First, I apologize for my poor English skills. I haven’t had enough practice lately.
I’ve been trying for a few days to understand why my Panel Hub S1 Plus isn’t displaying any sensors, even though I can add them there.
For example, my MCCGQ11LM window and door contacts are recognized, but I can’t select them on the Panel Hub S1 display.
A temperature sensor with temperature, humidity, and air pressure is also not fully displayed. I’m missing a card for the air pressure.
All data points and devices are available in the Aqara Home app.
I also own the G410 doorbell, whose hub is supposed to have similar functions to the M3 Hub. The hub in the chime is my only and primary hub.
But even when I add the Zigbee sensors there, they aren’t displayed on the S1 Plus.
I’ve tried integrating other Matter devices. A Roborock S8 is easily detected via the hub and displayed in the Aqara app on the iPhone, just as it is in Apple’s Home app. The Panel Hub S1 Plus doesn’t display the Roborock vacuum.
I’ve seen videos where Nuki door locks, lamps and other smart home devices from IKEA, and even Philips Hue bulbs were on the dashboards.
I now know that the Panel Hub S1 is not a Matter router. Matter devices can’t be added directly to it and require a different hub. But it should be able to use Zigbee and show the Aqara sensors.
I can program everything to the G410 hub, but it doesn’t pass anything on to the panel display. What’s wrong? Do I need to buy an M3 hub because the one in the G410 isn’t sufficient, or is the Panel Hub S1 Plus just a very expensive light switch?
As it turns out, I can’t use the Panel Hub S1. Unfortunately, I even bought two of them. They were intended for two rooms.
