HI,
in the past I had a threat regarding my remote control from Popp, the KFOB-C. Sorry, but I have to come back to this issue.
The last answer I got was:
I saw in this forum how to create a scene with the KFOB-C. Therefore it should be possible to include it.
Now I am exact at the point like at the beginning of this thread. The Popp KFOB-C is included, but in the
administartion interface the configuration chapter has no content. I can’ configure it.
Has someone this remote control in use and can give me a hint how to include and operate it in openhab? I have updated my z-wave binding, this can’t be the reason.
Does the device show correctly as a KFOB in HABmin, or does it show that it is unknown? If it’s unknown, then you will have no config parameters and associations and the device needs to complete initialisation by being woken up a few times near the controller.
If it doesn’t complete initialisation after this, then get a log file and have a look at what is happening.
sorry, but I don’t know what I shall looking for. I woke the device up several times but without any positive result.
The device is not shown as KFOB but as ‘ZWave.me [ID:103,Type:100]’. Within the request.log I found the Node 37. And this logfile with the node 37 line will be longer and longer, always with the same note. Probably this node tries something.
I woke the device up several times, but no success. Then I tried "heal node " and “reinitialize node” with the result that in the administaration interface in the column “value” also the entry “ZWave.me [ID:103,Type:100]” is escaped. Now there is nothing in this column.
Here a part of the zwave.log before I tried to wake up the device and heal it:

There’s nothing wrong with the log file at all. Everything you have presented is normal.
You will need to wake up the device - probably a few times. To do this you will need to press a button on the device - please read the manual on how to do this. When you do this, the device must be reasonably close to the controllers so that the controller can configure the device.
OK, I woke up the device like described in the manual. By the way, I did the same some month ago with the zwave.me software and there I could include this device.
I really don’t know what I can do now, I woke up the device, reinitialized it, healed it, all without any success.
Please, I include here my logfile from all these unsuccessful tries. Can someone find the reason why I can’t include the remote? The device has the node 37.
ok, but it’s a long one. Therefore I attched the pdf. Unfortunately I can’t attach a textfile here and have convertet it into xml. You cab change the .xml against the .log
Can you please remind me of what’s not working and also confirm it’s node 37 I need to look at?
Assuming it is node 37, then from the log it looks ok from a first look anyway. I can see the initialisation of the node, and that’s all looking ok. The device isn’t in the database, but otherwise it initialises and I guess it’s written a node37.xml file?
Can you attach the node37.xml file if there is one please?
That simply means that it’s not in the database. So I think it’s working fine and you should be able to use it even though the database isn’t included.
Unfortunately only half the file is provided. If you can provide the full file I’ll add this into the database, but someone will need to add any configuration entries - it would be great if you could do this? .
Maybe only a misunderstanding, but what do you mean with “only the half” That’s the whole xml file.Or do you mean the missing entries?
I can include something but you should explain how to do it respectively what I shall include. Sorry, I’ve never done this before.
No - it only seems to be half the file - well, I say half - I mean it’s not complete. It’s is not a correctly finished XML file as the different elements are not closed (eg there is no </node> on the end of the file). If this is the full file, exactly as you see if on the drive, then something is very wrong somewhere, but I’ve never seen the binding write a corrupt file like this. My guess is a cut and paste problem?
I’ve added this to the database here. We will need to find the PDF for the manual and upload that, and then add the configuration parameters and association groups. This will need to be typed in by hand…
As I said above though, if you’re using this in OH1, you should be abel to use the device now even without configuration etc (unless of course you need to change the default configuration).
