Hi,
Setup:
OpenHAB 4.1.2
RaspberryPI 5 (Bookworm, Openhabian)
Aeotec ZWave+ USB Stick, ZWave Binding 4.1.2
I’m running a ZWave network since a few years now. Recently I had a few problems (nodes not responding) for which I had a closer look into my ZWave network. Every time I start Openhab I get two warnings:
2024-04-29 11:22:01.994 [WARN ] [l.commandclass.ZWaveThermostatSetpointCommandClass] - Reached max tries to init the setpont Furnace, this will be our last attempt
2024-04-29 11:22:08.505 [WARN ] [l.commandclass.ZWaveThermostatSetpointCommandClass] - Reached max tries to init the setpont Moist Air, this will be our last attempt
These messages, at least the second one are odd, as I don’t have a moist measuring device. I used to have one, ages ago, which was removed from the network. So I was looking into the folder
/var/lib/openhab/zwave
where I found a lot of xml files describing ZWave devices. And not only my current devices, but also about devices which have been excluded from the network.
For two identical devices (Eurotronic Spirit Thermostat ZWave) I found differences in the XML content. One of the files contained a tag about moist (which the other doesn’t):
<entry>
<setpointType>MOIST_AIR</setpointType>
<setpoint>
<setpointType>MOIST_AIR</setpointType>
<initialised>true</initialised>
<initCount>0</initCount>
<outer-class reference="../../../.."/>
</setpoint>
</entry>
which is wrong, as the device does not support moist measuring. Looks as the binding is trying to initialise a setpoint which just doesn’t exist.
Now, before I start playing with the XML files and perhaps screwing up system I have the following questions:
- First of all: Is it something I should worry about? Can it affect the ZWave network negatively?
- Does it make sense to edit these files at all? Or are they generated and will be overwritten the next time? The file dates are mostly from today (last restart of OpenHab)
- Or should I deleted the all?
- If there is nothing I can do here, how can I get a correct device description?
Lots of questions, I hope there’s some experience on the secrets of Zwave networks
