Hey guys, I'm trying to do a doorbell notification. I'm using the Ecolink Door and window sensor and a current sensor switch. I have everything wired up but for some odd reason when I press the doorbell, I'm not getting an alert. Do I have everything set up correctly with the wiring or do I need to do something with the app? Thanks

Not sure how the current sensing switch works but have you tried running just 1 wire through it not both?

Does anybody know what that screw is for? Does it adjust the sensitivity level?

And when current is detected, does one of the lights turn on?

The red light should when current is detected, closing the relay

Also the more times you wrap your wire through the CT it will double your reading. So if your reading is to low to detect wrap it through the CT a few more times to get it at a higher reading.
