I have the latest update for OH 3.3.0 M5 but so far, all my dimmer and master switches still say “Unknown Device” in the “Thing Type”.
I’ve tried to delete and add again but since I have literally near 100 zwave devices, I’m very affraid of having to remove the binding and then this broking all the working ones that I have right now and having to add them one by one again and setting it all up, which would just be a huge pain (also because some are not very accessible).
So my question is, how can I make this work in a safe way so I won’t risk breaking the existing ones?
Uninstall zwave binding from OH.
Go to console (sudo openhab-cli console) your sudo psd, then habopen pswd
Feature:install openhab-transport-serial
Go to website linked above.
Get snapshot.jar
Put jar in addons folder.
Pray (just kidding ) but wait about a minute or so. With 100 nodes it could be a bit longer.
All should be good.
Bob
edit: there are other ways to do this as well, but this generally works for me. Worst case is to restart OH.
Hey Bob, my mistake when I first added the Master Blinds Switch.
I added it with the EndPoints of a Dimmer and that’s definitely not the case so I switched it to have the Blinds EndPoints as that’s actually what it does. A master switch to basically control multiple blind switches, which in their system, automatically is recognized and in their APP they then select which blinds switches a master controls, but here since this is controlled over OH, I will then have to create rules for these Masters.
So when you can, please accept the modification and let me know so I can grab the snapshot.
Actually @chris is the only one that accepts changes. It is important to “Request Review” on the overview tab after making changes. I did that for you this time Anyway a new snapshot should be there sometime this weekend…
I mean, when I first inserted this unit in the database, I thought it was ok but I tried to work with it when I cannot send nor receive commands when I click the unit, so I can only guess the configurations are not correct.
Ok, many things seem to be wrong here, including the name for the equipment, which should not be " SimonTech S.L.U 10000306-039 IO Master Simon 100" but instead " SimonTech S.L.U 1000X081-XXX IO Master Simon 100", because the piece I inserted there is the “backbone”, not the “rocker” which is the front piece that communicates with the zwave protocol.
So this item is actually completely wrong and I’m sorry for that, but this one has definitely to be changed accordingly.
Automatic entry of data is performed by uploading the node XML files that are automatically produced by openHAB directly to the database system. These files are generated by openHAB when it performs device discovery and contains all the information on supported command classes and their configuration.
Great. I would recommend to shorten the device description (" SimonTech S.L.U S100 iO Master Roller Blind Master Roller Blind IO is ready to operate with Z-Wave controllers and configured to be managed by Simon100 IO APP using the HUB plug IO for getting a") a little bit.
