  1. If/when they come out with the newest version, it would have a completely different model number than the old product line (it will also look different).
  2. We can't answer for something that doesn't exist. It comes down to Apple's implementation of matter and what (how) they will allow things to interact. All questions that none of us knows the answer to. UDI has stated they will not be supporting home kit directly
  3. https://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/40153-z-wave-speed-setting/?do=findComment&comment=359204
  4. The best thing to do is buy one and test with your bulbs.
  5. No. Most likely not
  6. In addition to what was said earlier, they were designed for LED lights. You can set the low end trim to minimize flickering and cutoff
  7. I name my devices what they are in addition to putting a label on the back of the product
  8. Does it matter? You can replace it in less than 5 minutes.
  9. If they're losing connection to the app then it's a product issue/network issue. I'd contact the mfg. Have you tried moving the problem devices to the area where you don't have an issue? If they all work fine there then it may be something environmental
  10. Factory reset both switches and then right click on both devices and choose restore. Make sure that both are properly configured as controllers along with other settings
  11. The forums aren't the place to contact UDI directly. You would need to submit a ticket. The eisy sales page spells out exactly what you need to accomplish what you're looking for along with the necessary links to order. You can also find your questions answered in the very first post of this channel.
  12. Try to remove/exclude from your Polisy. Once done, manually factory reset the lock and then re-add
  13. It would help if you provide pertinent system information such as firmware AND UI, whether you are using zmatter board or some other usb stick, and what generation board your yale lock has
  14. Not necessarily. Even if communication isn't broken, you're still better served having them than not having them. The strength in zwave comes from having a strong mesh network than just a few devices. Network density matters more than range. By having additional devices, you're creating more pathways for communication rather than having a singular path. It's sort of like trying to yell at someone down the street. If your voice is loud (greater range), they may hear you. However, does that guarantee they'll hear you every time? Now picture the same scenario with 5 or 6 people in different places between you and them (network density). The chances of your message getting through is significantly higher. In addition, it depends on the generation of your devices. Zmatter's range is greatest with an all 700 series install. Anything lower and your range can be impacted. There are no guarantees that will help you. If your current path is terrible, it may help but it all depends on how zwave chooses to route itself. For example, 2 of my bedrooms use an outlet from the 4th bedroom as their closest neighbor even though there are multiple devices much closer to the pathway. Some of my devices aren't even being used as repeaters. With zwave being self healing, even if you could control the outcome, whatever path you chose will probably be overridden. Your devices will look at what takes the least amount of hops to get the job done. Sometimes this may not be the most direct route (similar to Google maps routing) If you're having issues or simply curious that can help. As I've stated previously, the self healing properties of zwave makes it a moot point. Since you stated you're replacing your insteon devices with leave, long term this will matter even less. Network density (within reason) matters much more for an optimized network than anything else. By having a multitude of devices, you're giving your devices many more routes to take should something happen. It's akin to driving around. If you're in an area with 1 way in or out and something happens then you're stuck. However, it'll there are 5 or 6 different paths, you have a greater chance of bypassing traffic.
  15. This isn't a 1 size fits all situation. You could write a program that if any of the individual switches are turned off, then turn off your keypad button. Based on your setup and how you control your home, status may need to be used
  16. If you upgraded from 4.xx to the latest firmware, the instructions on the firmware page states that the password was reset to default
  17. That doesn't make any sense. You want to trigger your devices to turn off but you want the same button to turn on.... Why not just use the regular toggle mode and you'd have it turn on and off. If you don't want the light to stay on, just add a line to your program that turn it off after a second or 2

    I think interference issues are overblown. I've done enough installs with C4 and hue bulbs without having issues. Granted, every home is different so it can potentially happen. If there were to be wide ranging issues, I can see it being more from lower quality devices than better quality ones. In addition, depending on UDIs implementation, you may be able to set the channel that ZigBee uses outside the range your network uses

    I'm aware of how it runs. Because of past statements from Michel, I wouldn't be surprised if they released both together as it makes sense from a development standpoint
  20. lilyoyo1 replied to brians's topic in ZMatter
    With all of the bugs so far, I wouldn't hold my breath
  21. No it does not. Thats just it's behavior to let you know it's being triggered. If nothing happened, a person may not be certain if it triggered.
  22. If the switch is set to non toggle off then it's sending the off command so your program wouldn't work
  23. lilyoyo1 replied to brians's topic in ZMatter
    I think all would be enabled at the same time since Matter uses zigbee
