Thank you very much for the update.
Yes, I saw your message about downgrading August Pro Lock to the 1.59.0-1.8.15 firmware
and many other posts regarding August Pro locks.
Few years ago I picked up August Pro lock because it has Door Sensor and auto unlock
capability. Also lock was paired with ISY-994i HA hub. I did not have any single
problem with all these functions but I do not remember what firmware version lock had.
Two years ago I moved permanently in Florida and picked up the same August Pro lock
because I had very good experience with it.
Well, here in Florida I started to have many various problem with August Pro lock.
First - auto unlock became very unreliable. This is because I am on 9th floor.
When I am getting back to home WiFi connections connects/disconnects few times
and GPS signal is also flickering. This makes auto unlock function very confused and
as a result auto unlock almost always fails.
With the C-5 hub lock pairing was not solid
but was somewhat acceptable. When I switch to C-7 hub lock created a huge mess
for the ZWave network so, I removed it from a hub.
The reason why I am trying to pair August Lock with HE is to improve auto unlock
function. Also I am thinking to add NFC or RFID reader (so far did not find any
good one solution).
I also came across this Danalock V3 Smart Lock and thinking about replacing
my August Pro with this Danalock V3. If I decide to go with this replacement most
likely I will pick Zigbee version.
I am very interested in results for your conversation with August support.
So, please let me know what August support will/can do for improving
their August Pro locks.
Thank you,
