ZMNHHD Mini Dimmer Node is not communicating with controller

Gottfried_Hauer · March 27, 2024, 3:57pm

I added a ZMNHHD Mini Dimmer to my z-wave Stick.
All other zwave devices in the network are working without a problem.
I switched from FHEM to OpenHAB.
The dimmer is working in FHEM.
I´m able to switch the light on and off from FHEM
But if I connect the stick (aeontec 5Gen+) to OpenHAB the dimmer is found in the inbox.
But if I add it to my Things the following message is displayed:

Node is not communicating with controller

How could I find and fix the problem?

From the description you added the mini-dimmer to the Aeotec using something other than OH? Sometimes that can cause issues. One thing to try is after adding the node (and getting the message), restart either OH or just the ZW binding with the stick plugged in. If just restarting the binding, put ZW into debug mode on the UI settings page. Either post the log or use the Zwave debug log viewer to analyze. Another thing to try with Debug is to activate the device manually from the switch.

I have tried my old installation of FHEM with the same stick like on OH.
On FHEM the dimmer ist working.

That’s what I get from the Zwave Debug viewer.

I don´t know what I have done.
After restarting the OpenHAB server the dimmer works.
I have done it serveral times bevor.
