Aeotec Smartstrip DSC11-ZWUS

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to control an Aeotec Smartstrip DSC11-ZWUS with 4 independent outlets. Enrolling was straightforward, but my ISY-994i with Z-wave module and firmware v4.4.2, UI v4.2.30 treats the entire strip as one outlet. It lets me turn on/off all outlets and reports the power used by all outlets.

 

How can I enroll the device such that the ISY lets me control each of the 4 outlets individually and reports the power/energy for each of the 4 outlets?

 

Many thanks,

Bernhard

It should also be noted your firmware & UI should match in your case they don't. Ensure you clear the java cache and select all check box's.

 

Next, down load and use the correct Admin Console that was used for the firmware load such as 4.4.2. Otherwise you will notice odd behavior or things just don't work as you expect.

 

As Mwester indicated Z-Wave multi channel support is being tested now and should be released very soon.

I really wish Smartlabs would come out with a multi strip outlet like Z-Wave. Not sure why something so very simple hasn't been released on the market place.

 

It would seem to be a easy money maker for them and would sell like hot cakes.

Probably because now they can charge us $50 for an on/off module with just one outlet. But no one would pay $300 for a 6 outlet power strip.

The math says otherwise, I expect. Most likely, they simply looked at the percentage of customer returns for the dual-outlet, figured that a 6-outlet strip would have three times the parts of the dual-outlet and thus three times the field failures, and they probably came up with a number that said they'd lose money on each item!
