I have successfully added the Ring Alarm Flood / Freeze Gen 2 sensor directly to the HE, however it's seen as a Ring Contact Sensor Gen 2, so only the tamper option shows state change and the water sensor contacts do nothing.
I'm trying to get this to work as a true water sensor but I've had no luck. Has anyone else done this?
TIA
Wow.. you got it to include.. I have this but never completed the driver for it as it was really hard to get it to include properly.. I'll whip up a driver for it..
I was able to change the device type to Generic Z-Wave Water sensor, I lost the tamper option, but now wet\dry works.
As far as including, i found the trick to be holding the reset button AND the tamper switch while inserting the battery. Blue light came on, started flashing, appeared immediately in discover mode.
Ahhh.. so their inclusion instructions are wrong.. Nice..
Just curious, were you able to get this working following his directions? The ring leak sensor seems to currently be the cheapest zwave leak sensor right now.
I've been using it about 3 weeks now, works great. I've actually ordered 2 more and installed since then. I use the Generic ZWave Water sensor drivers, so I dont get tamper, but I get battery and wet/dry.
This sensor doesn’t report temp?
No, not with the generic zwave water sensor.
The built-in drivers available in HE don't have the Ring flood \ freeze sensor, so I had to use generic.
The sensor doesn't support that.. The "Freeze" part is just a notification when the temperature drops below freezing.. So there is obviously a temperature sensor in there it just isn't used in reporting..
So what capabilities does the built-in driver support?
I see battery, tamper and water sensors.
What are the events that come out for freeze?
Is there documentation for built in drivers as to their capabilities?
When one looks at user added drivers, you can see their capabilities they expose in the "Drivers Code" page.
Hello. Interested in Ring Sensor "Freeze" monitoring as well. Can the driver be modified to report a "Freeze" on/off switch or condition? The device obviously supports this as it would report a "freeze" condition in the Ring App. Just asking if the capability for this could be added to the drive?
Thanks,
Ron
Using the Ring flood\freeze sensor driver provided with the Unofficial Ring Connect driver, there is NO freeze data provided, just battery, wet/dry and tamper.
I use Generic ZWave Water sensor for the Ring water sensors I have directly paired with my HE.
You might want to consider an Aqara temp and humidity sensor (zigbee) to monitor when temp falls below 32deg F.
Bryan - can you comment on the capabilities supported?
Yes
Yes.. These 
Nothing at the moment as there is no matching capability.
thx Bryan - can you please add something for freeze? (or custom attribute)?
Hello, I've moved these Ring Leak/Freeze devices off of my Ring system to Hubitat. I know the device reports (on Ring) when a temperature is above 40, or below 40 degrees. So it does have a type of "switch" for temperature. However it is fixed at 40 degrees and I understand that. I see this as an on/off switch attribute. This is what I would like added if possible. I just want to be able to use a capability that the device includes in Hubitat. I know I can buy other sensors such as the Aeotec Water/Temperature/humidity sensors.. I have 8 of them. Just trying to use my old Ring devices to their fullest.
Thanks,
Ron
Don't know if this helps but I ran the "Get Attributes App" for the Ring Flood/Freeze sensor and here is what was returned:
| Device | -= Capabilities =- |
|---|---|
| Leak Sensor - Master Sink Ron | [RelativeHumidityMeasurement, Configuration, Battery, TamperAlert, WaterSensor, TemperatureMeasurement, Sensor] |
| -= Attributes =- | |
| [battery, tamper, humidity, temperature, water] | |
| -= Commands =- | |
| [configure] |
Interesting.
It seems the device does not initialize a setting for temperature during configure/setup.
It would be good if it fills something in for low, that it fills something in when not low...
Hello. All I know is that in the "Ring" application, the device sends an alert notification if the temperature falls below 40 degrees. It seems to be a hardware switch that is either set on/off by the 40 degree temperature. I would assume that below 40 degrees the switch is set on. However I'm just speculating. The device does have a below 40 degree alert somehow.
