Its actually a window/door contact sensor.
Anything in association groups that i need to set ? I just put all 4 groups to the Z wave Controller?
That could give you lots of trouble: if you need to control other devices outside from openHAB, use Group 2-4. If you want to control everything through openHAB, use only Group 1 (set to the controller)
Same game: I have one of those. You can speed up sending the battery level if you use a shorter time for the wakeup configuration: default is 43200 seconds. But then battery life will be way shorter …
Please bear with my noobieness.
If I only have 1 contact sensor and its node 4. Is my Z Wave Stick Node 1?
Everytime I do a inclusion scan , it shows up node 2 and 3, but I ignore it as they look like my Z wave serial controller but could it be something else? Does it matter for this matter?
When you say use Group 2-4, what exactly do you mean?
Could you give an example of your properties and settings for one of your Coolcam contact sensors?
In a standard setup with one controller: yes.
This can happen if you tried to include the same sensor several times. Every new inclusion counts the node number up by one digit.
It is possible to control other zwave devices directly, without openHAB between them.
If you have a zwave siren and want to sound that siren even if openHAB is down or shut off, you put the siren into the appropriate association group of your door sensor. On the other side that can have unpredictable effects if you don’t know exactly what your are doing.
So if you want a clean setup of openHAB and your zwave network, just set the Lifeline group (sometimes that group is called differently) to your controller. Leave all other association groups empty.
Sure:
Contact Neo_DW_1_C <siren> (gRestore) { channel="zwave:device:uzb:node46:sensor_door" }
Number Neo_DW_1_Bat <battery> (gBattery) { channel="zwave:device:uzb:node46:battery-level" }
Thank you so much!
Are the last 2 sentences the items to be put in the items file??
Can you also share your association groups?
update:
I just got these errors after making the changes to the configuration parameters (from 255 to -1), and leaving association groups 2-4 blank

It’s the same, just set it to 255:
Yes. If you have Simple Mode turned off you need to link the channels of your things to items manually.
Don’t forget to put a label format either in your items definition or in your sitemap definition:
Should be [%s] for a contact itemtype.
It won’t help you because it is empty: with the 2.4 version the binding sets the association automatically.
Edit: I’ve edited the post above because there were some strange characters in the item definition (from copy and paste)
Thanks again.
Are you on OH 2.4 snapshot or M5?
I am still on OH 2.3 stable. Is that why I am having more trouble than u did setting the z wave stuff up?
On snapshot #1433 which is basically Milestone M6.
Not necessarily, it depends: Zwave had a major restructuring between 2.3 and 2.4.
But more important is the zwave database: 2.3 is almost 6 month old, so your version won’t have any new devices or any devices changed in the database.
For the battery level: just be patient for one day and don’t restart openHAB, that channel always has worked and so it will on your system.
I also have the 2 gang EU switch
Direction Device > report to OH is not working and only one of the switches works from OH to Switch
You solved it by using the inclusionn by the stick and not Habmin?
Yep 
This will not make any difference - all the binding does is to put the stick into inclusion mode - the same as using the button.
If the device is not reporting, it is not related to inclusion - this is related to association configuration which is performed by the binding during initialisation. Again, this is not related to how it was included in any way at all.
thats what I would have expected.
As I only connected Live and Neutral and NO actual load to the outputs (I only want to use the 2 buttons to actually get on off by a rule and control not directly to the switch connected stuff) is it possible that the device is then differently discovered ?
It’s possible, but I think extremely unlikely.
Hello,
having problems setting up the Association groups for Neo Coolcam Light switch EU2 (OpenHab 2.4):
When adding target devices either to Association Group 2 (left gauge) or Group 3 (right gauge) of the switch, it does not send commands to target devices for ON / OFF events.
Tried to link one switch buttons with another same unit, but with no success.
At the same time it does properly respond when being added to Association Groups of other brand devices (tried with Fibaro motion sensor).
Any ideas?
Hi all,
Since i upgraded my system to 2.4.0 i am having problems with my Neo Coolcam Door/Window (4) and PIR (1) sensors. I followed the procedure described by @Chris in this thread ZWave binding updates , so i deleted all Things and let the binding discover them again. Then i added my item definitions from the items file to the Thing items.
At first the Window/Door sensors where working OK in v 2.4.0, however the PIR sensor never worked not even in 2.3.0.
I found some examples in threads and use the the following items:

Beacause i was doubting the ZWave configuration, i did put the ZWave binding in DEBUG and created a separate ZWave.log file and restarted openhab. This log file is here: ZWave.log
I am not knowledge enough with this, but when i scan through the log-file i think it looks OK… But i might mis a lot.
When i look at PaperUI, at the Things i see this: Status: ONLINE Node initialising: REQUEST_NIF
I use two other Z-Wave devices, Fibaro Wall Plug and Danfoss LC-13, and they seem to work OK in v 2.4.0.
At the moment i do not know what i can do…
Hopefully someone can help me with tihis?
Kind regards, Bert
You made a very detailed post 
, but left out the configuration parameters and associations used.
Can you please post the database references for these devices - just so we know exactly what they are.
I would also recommend using the latest snapshot as there was quite a bit of work to update some of these devices in the past couple of days.
Hi Scott, Thanks for you quick response. But i’m afraid i amstill a noob on this subject.
can you tell me where i can find these items? I scanned the tread from Chris and other threads, but could find these…
@Chris, I think these are the devices: Shenzhen Neo Electronics Co., Ltd - Door/Window Sensor
and the Shenzhen Neo Electronics Co., Ltd - PIR Motion Sensor
I have seen threads where other people using these devices too… I put links to the .xml-files of both devices here: Link to node4.xml and node5.xml Maybe that gives you some indication?
Later today i will copy the latest binding to the system.
And thank you very much for responding and for the enormous amount of work you have put in the ZWave binding.
Regards, Bert
Ok, just to confirm, can you look in PaperUI in the properties for the device, and you should see something like dbReference - can you quote those numbers.
Looking at the door sensor, I will make a change to the database to change the channels type as the alarm type is wrong and won’t work properly I’ve not looked at the PIR yet, but will check once you confirm these references.
