Smarthings and Honeywell total comfort thermostat

[user6604]

How do I connect Honeywell total comfort thermostat to smarthings. I linked through smarthings but when I add a device I have no option to use it. What am I missing?

Thanks, I am a novice

Can you describe what you want to do in more detail?

I want to be able to control my honeywell thermostat through smarthings. Thanks

Smartthings is another platform (Samsung) with it's own forum.
This is the Hubitat users forum.

sorry about that - thank you

[dnickel]

No problem.
We'll welcome you with open arms when you get your HE C8!

If you have Hubitat, there is no need to use Smartthings and link to Hubitat. There is a community based Honeywell integration for Hubitat.

[RELEASE] Honeywell TCC Total Connect Comfort Parent/Child Drivers

Today I'm releasing a new version of the HoneywellThermo-TCC driver. It's main purpose is for multiple thermostats on one account as discussed: The original driver uses an old, perhaps obsolete, certainly deprecated, unpublished Honeywell Cloud API. The Honeywell server(s) reject automated logins regularly. The solution seems to be "don't hit the login server too rapidly". Adding multiple copies of the original driver would certainly allow logins virtually on top of each other, causing more…

However if you really want to keep Smartthings, and bring devices into Hubitat, there is a different community based app for that.

[RELEASE] HubiThings Replica

A Hubitat application to allow real-time bi-direction updates between Hubitat and SmartThings devices, modes, scenes, weather and push notifications utilizing the SmartThings OAuth Cloud API. Includes the ability to have multiple ST locations with multiple ST hubs replicated to a single Hubitat hub. It is not a requirement to have a ST hub to operate mirror functions to cloud native ST devices. This solution requires a reasonable degree of understanding of both Hubitat and SmartThings.

is their a migration tool to simplify the process from Smarthings to C8?

No, that is like migrating from Apple to Android. Two completely separate ecosystems. There is no such tool to allow this.

No but some benefits are that it would be your last migration. Everything is 100% local unlike ST. You can backup both the zigbee and z-wave radios (unlike ST) so incase of total failure you can restore to the existing hub or a new one without having to re pair. You can do far more complex automations with either rule machine or Webcore (webcore is no longer on ST). A more diverse hardware compatibility than ST as well.
