Hello,
I have been working to get my Z-wave me Z-Uno device to work with openHAB. The issue is that this device is not supported by openHAB given that the user defines endpoints. So a custom binding needs to be created and installed with a custom device .xml file.
My Process
I have been following this post but got stuck on Step 6: 4 - 6:
4. Stop OpenHAB
sudo systemctl stop openhab2.service
5. Add new jar to the addons folder (for my install, it is located at /usr/share/openhab2/addons)
6. Start OpenHAB
sudo systemctl start openhab2.service
I cannot figure out the password to use sudo
because password doesn’t seem to work. Also the addons file path in karaf will not be the same /openhab2/
even if I got to the next step.
However, I don’t think this is a problem because I was able to add the jar file to the openhab-3.3.0/addons folder and it showed up in my bundle:list
. I then activated it with bundle:start
, and my controller and Z-Uno were ‘online’ without a UI-Installed z-wave binding.

The Issue
The issue is that my Z-Uno does not have the channel options that I defined in the .xml. I found the xml files in this (org.openhab.binding.zwave\src\main\resources\OH-INF\thing\zwaveme) folder of the z-wave binding and packaged the jar file with Maven (Packaged File Name: org.openhab.binding.zwave-3.4.0-SNAPSHOT). For reference here is the Github repo of the zwave binding and the .xml that I added to the folder above.

I have looked at many threads about the Z-Uno but had no such luck. I did see that dependencies have to be declared if using the openhab-3-3-0/addons folder, but I wouldn’t know how to do that even if that were the issue. I also tried using the jsondb files to configure the channels which worked one day but hasn’t worked since.
If you have any ideas as to where I went wrong, pls let me know. I suspect that there is a database file of supported devices that I need to add the zuno xml file to or something similar.
Environment: Windows 10 install of openHAB 3.3.0; Zwave binding version is 3.4.0; Java 11
