What about https://www.cd-jackson.com/index.php/zwave/zwave-device-database/zwave-device-list/devicesummary/89 ?
Please don’t post screenshots. You should have an xml file corresponding to your node number in your /userdata/zwave folder.
Check for manufacturer, thing and device type id. It looks a bit odd that you have a manufacturer with 0000.
If you are a beginner don’t forget to read all the basic documents for zwave:

Yes - I suspect this means that device is not certified. I’ve seen a few devices with this manufacturer ID - we’ve added them to the database to allow people to use them, but if it conflicts with other devices, then it will ultimately mean that one or other device will probably not be able to be supported.

Personally, I would complain to the supplier and get certified firmware, or return the device.
