Zooz Zen37 Not recognized

[Uberschmutzer (Neil Levine)]

Is anyone successfully using the zooz zen37 wall remote? I can bind it to the Zwave network but there are no switch functions available since the device is not recognized. Any suggestions?

Guidance for "unknown" Zwave Device

Zwave wave devices are generally identified by the TYPE:ID pair (also infrequently the firmware version). Some manufacturers change the TYPE:ID numbers as the device is changed (FW or other change) or simply to identify the year it is made. The TYPE:ID can be found for an unidentified device in the userdata/zwave folder (or var/lib/openhab/zwave with most OH installations) in an XML file (like network_d2818a75__node_3.xml). The other thing to notice is the last approval date at the bottom of th…

Thanks so much for your response.

I’m running 4.1.1 and the zooz device is in the ZW DB with a date of 1/11/24. Its type Type:ID in the database is 7000:F003. Here’s the Code from the openHAB Thing for this remote:

UID: zwave:device:18364cd37a:node10
label: Z-Wave Node 010 (027A:7000:F003:1.0)
thingTypeUID: zwave:device

Shouldn’t it just recognize it from the DB? or have I missed something?

Try one of the options under b). All OH4.1.x zwave bindings are from December 2023

[Uberschmutzer (Neil Levine)]

Since the item is in the DB, I’ve tried to update openHAB to the latest stable (4.1.2) multiple times by trying the various scripts but to no avail. They don’t seem to do anything. What is the exact sequence of operations needed to do the update? If the scripts don’t work, is there a manual procedure?

Once updated, I’ll see if that helps fix things, then I’ll try to update the the latest zwave binding from your link. One step at a time!

I very much appreciate your advice.

@apella12

All OH4.1.x zwave bindings are from December 2023

This was meant as a separate sentence. Sorry for any confusion. I’ll make a note in my instructions. Upgrading to 4.1.2 will not fix your problem. The three options are i) OH4.2 M2, ii) the latest ZW snapshot or iii) modify your ZW binding

[Uberschmutzer (Neil Levine)]

Trying to use the latest zwave binding:

Do I just substitute this .jar file for the org.openhab.binding.zwave-4.1.1.jar file already present?
Do I need to worry about the sha1 file?

I tried to find how to install this via the Add-on Store Bindings page but couldn’t find a way to access the snapshot.

If there’s a link that has the instructions, please let me know what it is. Are there instructions available for the other 2 options you mentioned?

In the solution post under ii) there is a link to bundle management in the documents. Basically in karaf use bundle:update.

Thanks for the hint. It’s working now.
