Hey Josh, I have my Vivint Sky Control Panel connected to my SmartThings hub as a secondary controller. It didn't work very well at first, but my firmware has been updated several times since then.

Today I installed a new Kwickset Smart Lock and when I associated it to my Vivint Panel it immediately showed up in my SmartHub too. All of my switches that are associated to my SmartHub are now showing up on my Vivint Panel. I can control any device from either place!

One thing to note is that I am part of Vivint's Beta program so I don't know if the (working) secondary controller functionality is public yet. Give it a try and let me know if it works for you.

If not, you might just need to be a little patient until the latest firmware comes out. First, unassociate all your z-wave devices from Vivint and SmartThings. In your Vivint Panel: • Go to the Installer Menu • Select Z-wave • Choose Learn Controller In Smarthings: • Add new Z-wave device • It should show as Unknown Controller or something similar Sometimes you have to do this a couple times, but your Vivint panel should become secondary to SmartThings Hub. It may take 15-20 minutes to do this. After that, you can add your z-wave switches/outlets to either Vivint or SmartThings and they will show up in both places, but there are a few things you need to add directly to Vivint (they will still show up in SmartThings) so that Vivint will recognize them in your Vivint phone app, etc: • Door Locks • Garage Openers • Thermostats Sometimes I had to do a Repair Z-Wave network on both Vivint and SmartThings to get it to work fully.

Some of my switches added to SmartThings took 15-60 minutes to show up in Vivint. Hi Thanks for the rundown on how to connect to the vivint panel, this is exactly what I was looking to do.

Before I start, I have some questions which I can’t seem to find answers to anywhere, however, if you have done this before, I’m hoping you can help! • If the Vivint control panel is secondary, does that impact the monitoring service at all? • How does the vivint panel react to things that are completely unrelated to security?

Does it just ignore them or do they not even show up in the vivint’s panel/ecosystem? • I have some aeon multisensor6’s which I use via smart things, I also have some vivint motion sensors which are solely used for security. If I link the panel and the hub, do they all have to be directly linked to either? I suspect vivint probably doesn’t have the ability to utilize all of the data coming from the multisensors ideally I’d like to include the motion from the multisensors in the alarm system but retain the routines using them on ST such as turning lights on as you walk into a room. • is there any lag introduced into vivint? Thank you in advance! It doesn’t impact monitoring because all the security-related equipment is not z-wave, it operates at 345Mhz (Smoke detectors, window/door sensors, motion detectors, etc.).

The panel will see z-wave switches and outlets that you add to smart-things but that is it. It won’t pick up your garage controller, thermostat, etc. If you add them to smartthings first. But if you add them to your vivint panel, SmartThings will see them too. You are correct about the multi-sensors and Vivint. Vivint won’t see their extended capabilities. I really wish that Vivint would proxy their security devices into the z-wave mesh as virtual devices!
