HomeSeer HS-WS200+ Z-Wave switch no longer recognized

[haavar]

I have a couple of HomeSeer HS-WS200+ switches, and they don’t seem to be recognized any more. When I add the switch it shows up as unknown device.

I see this error message in the logs:
2020-07-18 16:29:33.921 [WARN ] [wave.discovery.ZWaveDiscoveryService] - NODE 71: Device discovery could not resolve to a thingType! 000C:4447:3035::5.9

I just updated to 2.5.7-SNAPSHOT, and it did not resolve the problem.

I think I see what broke the database entry on July 2. An older snapshot should work as a workaround while I contact the person who made the change.

What firmware version are your devices? 5.9?

I sent a PM to the person who made the change but I suspect he may be asleep right now.

Great thanks. I also had the issue with 2.5.6, before I updated.

I have a few of the switches. I think 2 of them are 5.9, and I have anther one that’s 5.7. I have not removed the latter one, but it looks odd in the UI (no description or name). I assume it will have issues too if I removed it.

I suspect the 5.7 one will work OK. One of our experienced users made the change so there must be a reason.

there must be a reason.

Sorry, I don’t know the reason and did not make that change:

made the change

Here seems to be the reason:

HS-WS200+ Firmware upgrade (5.12) added attribute 6 to disable scene control

I’ve updated the firmware on my Netseer HS-WS200+ to latest. The new firmware adds a new parameter (6) to disable scene control – to do away with a delay on single tap. Per Chris , a a new entry needs to be created in the device database with the new parameter. Those of you with more experience, please help out with the process. I’ve already gotten access from Chris. OpenHab won’t generate XML that contains the new parameter. What do I use as the base to create a new device entry: the XML that…

There is now no entry for versions below 5.7 now.

I have several HS-WS200+ switches in the 5.7 version. I have lost all of the configuration parameters in the paper UI and the switches are not recognized. Is there a way to get this back for the older switches?

[Bruce_Osborne]

Please post the xml file from one of them. 5.5 & up should work but I do not know why the lower bound.

The database can be updated but there is no good way to the older config other than fixing ny issues.

[brethomp (Bret Thompson)]

network_d4207e5b__node_54.xml (12.5 KB) Is this the XML file that you are looking for?

[Bruce_Osborne]

That is the file and I verified the 5.7 firmware version.

What version of openHAB are you running? If you are running 3.x you need a snapshot version of the binding.

[brethomp (Bret Thompson)]

Sorry for the late reply. OpenHAB 2.5.12-1

[Bruce_Osborne]

I believe 2.5.12 should have that definition.To be sure, you could update to the latest 2.5.13 SNAPSHOt.
