AEON Labs Smart Dimmer 6 not in DB?

[jensedlund]

Hi,

I just attempted to add an AEON Labs Smart Dimmer 6 to my Z-wave network. It was found and I added it, but it isn’t identified properly. Manufacturer ID and such is recognized, though:

Manufacturer: 0086 "AEON Labs"
Type/ID: 0003:0063
Firmware esrion: 0.0

The OpenHAB help texts suggests it’s missing in the DB and that I should raise an issue, so that’s what I’m doing. Can I fix this by editing the config files myself or do I need too wait for an update/patch?

The controller is an UZB, and OpenHab is the latest stable version (2.1) running on an Windows 10 box. Everything works fine, including other AEON Z-wave products.

It seems that ZW099 is already included in the Z-Wave database: http://www.cd-jackson.com/index.php/zwave/zwave-device-database/zwave-device-list/devicesummary/275

Maybe try to delete the thing, remove the /var/lib/openhab2/zwave/nodeX.xml and try to discover it again…

ok thanks I was just doing that and yes. It worked. Perhaps that should be one suggestion in the help text, but I don’t know where to post that idea - new here.

The correct place to capture this info would be: http://docs.openhab.org/addons/bindings/zwave/readme.html
More specifically: http://docs.openhab.org/addons/bindings/zwave/readme.html#device-initialisation
and/or http://docs.openhab.org/addons/bindings/zwave/readme.html#unknown-devices

Back to the original purpose of this thread: Documenting openHAB There is so much to be done… I am reviewing now the list @ https://github.com/openhab/openhab-docs/issues It would be great for more people to contribute also! It will make it easier for all. I use the online editor in github when browsing https://github.com/openhab/openhab-docs and it’s very easy (no need to install jekyll or anything else) [image]

Welcome to the openHAB world (where documentation is always in need of improvement )
