. :slight_smile:

How long does it take for them to show up in SharpTools? I have them selected in Hubitat as you described, but they do not show for me to add them in a rule or dashboard as a thing. Even Loged out and back in. still nothing.

It should show up pretty quickly. If you haven’t seen it available in the list after a couple minutes, there might be something went wrong. Try remove and re-add it using the approach I mentioned, and send us a ticket (https://help.sharptools.io) if it still doesn’t show up, so we can help look into it. Thanks.

Hi Guys, do you have an icon for Smoke and CO ?

I don’t believe we expose the smoke icon at the moment, but I can add it to the list.

In the meantime, the fire and skull icons have been used by some people for smoke and CO2 (respectively)

Out of curiosity, are you planning on using these with the Hero Attribute Inline Icons that are in beta? Or do you have some sort of virtual device that your smoke/CO is mapped to that you want to use an icon on?

Thank you for your reply.

Yes I want to use Hero Attribute

I have GOControl WADWAZ-1 on my Hubitat, But I still looking for a nice Driver.

I found one for Smoke, but nothing for CO2 Carbon Monoxide yet

How about a couple different options like these:

And what it would look like in the new Hero Attribute (inline icons):

Hi I need help here again, my Icon can not change the color when I changed the status.

We didn’t have an ‘active’ state defined for the smoke attribute. I’ve gone ahead and added detected as the active state in beta. Can you give it a try and let me know if that works for you?

Hm. The screenshot of ‘Current States’ from your hub doesn’t look right. It’s showing the value under an attribute called CarbonMonoxideDetector (which is the correct name of the capability), but the attribute is supposed to be named carbonMonoxide.

Is this a community developed driver or an official Hubitat one? Either way, I’m sure the driver developer would like to be aware of the issue so they can correct it.
