Testing a new Channel and Register at z-Wave Device DB

Add-ons Bindings

Hi,
I want to create a new channel for device FIBARO FGS-224 (seee OpenSmartHouse Z-Wave Device Database).
This channel is for COMMAND_CLASS_PROTECTION_V2.
Before requesting this in device database I want to test this channel only. Doing so I add the channel manually here: /var/lib/openhab/jsondb/org.openhab.core.thing.Thing.json

{
          "acceptedItemType": "Decimal",
          "kind": "STATE",
          "uid": {
            "segments": [
              "zwave",
              "device",
              "bf6d0d67c4",
              "node24",
              "protection_local2"
            ]
          },
          "channelTypeUID": {
            "segments": [
              "zwave",
              "protection_local"
            ]
          },
          "label": "Local Protection",
          "description": "Activates Local Protection",
          "configuration": {
            "properties": {}
          },
          "properties": {
            "binding:*:DecimalType": "COMMAND_CLASS_PROTECTION:2;type\u003dPROTECTION_LOCAL"
          },
          "defaultTags": []
		  },

But if I restart the device to apply the update the file is overwritten. What I have to do?

The other question is:
I want to create an account at https://opensmarthouse.org for later requesting the new channel. I can register there but I never got an email for confirmation. Same if I request a password reset.
What can I do here?

Cheers Peter

My guess is that your system is blocking the emails. It looks like you have registered two accounts and I received the signup notifications for both of them so the system is working fine.

Chris, I‘ve tried it out now with another email account. Now it works! Thank you.
