I should also add that I donāt know what version of the device we are talking about here. I donāt know therefore if the device definition in the database has changed. Maybe a new version has been added with a different definition (there are 3 versions of this device in the database I think). Or maybe a channel was removed - Iām just not sure at the moment, so I canāt say that it can be āadded backā - it may not have been there and it may just be new definitions for an updated version of the device.
I just checked github, and the only change that has been made to this device in the past couple of months was 5 days ago when an additional type/ID was added.
Even the original version of this device from September doesnāt have the switch channel included -:
I donāt know what else I can do here - Iāve spent a lot of time trying to help, and Iām sorry that you donāt accept my answers. Iāve tried to present the documentation and history that shows where the various features you claim the binding should implement are really meant to be implemented, and I appreciate that this is not accepted by you, but Iām now at a bit of a loss as to what else to do. Maybe there was a new version added to the database that your system has swapped to using, but unfortunately I donāt have the time to continue to chase this one at the moment.
@Kai Are you able to comment on why a Switch item doesnt work in 2.4.0 Core for a ZWave device? It has a switch_dimmer channel, of which a dimmer itemtype and a switch itemtype is bound too. When the dimmer receives a command, such as 50, the switch item does NOT change to ON.
This is occuring on a 2.4.0 Stable system. It does not occur on another 2.4.0 Stable system I have with the identical Zwave device.
The only difference between the two is the physical hardware and the Zwave binding
Then we cannot help you.
In my animated gif you can see how it works on a snapshot zwave binding with a Fibaro dimmer, my switch and dimmer items are bound to a switch_dimmer channel:
If it works on different platforms with both the stable 2.4 we cannot help you either because you are the only one who is able to find the differences between them.
Check your config, check your parameters (especially parameter 80)
Based on this, I presumed you had another system with ZW111 already configured and working as you expected. Those devices would necessarily have had their Things created under an older binding version.
Itās not really clear if you actually do have other, older ZW111 or if they are different versions from your new one, or if you have tried the āfailingā new one on your older āworkingā system.
