SmartThings MyQ

##Overview This version was branched off from copy-ninja's original version. While it works largely the same, the biggest difference is that it relies on a separately installed tilt sensor on each door. This allows the app to get instant status updates without needing to poll MyQ at all. This is necessary because MyQ/SmartThings have restricted the ability to poll the MyQ servers, although sending open/close commands still works as normal.

##Tilt Sensor Requirement Please note that this version does require that you acquire a separate physical tilt sensor for each of your MyQ doors. Here's an example of one you can purchase from Amazon. While this requirement is more costly and not ideal, the status updates tend to be much quicker and more reliable than using MyQ server polling.

##Optional MultiSensor Support (Accelerometer Only) This version now supports the additional use of an Acceleromter, as in a Samsung/SmartThings MultiSensor - again, one per door (not required for every door, either). If configured, the accelerometer will be used to more accurately track states of opening, closing, and waiting (the alarm before closing actually begins). Generally, this will return the visual status updates from the original version, but without making ANY status requests from the MyQ servers.

Installation Instructions:

Manually:

1. Log in to the SmartThings IDE. If you don't have a login yet, create one.
2. Load contents of MyQ Lite in SmartApps section. From IDE, navigate to My SmartApps > + New SmartApp > From Code. Click Save. Click Publish > "For Me"
3. Load contents of MyQ Garage Door Opener in SmartDevices section. From IDE, navigate to My Device Type > + New SmartDevice > From Code. Click Save. Click Publish "For Me" for both devices
4. In your mobile app, tap the "+", go to "My Apps", furnish your log in details and pick your gateway brand, and a list of devices will be available for you to pick. After you choose your doors, you'll then select the physical tilt sensor to go with each door.

SmartThings IDE GitHub Integration:

If you have not set up the GitHub integration yet or do not know about it, take a look at the SmartThings documentation here. Note that if you do not have a GitHub account or are not familiar with GitHub, the manual method of installation is recommended.

1. Add a new repository with user brbeaird, repository SmartThings_MyQ, and branch master. This can be done in either the "My Device Handlers" or "My SmartApps" sections
2. Go to "My Device Handlers". Click "Update from Repo". Select the "SmartThings_MyQ" repository. You should see the device types in the "New (only in GitHub)" section. Check both boxes next to them. Check the "Publish" checkbox in the bottom right hand corner. Click "Execute Update".
3. Go to "My SmartApps". Click "Update from Repo". Select the "SmartThings_MyQ" repository. You should see the SmartApp in the "New (only in GitHub)" section. Check both boxes next to them. Check the "Publish" checkbox in the bottom right hand corner. Click "Execute Update".
4. In your mobile app, tap the "+", go to "My Apps", furnish your log in details and pick your gateway brand, and a list of devices will be available for you to pick.

In the future, should you wish to update, simply repeat steps 2 and 3. The only difference is you will see the device types/SmartApp show up in the "Obsolete (updated in GitHub)" column instead.
