  1. I usually rename my nodes to something shorter and tuck away all the unused ones in a folder named ZWave extra nodes. Before I rename, I make a copy of original name and then place in notes so I can always look at what it was originally. Can't help but notice this is Zen32 you are showing, and how you are making separate programs for each on/off state keeping track of variable it seems. I can't see all what your programs do so not sure... but I do something similar and use two programs per button, but also keeps ZEN32 Button LED in sync even if load is turned on/off remotely.. see here, not the basic association method but program method.
  2. Sounds like you used basic association in ZMatter for these, which allows switches to control others without a controller. If you exclude/include it should reset them. But I am wondering how you got them back on the Zooz stick without doing that already? Maybe need to do a full reset of the switches... Zooz should provide instructions how to do. Or you can try loading up the silicon labs software with a zooz stick and remove the basic associations that way from the switches. I discussed this before, so go search in the older ZWave forum.
  3. Thanks for this, until now I did not have a use for IFTT. I also have Slack at work so was able to get this running here. I notice that there are a couple settings you must have adjusted: Content-Type: application/json and checking the Use SNI was key in making this work. I sucessfully have it working, just not using it for anything practical yet.
  4. I don't think that is the case having to handle each device separately, OTA is part of the Z-Wave standard. Maybe issue with S2 and OTA. The only OTA I have done is with the simplicity studio software and Zooz 700 stick on Windows PC... and it seems (for me anyways) that I cannot include the device into simplicity studio using S2 and must uncheck and use S0 only, or the firmware upgrade will not work. I just updated a few things recently - some Leviton switches and Zen17. Would be nice to have OTA so the nodes don't change excluding/including a new device to perform OTA currently, then having to adjust all programs and scenes. The Zen17 I just updated seemed to resolve issues with ZMatter, and the other Zen17 I have is way up high in garage ceiling so I will have to go up ladder and remove, do update, then install again... Not a huge deal but OTA will be nicer.
  5. I just tried mine and all I have in my finder here at work is http which I added manually and works. Try removing it and re-adding https manually and see what happens.
  6. Ya when I first used Z-Wave years ago I was surprised by all the nodes vs Insteon. I think other hubs consolidate them all into one device. I am curious how HA does this natively. Are you using HA ISY integration to bring in all your devices however? If that is the case, must be a nightmare to keep track of everything whenever re-including a device and node ID number changes What I do on IoX is I have a folder named Z-Wave extra nodes, and sub-folders within for all rooms/devices. I throw all the extra nodes in there and just rename/move all the nodes I want to appropriate folders. I tried HA ISY integration but is too much too much entities brought over and I don't feel like renaming them all in IoX to try to ignore (the add-on in HA could have more selective importing abilities.. .maybe it does now it has been a while?) There are pros and cons to having all these nodes, I guess we can organize how we want. I often watch HA tutorials for things that popup on Youtube and seems a bit overwhelming in the steps to do a particular task where in IoX it would be a simpler program.
  7. There is no migration to zooz stick. You need a zmatter board to attempt migration from an isy994i. As far as the zooz stick not working now I think it will only continue to work if you upgrade from a polisy with zooz already, but contact ud and they may have a way to enable it again, but if so you would have to reset it and include all devices again because zwave network key is probably gone upon restoring the 994i image. I would get a zmatter board though since zooz stick isn’t really supported moving forward.
  8. Currently I have to exclude then use software on Windows and my USB Stick to perform firmware upgrade. Wondering when OTA will be supported in ZMatter. Last I heard was firmware issue but is this now resolved?
  9. I found this recently, but have make sure you select the node with has the "Set Configuration" button or probably will not work. I wonder why they also do not put a parameter query on that main screen. Using this method, I actually found a bug in one of my device's manual where it was not showing the correctly parameter size, and therefore did not seem to work for me... was not until I query it showed the Parameter Size as 2 instead of more common size of 1, which allowed me to set the parameter correctly.
  10. @andrewhermanSee my other thread, inspired by this one, regarding GE in-Wall Smart Motion switch.and May I ask what you are using to detect motion? After my troubles I think I am going to eventually toss these GE switches.
  11. I just fought with this on weekend after changing some things around and discovering my GE/Enbrighten/Jasco wall switches with motion sensor get its motion sensor triggered by another Z-Wave switch in the same 2-gang box (which controls a ceiling fan). I originally had a Jasco ZWave switch, and then replaced with a Zooz Zen71 and both do the same thing. I suspect some RF interference from the Z-Wave switch being too close to the motion sensor. I have two exact configurations in two separate bathrooms and both have the exact same issue so I would rule out that my GE Motion switch is defective and rather claim that it is a defect in them. Here is pic of the switches to make clearer. GE In-Wall Smart Motion Switch SKU: 26931/ZW4006 I have confirmed that it is the Motion sensor being affected and not some other type of inerference by watching the Motion Sensor Node in AC while turning on/off the other switch and see it come on about 40-50% of the time. Further troubleshooting steps by disabling the Motion sensor via Parameter 6 set to 0 confirms this and prevents the light from turning on with the fan switch, but defeats the point of having a motion light. I have a program that turns light on when entering bathroom based on motion, fan on after 15 sec, then everything off after 30 min of last motion detected. Also a scheduled program turning the fan on once an hour for 10 minutes, but it triggers the motion sensor about 50% of the time, causing the light to come on, then triggering my program. I wonder if anyone else has an issue with these GE Motion Lights? Solution was a mix of programs that temporarily disable other programs, state variable, disable motion sensor via parameters and seems to work now, but I have been there before where I think it is working on ISY and find a quirk I post my programs here, maybe there is better way to do this is result of several attempts over weekend to come up with something that works - it is a bit challenging to have the light come on/off with a fan schedule which inadvertently causes programs to run because of this Motion sensor interference. =================================================================================== Downstairs Bathroom - [ID 00DA][Parent 0001] Folder Conditions for 'Downstairs Bathroom' If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then Allow the programs in this folder to run. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Downstairs Bathroom Fan On Schedule - [ID 00DB][Parent 00DA] If ( Time is 12:00:00AM Or Time is 4:00:00AM Or Time is 8:00:00AM Or Time is 12:00:00PM Or Time is 4:00:00PM Or Time is 8:00:00PM Or Time is Last Run Time for 'Downstairs Bathroom Fan On Schedule' + 1 hour ) And $Downstairs_Bathroom_Occupancy is not 1 Then Disable Program 'Downstairs Bathroom On' Set 'Downstairs Bathroom / Downstairs Bathroom Fan' On Wait 4 seconds Enable Program 'Downstairs Bathroom On' Wait 10 minutes Disable Program 'Downstairs Bathroom On' Set 'Downstairs Bathroom / Downstairs Bathroom Fan' Off Wait 4 seconds Enable Program 'Downstairs Bathroom On' Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Runs fan every hour for 5 minutes Does not run if Bathroom is Occupied (set by state var in Main Bathroom On) Resets to on the hour time every 4 hours in case of restart or drift.

  12. Good to hear. Did you include with S2 and key or with just S0? Regarding parameters, I had set one for Garage with Zooz dongle before with P2=7 for a door open/close sensor and the node came up named different when I included as a door with open/close instead of on/off. My garage door Zen17 is way up high and not easy to do right now.
  13. I don't have a .3 node... go back and look at my screenshots above.
  14. I am scared to exclude it now LOL thinking it may not come back.... gonna try though now and see... EDIT... exclude/include worked. Just have to set param10/11 to 0 to isolate inputs from relays which is normal by design. So in my case definitely needs S2 which is strange, I normally unselect all because it is easier!
  15. Ok that is further than I got, I did not get the extra nodes. P2, P3 = 11 is for momentary garage door to isolate the inputs from outputs P2, P3 = 10 is dry contact sensor. Anything for P2, P3 4 and above should bring extra nodes re: instructions. P10 and P11 do not persist through an exclude/include only P2, P3 do. I have excluded/included about half dozen times... even updated firmware to 1.20, factory reset and no luck so far seeing any of these extra nodes. When I do an update with interview on it, I get some javascript error and ISY reboots. Here is nodes I had... I only have .1 and .2 binary switch. There should be two sensors. Please show me screenshot of yours. Now success... I had to include as S2 with PIN and then all these appear now... @Chris JahnCan you clarify if S2 is required for this or did I just get lucky one time including? Setting parameter 10,11 to 0 isolates and I tested by turning switch 1 and switch 2 on manually using AC and does not affect binary sensors... and shorting the sensor inputs with a wire turn on/off the binary sensors, without affecting the switches/relays state. Works perfect now.
  16. Does this mean your zen34 are working now in 5.5.5? I was thinking of buying one but nobody has been successful yet.
  17. I noticed that in 5.5.5 this now works for Jasco motion wall switches. Now I redid programs using that motion sensor instead of relying on the light itself switched on internally.
  18. That is disappointing, that was one of the release notes to now support ZEN34. ZEN17 is in a similar situation, however at least is is functional except for extra node settings/configurations do not seem supported.
  19. Oh I re-read your post again and I think I misunderstood what you want to do. I was thinking of toggling a switch on/off using one ON command. I left here anyways for reference. If I understand correctly... you have a scene with two or more Insteon switches. However when you control the actual switch using Alexa (or even in Admin Console etc) the way Insteon works is it does not update the other switches in the scene. This has been discussed before over the years, but what you want to do is just turn on/off the other switches in the scene based on the actual load device state (ie. the switch that controls the light)... Here is a program that keeps a remote switchlinc that is in a virtual 3-way scene in sync when I turn on/off the actual switchlinc that is the load using AC or something like Alexa. Front Hallway - [ID 0036][Parent 0033] If 'Entrance / Front Hallway' Status is On Then Set 'Entrance / Front Hallway Slave' On Else Set 'Entrance / Front Hallway Slave' Off In the case of keypadlincs, there is no way to turn them on/off directly and the workaround is they must instead be put in a scene as a responder to be able to be turned on/off. Here is another program with upstairs hallway but also has a keypadlinc button. Upstairs Hallway - [ID 004C][Parent 0033] If 'Upstairs / Upstairs Hallway' Status is On Then Set 'Upstairs / Upstairs Hallway Slave' On Set 'KPL Sync LED scenes / EC Upstairs Hallway KLD' On Else Set 'Upstairs / Upstairs Hallway Slave' Off Set 'KPL Sync LED scenes / EC Upstairs Hallway KLD' Off And the scene that controls the Keypad Linc looks like... Among tons of other scenes controlling all keypads LEDs. You can also sync dimmers using a variable too eg. Chandelier - [ID 004D][Parent 0033] If 'Entrance / Chandelier' Status >= 1% Then $Dim_Level_Temp = 'Entrance / Chandelier' Status Set 'Entrance / Chandelier Slave' On '$Dim_Level_Temp %' Else Set 'Entrance / Chandelier Slave' Off This program sets the SwitchLinc dimmer to proper dim level. Requires a temp variable to hold the status and set it. Note that if you press the actual switches, the scenes set the state of all the buttons, but these are for when you turn on/off a light using Alexa. I hope this this what you are asking.
  20. Edit... I don't think this is what you want, but I left here just in case... see my next post for solution to what I think you are asking. You need to use two programs. Here is example where a button on Zen32 toggles a light on/off. Note my documentation.. The program that does the actual toggle needs to be disabled so it does not trigger itself. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Button1 SW - [ID 00C0][Parent 00D8] If 'Test / ZY Zen32 Scene Button 1' is switched On Then Run Program 'Button1 Toggle Light' (If) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Toggle Light on/off in program "Button1 Toggle Light" when Zen32 Button 1 is pressed. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Button1 Toggle Light - [ID 00C1][Parent 00D8][Not Enabled] If 'Computer Room / Computer Room Closet' Status is Off Then Set 'Computer Room / Computer Room Closet' On Else Set 'Computer Room / Computer Room Closet' Off Performs the actual toggle called by Button1 SW. This program needs to be disabled otherwise it will trigger itself and run endlessly in race condition.

    I opened a support case with Zooz and this is what I said... Maybe if more of us here request something similar they may consider this. Thank you.
  22. Did that window pop up or are you just looking at the menu option and wondering what it does? In my case, one older ZWave device requires this that does not display a Node status On/Off normally. It is an Everspring ST812 Flood Detector. It had a node named ZY 025 Assoc Only. What I did was in the Z-Wave Menu, detect button presses Off so doesn't pop up in AC always. On the device itself I right click the node and select as follows (I renamed the node from original name) Note that those options only show up for devices that use this method for button, will not appear in regular devices/nodes. I can then use a program using Control to check that button press, or in my case it is a leak sensor. Furnace Room Leak Detect - [ID 0056][Parent 0057] If 'Furnace Room / Leak Sensor / Furnace Room Leak Sensor' is switched Then Set 'Furnace Room / Watercop' On Set 'Notification Controller / Service Pushover Brian' Send Sys Short With Params To all Priority=Emergency Format=None Sound=Pushover (default) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Leak detect turns on Watercop (shuts off water) and emails.
  23. Zooz Zen34 maybe. I would check that it is working when users report back, support was just added to latest v5.5.5 firmware. @asbrilhas one and is going to test and follow-up soon.
  24. I tried this and I do not get any extra nodes. I am setting parameter 2 and 3 to 10 which is a dry contact sensor. I powered off/on. I even excluded/included. Then excluded/included using S2 and still no nodes. An update with interview afterwards does not help. I confirm query parameters 2 and 3 are still set to 10. Something still is not right.
  25. You may have to restart PG3.. Mine shows this..
