All,
I installed openhabe 5 from scratch and got the proposal to install zwave but I was keen to get zwave js which I installed. The recommendation still stays to install zwave. I guess both bindings should not be installed ? Might be a proposal from me to propose both zwave bindings and after one is selected the recommendation should disapear ?
Or I am wrong and have to install both bindings ? Is the zwave device database installed when only zwave js binding is selected ?
The recommendations just mean that OH detected that you have access to that technology or API through a scan of your computer and network. It doesn’t mean you have to use it.
It won’t hurt, but only zwave-js or the zwave binding will be able to access the Zwave controller at a time meaning you can only use one of them at a time unless you have two different controllers.
I don’t know how zwave-js works over all, but I am pretty certain it doesn’t use the device database. But you’ll have to look at the zwave-js docs for details. zwave-js is a wholly third party service and not a part of OH itself. All the binding does is use the API provided by zwave-js to communicate.
True. zwave-js has a separate DB that may or may not include your device. However, as zwave-js is used by HA (and that is a bigger population) odds are in your favor.
Thx got it, might be my question was wrong according to the database I use a shelly wave shutter device model id QNSH-001P10 with zwave js and all works fine but the device is in as a thing and a item. But I can not manage it as a wave shutter with a button up and down.
