It seems I have run into some issue that probably @chris would be able to assist with:  
I have started to try using some [Z-Wave.me](http://Z-Wave.me) WALLC-S wall controllers.  
Getting these devices to be properly detected already took me a while, but when I managed to do so (after a lot of including/excluding and sending NIF), I wasn’t able to change any properties, I kept getting an error 500 in Paper UI, after some further digging in the console, with the error:

```auto
Duplicate channels zwave:device:4b85e013:node10:scene_number

```

And indeed, it turns out that two channels are named `scene_number`.  
Upon looking up the device in the device database, I also found some issues there:  
[https://www.cd-jackson.com/index.php/zwave/zwave-device-database/zwave-device-list/devicesummary/145](https://www.cd-jackson.com/index.php/zwave/zwave-device-database/zwave-device-list/devicesummary/145)

What should I do to get this fixed?

Thanks in advance

I have deleted the channel associated with `SCENE_ACTIVATION` - I’ll try and do an update later today and it should solve the issue.

Great, thanks! I got everything working pretty much the way I wanted in the end, so I was able to change everything except the name and the location. So if I could also do that, that would make me happy 🙂

I can also confirm the Wall-C S is working properly for me with latest development binding snapshot.

Not trying to bump an old thread, but this seems to be the newest thread I can find with the same issue I’m currently having.

I’m trying to add a brand new Honeywell Z-Wave in-wall toggle light switch, and i’m getting the very same error:

```

Thoughts? Using latest stable release of openhab2, and latest binding (2.5.4).
