Neo coolcam z-wave devices

Update: I just reset the sensor and re-paired it, works fine now!

@alefz3r0:
I’ve got the same issue with 3 of those door sensors, 12 are running without issues.
What have you done (instead of resetting it)?
What do you mean with “re-paired it” it?
Have you done some hardware fixtures?
(I replaced a reed contact (glass tube) but the issue still occurs)

Thank’s a lot in advance

@helmar74 I have pressed the button of the sensor long enough (10 seconds ?) to reset it, and then performed the pairing by

putting the controller (OH) in scan mode through the Paper UI
putting the device in pairing mode by quickly pressing three times the button

Hope it helps

@helmar74 I need to correct myself…the device was seeming to work after the procedure I have described, but in a short time the same problem occurred.

I have noticed that, after the device is included into the network, if I press the button three times (on the device only), it will work correctly for a few seconds, and then it will show the problem again.

Also, I have tried to change the Association Group for group 1, setting that to another slave node of my network. Doing this, the device works fine, meaning that I can see the led on the device blinking everytime I open/close the door. Of course, no data is received to the controller and this configuration is not useful. If I put back the Association Group for group 1 to Openhab Controller, it will show the problem again.

@chris @martinvw do you have any idea about why this can happen?

Thanks in advance

@chris could it be that in the database there is no link to the BASIC class?

Database Link

Endpoint 0 has no command class linked to the basic class.

The manual of the sensor states:

The Door Sensor supports two linkage groups:
Linkage group 1 is assigned to the device status - sending the BASIC SET control
frame to the associated devices having detected motion

I don’t think it should matter. Group 1 should be used (the normal lifeline reporting group) and this doesn’t use basic class - it uses the notification class.

I would suggest to try the development version of the binding which handles notifications better. I’m not sure if this will help here as the problem seems a bit strange. I’d also suggest to check logfiles using the log viewer to see exactly what is being received from the device.

Hi,

figured out the problem. On defect sensor the capacitor C3 (Bottom Side of circuit board) is missing.
On the functional sensor the capacitor C3 is in place. If the sensor doesn’t send status and I put my finger on the contacts where the capacitor should be it sends the status correctly…
So it’s an hardware failure. I have 3 of those sensor and every one has the same issue and on every sensor C3 is missing on the working the sensors C3 is soldered proberbly!

The pictures (quality isn’t best because I’ve had to use a big zoom factor) shows the missing C3 capacitor:

alefz3r0 · March 20, 2018, 12:17pm

Wow @helmar74 great job! By any chance have you also figured out the approx. value of such missing capacitor?

alefz3r0 · March 20, 2018, 6:23pm

@helmar74 look at how C3 has been soldered in my device…

helmar74 · March 20, 2018, 6:51pm

Hi, I’m currently investigating… Will order 100nF and try.
Will take a few days until I get the capacitors… only have 1µF but its to big for soldering
Will give you Feedback…
Stay tuned

helmar74 · March 20, 2018, 6:53pm

In your pictures soldering also looks strange…

alefz3r0 · March 20, 2018, 7:06pm

Confirmed: the capacitor was not making contact. Tried to rework it but it has fallen on the floor and was not able to find it anymore. I have then used a 15000pF capacitor (roughy matching the size), and the device works fine! Many thanks for this…

helmar74 · March 20, 2018, 7:08pm

Thanks for the feedback… will order that one…

helmar74 · March 20, 2018, 7:20pm

fyi: The Size should be 0603:

helmar74 · March 22, 2018, 8:31pm

@alefz3r0
Today my capacitors arrived, I was able to repair two of my sensors with a 22nF capacitor.
They’re working well now

Thanks a lot

Helmar

Good to hear that! Thank you as well!

Hi

i have bought those two items

NEO-Coolcam-NAS-DS01Z-Smart-Home-Z-Wave-Plus-Door-Window-Sensor-Compatible-with-Z-wave

NEO Coolcam NAS-PD01Z Smart Home Z-Wave Plus PIR Motion Sensor

My things

i have defined my items :

your code goes here

not all the channels are updated

even when i am pressing once on the physical button on the door and motion sensor, i can see in the log that

2018-04-01 17:02:40.113 [me.event.ThingUpdatedEvent] - Thing 'zwave:device:162723a63f8:node4' has been updated

what am i missing???

chris · April 16, 2018, 10:31am

It doesn’t appear to be in the database, so I guess it’s not been used in OH at least.

sihui · April 17, 2018, 9:03am

Yes.

No

sihui · April 23, 2018, 12:36pm

Yes, you still have to use the development/security version of the zwave binding:
