Sensative Strips are included but not recognized

Hi, I got new ZWave Sensative Strips, Door Window and Comfort. I included them to the controller but they are both not regognized. From the log I can see that the Comfort Strip is reporting luminance and temperature. I think I found both strips in the database, but still after hours not recognized.
Anyone else having this problem? What to do? Already updated to the version 1607.

I had the same problem.

You need to wake up the device a couple of times, until they get properly recognized. How to wake up the strips you can find in the manual or here:

https://sensativesupport.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001130552-Manuals-for-Strips-Guard

DO NOT exclude/include from the controller
DO NOT reset the device incidentally

If you have not mounted them, do the wake up very close to the controller.

I got 3 of 5 devices to be recignized, the other two are still unknown, even after 30 - 40 wake up. Any idea or what to check in logs?
Here is one wake up:

No idea. I have now also one, that I cannot get recognized. It remains as unknown device but in HABmin I can see, that the controller/OH recognized the wakeup of the device.

I have the same problem with a FIBARO Smoke Sensor now.

Is there any news on this? I’m having the same issue. I got 3 door strips here, tried with two of them but it’s not sending its info. Could add them as a thing on the first try, but even after well over 25 wake-ups they didn’t even transmit the battery level.

Hi Michel,

it works - but you need time :frowning:
what we don‘t have when we like to try it.
For me it worked automatically after a few days. I went away a few days for holiday and when I came back they where included.
Not nice but it worked. Didn‘t try to add a new since then.

Regards
Thomas

Hi @thokl,

what is you experience with them? Are they good?
Would you advise to buy some as an outdoor sensor?

Thanks in advance!
HFM

Hi,

I have 3 of the comfort stripes using outdoor and until now they work well.

Regards
Thomas

Hey Guys, similar case here… I tried over days to activate the strips guard, without luck. dont know how often I ried, but at the end it was hours… I wrote to sensative to get some support, but just got one sloppy answer; the dont even seem to know what openhab is, and always replied with HASS instructions :confused:
before I throw this strip away and never buy one again: if anyone of you who got it working could share again what you did to get it working, pls share it…
one strange thing is, I have now min. 4 nodes “reserved”, as the stick pops up as new node after resetting it… how can I remove / free these nodes? maybe also this helps to get this strip working?

I had the same problem and now it is working. I’m using OpenHAB 2.5 with an Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5 as the Z-wave controller and “11-01-011 Strips-MaZw” as the door/window sensor.

The sensor has not been recognised (though it was included) for about 24 hours even though I have triggered the wake up about 100 times throughout the day. After the first 23 hours, I have set the “Polling Period” setting to 10 minutes and the “Wakeup Interval” to 600 seconds. One hour later, it has been fully recognised. In the end, I increased these two values again because of energy consumption.

I have had some trouble to get the strips connected, but it is working now.

Things I have done to make it work:

  • Include in controller, but was unknown device
  • Wake up the device around 5-10 times after inclusion with a Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5 Controller
  • See wakeup-instructions here How to manually wake up Strips Guard – Sensative AB (zendesk.com)
  • Reinitialize the device using PaperUI
  • Repeat a number of wakeups. PaperUI show the recognized device type
  • Set configuration via PaperUI: the Notificiation type in the configuration to Notification Report
  • Set configuration via PaperUI: set Lifeline to Controller
  • Above should be the default, but with the default settings it was not working.
  • Create an Item of type Contact that can be Open and Closed and bind it to the door_sensor channel.

I did include/exclude the strip a few times because it was not working. I have also executed a factory reset, set it to auto-add mode again and then did above procedure.
So in the best case, it is just a matter of doing enough wakeups for openhab to recognize the device. Worst case, you might also need to do a factory reset (also listed at above link).
