Does somebody use the video gate from the linked devices?

I connected the doorbel to a binary sensor but when linking the device it doesn't show available in the app.

    I still didn't do it, but I think that for door bell you need to include sensor, relay module and camera to show as door bell.

    @David86vm,

     

    Just tested it for you, I didn't used it before.

    But this works.

    My doorbell is connected to a UBS.

    In the video gate I linked one of my camera's and the doorbell but no dooropener.

    When I pushed the bell I received a push message. After clicking on the message the Fibaro app comes up with the video gate page open.

    You see the live image and underneath the button for opening. 

    Note: My Fibaro app was running on the background as I allways have.

    And b.t.w. I don't use iPhones or iPad's! Just Android.

    Hello, David86vm good afternoon, I would like to give you my humble opinion.

     

    There are many variables that need to be checked for this to work, the first thing is to see that when the door bell is triggered there is a change of state in it, you can create a simple scene to verify this, otherwise you should Modify the parameters for it to work. Then you must update the data of your application either from your ipad or mobile phone. Then as they said in one of the post, if the user you are using don't have access to this device will not work.
    Now I ask you. Do trigger the bell after checking all this you do not get any push notification to link video gate? let us know

    Got the sensor working i needed to setup the input as toggle switch.

    Also it only works if you assign an relay to the door opener, that's a problem cause I dint have empty channels. When I press open somewhere a light turns off (will fix that later with an empty channel)

     

    Thing I need to get working is a push message of the video gate so the app opens with the gate image instead of basic page. Does anybody have that working already?

     

     In the mean time a made an scene which tells me there's someone at the door so can manually open the video stream.
