GE 46203 Unknown device

I have a GE (Jasco?) 46203 dimmer installed and trying to add it to OpenHAB. Paper UI shows it as unknown device. I see it in DB, IDs seem to match, except version. This is what shows for my thing:

zwave_beaming	true
zwave_class_basic	BASIC_TYPE_ROUTING_SLAVE
zwave_class_generic	GENERIC_TYPE_SWITCH_MULTILEVEL
zwave_class_specific	SPECIFIC_TYPE_POWER_SWITCH_MULTILEVEL
zwave_deviceid	12853
zwave_devicetype	18756
zwave_frequent	false
zwave_listening	true
zwave_manufacturer	99
zwave_neighbours	
zwave_nodeid	5
zwave_plus_devicetype	NODE_TYPE_ZWAVEPLUS_NODE
zwave_plus_roletype	ROLE_TYPE_SLAVE_ALWAYS_ON
zwave_routing	true
zwave_secure	false
zwave_version	5.53

Any suggestions?

Let me take a wild guess and assume you are running version 2.4.
That database entry was updated well after 2.4 was released. If you wait until tomorrorw, OH 2.5 stable should be available.

3

Yeah, it’s 2.4. Will try upgrading tomorrow. Thanks.

5

OK, didn’t work right after upgrade, double checked that both OpenHAB and Z-Wave binding were showing version 2.5. After reboot it started to work: sees the dimmer as expected now.

Have you found a way to speed up the transition between off and on? I like to make my lights turn off and on instantly but don’t see that config option in the thing settings for PaperUI like there is with the gen 1 dimmers.

7

just trying to bump my previous post. Is there any way to speed up the transition between off and on like you could the older model switches?

… which has nothng to do with the original poster’s issue. You should open a new thread and provide us volunteers SOME information details on what you are using.

I was trying not to clutter up the threads with simple questions. made a thread and asked my question as i cant find the answer after searching.
