Hi Matt is it possible to add a secondry Smartthings hub to this setup to be used in a partioned system using the same R-PI source.

Quote: you have added via the \'add response\' button in the ComfortAlarm Bridge device.which menu I find add response ? at ST ? in initial scan ST not find \"responses\" My problem now : 1. all my lamp are dimmer that use momentary switch ( short press for on/off, long press dimming function ) . I have about 30 group of lamps, consist of fibaro group and hytronik dimmer control ( http://www.hytronik.com/products/dali-tr...d2200.html ). For Hytronik ,in comfort control menu 1 should set pulse few seconds in order to make same response with manual switch. So if there is no setting about pulse response, become unreliable using on/off at ST Things, i should click on or off several time , some time success to make it \"on\" sometimes not....Amazon alexa become useless, isnt it ? 2. the status device at ST not same with the real status of the device/lamp , annoying right ? 3. i have motorized gate, any command at alexa using \"open/close\" instead of turn on/off ?

Hi Matt.
I appear to be having some difficulty in changing the published devices... - I noticed that I\'m missing a couple of devices (Comfort counters) that I really want to have in ST... I downloaded the alarm.config from UHAI.. I noticed that one of the counters I wanted wasn\'t in there in the first place, so I added it...Whilst there, - and bearing in mind what you\'ve previously said about discovery limitations, I decided to remove a bunch of devices that I could do without (I\'m currently at 123 devices discovered in ST by the Comfort Manager smartapp). I reckon I must have removed 20 or so flag devices from the config file.Saved it.. uploaded it (apparently sucessfully)... restarted the service.. In the ST app I\'m attempting rediscovery... Automation>smartapps>Comfort Manager>Next It goes into the discovery screen, it says \"discovery started\" it shows the already-existing 123 devices previously found, and sits there with a spinny-wheel indefinitely... It never discovers any new devices.. I have a big red remove button at the bottom, but I\'m wondering if that will delete *all* the devices already discovered? - I don\'t really want to do that, as I\'ve already spent a fair while re-naming them in ST, grouping them into rooms etc... - Is there a way I can *selectively* remove devices that have previously been discovered? - I guess 123 devices has hit the limitation which is why I presume it won\'t discover any more... Also, according to the UHAI webpage, I\'m running 1.0.1a - but it says no upgrade is available, however the releases thread states 1.0.1c is the latest... Cheers. Paul G.

It should find the new devices so long as you have uploaded the alarm.config file and restarted the service. Since there are so many it may take a while (ST has a limit of something like 5 devices a minute - and it will have to discover all the devices, not just the new ones). You have the latest version, 1.0.1a is the newest 1.0.1c is still in the oven behind 1.0.1b  Thanks, Matt

This will create a new thing called \'ComfortAlarm Response\', you need to click it and use the cog to set the response code for on and off and rename it. This should then be able to call the responses to solve (1). 2. Occasionally (usually due to a hub or Pi restart) the ST thing and comfort device can get out of sync - use the refresh button in the ComfortAlarm Bridge thing to resynchronise everything. 3. Unfortunately the Alexa / ST integration doesn\'t provide the flexibility to change the action words - we are stuck with On and Off. We are looking at a richer Alexa integration but it requires the development of an Alexa Skill (which increases the complexity) and requires a cloud service hosted by us to do it - which can be expensive  . I\'ll let you know how we get on.Thanks, Matt

When you use Responses here, are the Responses executed using The Response Number in the CCLX file?
If so then be careful as the Response number can be changed by Comfigurator when you edit responses eg the previous response is edited to increase the actions beyond 8 then the Response uses up the next response number, so the response number does not point to the correct Response It is better to map to Counters which trigger Counter Responses in Comfort. This gets around the response renumbering problem. Thisis why in the new UCMs eg KNX2, CBUS2, modbus, Zwave etc, mapping to Responses is not supported, instead mapping to Flags, Counters and sensors are yused

You can selectively delete devices by removing the instance of the device by clicking the cog on the device which will give you an option to delete it.I\'m not sure I follow exactly where you mean... I\'ve deleted the devices in the ST app just as you described... But when I go into:Automation>SmartApps>Comfort Manager>Next...There is a discovery screen, which says at the top \"Discovery started\" followed by 1 paragraph of blurb, followed by \"Select Devices (123 found)\" followed by a comma separated list of the 123 devices... That list of 123 has not altered since it was built several weeks ago after the initial discovery... if I remain on that screen, there is a spinny wheel appearing every few seconds so it certainly looks like it\'s doing something...That list of 123 includes the devices that I have since deleted in the ST app...If i select any device in the list, the screen moves to the tickbox list where I can select the devices I want to publish to ST... I can\'t delete devices there - all I can do is tick or untick... I think my problem is that once discovered by Comfort Manager, those devices seem not able to be \"undiscovered\"... and because there\'s already 123 of them, I guess it\'s hit the limit and won\'t ever find any more unless & until I can remove some from the list... As I say, I have the option to delete the \"entire\" list of 123 and start discovery again, but that would lose quite a bit of effort I\'ve already done customising all the names, & putting them in the right groups etc... What I really need is a way to delete devices from that initial discovery list.. - I\'ve already removed them from the alarm.config file, uploaded it & restarted the service... IF I delete everything & start again, no doubt it will discover the set of devices that I actually want... - but I\'d have to re-do all that customisation... :-( Is it possible for you to amend the \"tickbox list\" screen, so as well as tick/untick to publish to ST, I can also delete?
