About this deal

The chime that comes with this doorbell can bridge up to three different buttons at the same time to receive information from multiple sources.

eventually, but it works right and is well understood so it’s the way I went. Adding Zigbee to Home Assistant Location - Indoors or Outdoors? Obviously if you require a siren for outdoors then you'll need to ensure that it's weatherproof! Equally so, while a battery powered device will be easier to install, do you really want to be getting the ladder out every time the batteries need replacing? Aeotec Doorbell 5 is lower in volume than 6 but I think it's very adequate to serve as doorbell. It's a doorbell after all, Aeotec has another Siren 5.Siren Volume - The louder the better, especially if it's an external Siren. It's pretty pointless if the siren is no louder than your microwave beeping at the end of its cooking time! Aim for something higher than 85db at 3m distance if possible. Now that we understand what a smart hub is, let us find out how to connect our two worlds using one. For illustration purposes, we will consider how to connect Google Home and Samsung SmartThings. I have “my” solution for the doorbell-button. The sensor is compatible with the Conbee II. So I have a way to trigger. And it will trigger more than just a chime 1. So a simple coco doorbell set is no solution, unless I buy a USB gateway to capture the CoCo or (in case of) MQTT signal like the Conbee does for Zigbee. If you’re serious about home automation, this is your best shot. Why? Because Z-wave is the best network to automate your Smart Home, and this smart doorbell without a camera is compatible with it.

It looks like you can also by a cable with a matching connector but only as part of some extension kit that costs 20€+ instead of the cents of the 3D print. Measuring the bell signal with an Aqara door sensor However, some smart home device use the Zigbee protocol for communication. To get such devices and Google Home talking, you need a middleman, such as a bridge or smart hub. Battery Powered or Mains Powered - Battery powered makes for an easier installation, but mains powered means never having to worry about replacing batteries or batteries failing at an inconvenient moment. Also consider that mains powered usually means the device will participate in any repeating / extending of a Z-Wave / Zigbee network. All Z-Wave products need to meet pre-specified standards and, thus, avoid the incompatibility issues that sometimes arise with Zigbee products. They are, therefore, almost always interoperable. Mesh Network Range

The installation is very easy and you don’t need to worry about DNS servers or hosting gates to make a button smart. The only thing necessary for you prior to having this smart doorbell is a Smart Home Hub. I then paired it succesfully with ZHA (it’s the default Zigbee integration running on Home Assistant). Some thermostats, such as Ecobee, use data from your routine to manage heating and cooling. You can use them to adjust temperature settings based on criteria such as the time of day and whether you are home or away. The sensor isn’t weatherproof, so be aware that you need to do the installation where is protected from rain and winter.

Just like Google Home, the Google Nest Hub does not offer support for Zigbee. Therefore, to control any Zigbee devices using Nest you would need a bridge or hub. If WiFi is no solution, I might need to extend the Pi with an extra gateway of any kind, or is there another solution besides Arduino creations. Here’s my automation (I use ZHA) for Doorbell announcement through Alexa, plus a mobile notification. There’s a delay: 10 that throttles the multiple events coming from SAGE. It’s working perfectly since 2 days. The SAGE is managed like a 2 button switch, one button for each input. I only use one. alias: Doorbell Alexa Announcement There is also a pin at the bottom (3rd from the left, 4th is GND) that would trigger the door opener but sensing is way easier than acting and I wanted to keep the (theoretical) interference with the system at a minimum. Therefore I decided to only listen to the bell signal on the top pin. The Zigbee ecosystem will last longer than Z-Wave devices before requiring a recharge. Congestion IssuesSiren Type - Is it a single sound or is it configurable? Better still, can different sounds be triggered independently? For example a simple "ding dong" when somebody pushes the doorbell button, a "blip" when somebody opens an external door and a full-on klaxon cacophany in response to an intrusion when the Smart Home alarm system is set to away mode. A " Standalone" Siren or Doorbell is exactly what you'd expect - a device where its only purpose is to operate as one.
