FAQS
Most ZigBee HA 1.2 compatible hubs/controllers support several of the same devices to be paired with them, but that’s really a question for Amazon support since you’re asking about their Alexa Echo devices.
No
No, only push notifications from the Alexa app
The Centralite Micro Door Sensor has a built-in temperature sensor, however, the functionality of this capability depends on the integration the device has with the smart home hub you’re using.
the maximum range of the sensor is 130+ ft. (40+ m) L.O.S, this keeping in mind that you don’t have any
obstacles from one device to another.
Depends on the feature. No humidity in echo
The sensor itself does not have a chime feature. However, if you use it with the Amazon Echo Plus, you can create a routine that “speaks” when the sensor is opened. For example, if you installed this on your front door, you could have Alexa say ” front door opened” each time the contact sensor was opened.
It is not weather sealed, or really the right kind of plastic to be exposed to UV to use outside. And taking a look at the circuit board, there is no conformal coating. So my best answer to you would be that is not a great idea, no. If you needed something short-term (say a week or so) and it wasn’t directly exposed to weather, it would probably work just fine, but for the long term, I would look for a more robust, outside-rated device.
Mine appears to give an update whenever the temperature changes by 1 degree F.
You can select the “SmartSense Temp/Humidity Sensor” device handler.
Yes it will work with the 3rd gen SmartThings hub without any extra stuff on your part. Just pare it and you will be good to go.
The Micro Motion Sensor (3328-C) is not rated for outdoor use or exposure to wet environments. Its operating temperature range is 0-40 degrees C, and the humidity range of 0-90% (non-condensing).
The holes are intended for visual feedback when pairing the device with a HUB/Controller.
Yes, it will work with the 3rd gen SmartThings hub without any extra stuff on your part. Just pare it and you will be good to go.
