Huge thanks to all of you who have helped beta test the 2.2.0 release of the Konnected firmware and software. So far, feedback has been great and we're close to making the 2.2.0 release official.
This week I made a few more improvements to the 2.2.0 branch, and it's available now for beta testing. Notable improvements include:
- New! Support for digital temperature and humidity sensor modules. Now you can monitor the ambient temperature with Konnected and SmartThings* and an inexpensive DHT22 module. Buy one here for only $9.50.
- Better handling of rapid open/close events. Now, each open/close event will be logged. Previously sometimes only the last state would be logged if a contact opened/closed many times very rapidly.
- More memory utilization and stability improvements.
Please help us beta test the new firmware so we can quickly promote this to a stable release.
IMPORTANT: This release requires an update to the Konnected SmartApps on SmartThings. I recommend updating the SmartApps first before flashing the new firmware. To update the SmartApps, change the SmartThings Github integration branch for konnected-security to the "nodemcu-firmware-2-2" branch, and then click Update from Repo.
If you're using the new Temperature & Humidity sensor feature, there's also a new Device Handler to install.
To flash your device, use the Konnected Flash Tool to flash the two .bin files downloaded from here.
* temperature & humidity sensor support for Home Assistant is coming soon
