Not Loud Enough
A very soft sound. Should have known better, like a computer bios beep. Nothing like the original key pad bell for when a door opened.
Buzzed
Worked
Great Product
I really enjoy Konnected in may ways I look foward to more App integration with Cameras and items like thatt.
Not good for a door beep
Piezo works fine but I would have liked it to be louder. I installed additional piezo sounders in old keypad locations and the sound is scratchy. Perhaps noise is picked on the wire between the Konnected Panel and the sounder. Working in Smartthings the beep is very delayed from when doors are opened. Worse is the sound not does not turn off if beep is programmed for less than 5 seconds but I don't want a 5 second beep. For now, I am not using them. Sounder is fine but not useful for my intended purpose.
Died within 1 year of install
While these are fairly cheap, disappointed I had to purchase another one since the first stopped working about a year after install.
worked like a charm until it didn't
I have a Home Assistant integrated Konnected setup. The "Buzzer" configuration was really easy. The volume of the buzzer is a bit on the low side. But after 3 or so days later the output type ports got "unavailable" on the device (including the buzzer), though all sensors still worked. I had to remove the integration, reset the konnected panel and start all over again. Monitoring the situation now
Door chime programming
Im having a hard time getting the door chime to work when our back door opens. Seems like it should be easier then what Im finding online. Maybe its me and my lack of knowledge with samsungs app interface. The rest of the door and window sensors work really will and happy with the Konnected products.
Great Door Beep Device
I was looking to replace the door beep from my traditional alarm system and this did the trick. Using the existing wires going to my 3 old keypads I was able to install the piezo inside each of old keypad housing. This way can have the classic door and window beeps.
Piezo sounder
The sounder worked fine. I had to get some Tech advice to get it programed in Smart Things but that was due to my lack of understanding of the App. Tech response was great. Quick and to the point.
So far so good
System running for a month already with no issues. Installed the piezo behind a tablet at the from door using the old key panel wires. Work as expected.
Piezo sounder
Easy install. Works as expected.
Not for me
The boards work as advertised and support was good. They helped me reflash the wifi board to correct a problem it being stuck in a reboot loop. The problem is the Hubitat hub. I'm not an engineer or software developer and you need some programming experience to setup your alarm system. I finally gave up. Unfortunately Konnect won't take back used hardware, so if anyone wants a 12 zone system for cheap, contact me. edlbear@yahoo.com
Piezo sounder... my feedback
First, I greatly appreciate these being offered for such a reasonable price in support of the Konnected system... the device works as designed. The Konnected board using one of the zones as an output can’t drive much more than 1 at a time. The output of the add-on board drives a couple in parallel okay... I have 4 connected in parallel this way and they are way muted as there is not enough output to drive them all. I’ll likely put together a power transistor setup to provide better drive on my setup down the road.
Piezo Buzzers
The Piezos are very easy to wire up. I wish the sound was able to be adjusted, but for this price they get the job done!
Excellent
Couldn't be happier!
