I am attempting to synchronize scene settings on multiple Leviton VRC4 4-zone controllers

These devices look like a handful

@jasonrobey

When I press the desired scene button on a panel that thinks the scene is already active, it simply turns the active LED off. Then when I press it again, the scene transitions.

Well that is somewhat positive. I read that as on-off-on. From the log is seems to be sending a value with “On” but maybe no message with off. I wonder what sending OFF would do in the rule? would it allow the scene to be sent again on the first press. (is that what you are trying to do?)

I have not yet worked out how to watch the ZWave traffic directly.

The best is to ignore the events log and just use the zwave debug. There is a viewer here that makes it easier to read.

I don’t actually see how commands are configured through the XML configs

I don’t quite understand this. The channels are updated after a message is received from the device. The XML is really to get the zwave messages displayed properly in OH.

edit: I would also add you can use zwave-js-ui with OH if that appeals. Unlike OH, scenes are not persisted, but I do not know if that will help or hurt your situation.
