Don’t try to add too many nodes as it can not support 232 like a static controller. This is because it has a load of node id reserved for virtual devices.

Looking at the ZWaveJS GitHub, you could use MQTT or Node Red to integrate a 700 Series controller with OH. However, that would be a lot of extra work.

They are doing a great job and I take my hat of to them but the amount of work they are having to do and it will only get worse. node-zwave-js/packages/zwave-js/src/lib/serialapi/misc at master · zwave-js/node-zwave-js · GitHub

if you look at the fixes they have noticed that in 7.15 the bitmask shifted. What they did not realise is that this is for LR support not a bug as the node id has increased in length. The serial interface is not guaranteed to be backward compatible as it is not an official interface.
