Zwave device has no channels - not scanned properly? Tips to solve?

[apella12 (Bob Eckhoff)]

Check out this Guidance for “unknown” Zwave Device - Tutorials & Examples / Solutions - openHAB Community My guess is the TYPE:ID is different

@coofercat

If I add it, the device itself carries on flashing its LED like it’s not been paired, and I don’t see an XML file for it in the zwave directory on the openhab box

Edit: A couple of other thoughts. 1) Try to exclude the device first.

@coofercat

I have 3 other devices shown in the inbox, but these devices no longer exist (removed from the stick, now switched off, and in fact disposed of).

2. Get Simplicity studio (it is free, but you have to register) and get rid of everything that is missing.

@coofercat

I have one other zwave device successfully working via my stick.

3. Or simplest at this point, Exclude the device you have and factory reset the stick (hold button for 20 seconds), and factory reset the Hvy duty switch then reinclude the old one plus the new device.
