I am using openhab 1.8.3 since a year and it works really great for me.
Last week I bought a Fibaro KEYFOB (FIBEFGKF-601) and tried to activate it via habmin.
The registration won’t work for me (I tried it with org.openhab.binding.zwave-1.11.0-SNAPSHOT.jar)
After searching the web I didin’t find a way to use the KEYFOB in openhab 1.8.3 version.
The only thing I found was that it will work in openhab 2.0.
Is there really no way to use it in openhab 1.8.3 ?
The database is not required to use devices in OH1, so you can use it without any change. The only time the database is needed is if you need to change the devices configuration parameters.
It can be added to OH1 if you can create an update - the database files themselves are available on the database website so just need exporting and incorporating into the 1.9 binding.
Thank you for your quick reply.
I downloaded the configuration XML for the device from z-wavealliance.org (see attachment).
Hope I understand your feedback right. Next step will be to incorporate the xml-file into the 1.9 binding .
But I don’t know how to incorporate the file ?
Will you incorporate it in the build so I can download it from the Jenkins Buildserver ?
Or can you explain it to me how to do it ?
Thank you very much for your support.
I will download the zwave bundle from https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/ tomorrow.
At the moment there is no new build.
On the next weekend I am going to include it in my configuration.
Today I downloaded the zwave addon from cloudbees and installed it on my openhab 1.8.2 instance.
Afterwards I tried to include the Fibaro Keyfob, but it doesn’t work for me.
You can see the inclussion process on the screenshots below.
At the beginning I got the error message “Error serializing from file: file does not exist”.
I checked the wirte permissions but they are OK.
From the log, you need to use central_scene. Unfortunately I can’t remember how this is configured in OH1 (I’ve not run it for 2 years) but maybe there’s some examples on github?
