Samsung Multipurpose Sensor (2018) as Garage Door Sensor?

Can the Samsung Multipurpose Sensor (2018) be used as a garage door sensor with Hubitat?

Evidently you need to set it to garage door sensor in the driver so it uses the right sensors for tilt, etc.

I haven’t gotten the tilt feature to work with HE. But I still use one to monitor the garage door. I mounted the transmitter towards the top of the garage door and the magnet on the rail and it works great.

The sensor just shows up as a Generic Zigbee Contact Sensor for me. I don't know if there is a way to make use of the tilt or accelerometer sensors in Hubitat.

Here’s a thread with some other folks talking about this
2018 Samsung Sensors . If you get it working I’d love to know how you did it

Just picked up one of these newest Multisensors and it paired perfectly with the built-in driver. When configured as is in this pic you can see active or inactive on a dashboard tile using the attribute acceleration.
