@apella12 Hi Bob, thanks for the suggestion. A bit more detail:
I have a Home Connect 620 Z-Wave Long Range smart lock ( https://community.openhab.org/t/recommendations-for-usb-z-wave-lr-and-optional-zigbee-sticks-for-openhab-5-on-raspberry-pi-5/167666) which is NOT recognized by the OLD OH 2.5.12. I tried but failed to add the lock into the OHzwave binding.
That’s why I bought the Aeotec Z‑Stick 10 Pro for my OH 5.1.0 server — I hoped it would detect the 620 lock immediately, but it hasn’t. I suspect the existing active Z‑Wave network may be causing the issue, but my Z‑Wave knowledge is minimal. I’m stuck and would appreciate any help or suggestions from you or others on the forum.
