phileaton Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 We are happy to announce open beta testing for version 2 of our popular Wink Driver Pack. This version is a major overhaul with greatly expanded device support and will be a free update to everyone who currently owns the driver. Features Ring Doorbell button press detection Ring Doorbell motion detection Arlo, ArloQ, Nest Cam and Ring stick up cam motion detection Blind support Door lock support MyQ and other Wink garage doors Dimmers and binary light switch drivers supporting Z-wave, ZigBee, Philips Hue, Lutron and others Sensors including leak detectors, smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, motion sensors and others Read access to any device in your account through a new generic Wink device driver Greatly simplified driver structure and easier installation with drop down lists of device names How do I get it? The open beta can be activated by having your dealer install the driver files linked to below and activating with the key “BETA”. Download How can I help? We are interested in any feedback you have. We are especially interested in hearing from users with blinds and door locks. What happened to the old drivers? The older drivers for different devices such as spotter, refuel, garage doors, etc. are discontinued in favor of a simpler driver structure. Now all these devices can be represented with a single generic Wink device driver. This driver will automatically configure itself upon linking with your account and setup all the appropriate variables, relays and contacts. This allows us to support many more devices and reduces the number of drivers that have to be maintained. We still have the binary switch and dimmer drivers in order to provide the appropriate UI experience in navigator. Your other devices can also be displayed in navigator by linking relays and contacts to the appropriate control4 generic device drivers. Details are provided in the documentation. Limitations and requirements This driver requires OS 2.9 or later Video on cameras and doorbells is not supported Wink is in the process of updating their integration with Rachio. We will try to add support for sprinklers when this is completed. We have not yet implemented a thermostat specific driver. It’s the next thing on the roadmap for this driver. msgreenf, turls, thedriverslab and 3 others 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using the beta, If I want to add a ge motion sensor will i need to add a wink hub? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phileaton Posted March 4, 2017 Author Share Posted March 4, 2017 if it's the GE portable smart motion sensor then yes. Anything that uses zigbee, kiddie, or zwave radio needs to go through a hub wifi products like MyQ and thermostats do not. By the way, the thermostat driver supporting Ecobee, Nest, Honeywell and zwave is almos ready for testing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mallom Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I tested the driver today and it is working great. Most of the limitation comes from the Hub not paring the Fan controller correctly (it recognizes as a dimmer in Wink). But the relay connection with a generic Fan driver gives me On and Off and I can live with that, maybe in the future when Wink recognizes the device correctly you could implement High, Mid, Low and OFF. The feedback is really good. I will add more devices next week and keep testing. Keep us posted on the Rachio integration!

mallom Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Today I added a Caseta Pro dimmer to Wink and then to C4 using the Dimmer driver. Everything working good except that I was unable to add the bulb to my C4 scenes. Is that the expected behavior? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mallom Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Hello phileaton! I was just wondering if you have any news in regards to rachio integration. This would be amazing. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phileaton Posted March 29, 2017 Author Share Posted March 29, 2017 The Rachio Website still shows that Wink is updating their integration. Once this is done we can begin work on integrating with Control4. http://support.rachio.com/article/326-how-to-use-rachio-on-wink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfissure Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 I want to use the wink driver to integrate my myQ garage door. I understand from other threads in this forum that I don't need a wink hub for that purpose. Still I would like to get a sense for how this would work before I ask my dealer to install the driver. The driver pack has 5 drivers. I am looking at the Synapse Wink API Driver Manual from version 1 of the driver pack. It is here: https://www.houselogix.com/shop/wink-driver-pack Does the same installation process apply to version 2? The manual says to first install the Wink API Connect driver. The next step is to enter the Wink username and password. I assume that I can do that in my own Composer HE after my dealer has done step 1. Is this correct? (This worked with previous driver installations for other devices) The next step is to configure device drivers where you add additional Wink drivers. Here is where the process is not clear to me. I see that in version 1 of the driver pack there is a Wink_Garage_Door driver but not in the new one. I suppose that means I don't need to install a separate device driver for myQ. Am I correct? If so does this mean I am basically done after the previous step? (And subsequently entering my wink username and password). At what point will I provide my myQ username and password so that the Wink driver can find my garage door? Thank you for any help you can provide.

phileaton Posted May 6, 2017 Author Share Posted May 6, 2017 We are working on version 2 documentation. We no longer have a garage door driver. We replaced it with the generic device driver and it can be used for anything execept lights, thermostats and sprinklers. Everything else is the same.

pfissure Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Thank you very much for the speedy reply! So just to be clear, after installing the Wink_API_Connect, my dealer should also add Wink_Device? And do you know if I have to give him my Wink password or can I enter it using Composer HE after he installs the driver? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phileaton Posted May 6, 2017 Author Share Posted May 6, 2017 I'm not sure that HE will let your credentials. I usually recommend they let you enter it in Composer Pro to protect the account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed Peters Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 @phileaton I'm having a hell of a time getting things to work with your driver, and I've had two people take a look at it, both with mixed results. 1. There is a huge resource suck happening on the driver...keeps trying to ping an outside site and trying to ping a wink activation server--but just gets stuck in a loop. 2. The garage door function works--then doesn't work--then works again. Can you help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mallom Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 For some reason the device I have linked to Wink is not reporting its status to Control4. I am unable to control it and when I try to, my system slows down for about 15-30 seconds.

Jed Peters Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 weird. it's now been 5 days since I've attempted to contact this developer both through here and their website. It appears that they are not supporting their drivers, either. Sad. Hate to be out the 200 bucks plus all the integration time and costs.
