Check if Zwave door lock slot has a code in it.

[James Peterson]

It looks like according to Wink they are about to tell if a door lock slot has a code in it.

Can anyone help me with discovering this request in the api.  I don't need the code, I just want to be able to check it a slot has a code so I don't overwrite it.

I would love to see this capability.  I hate having to write down what lots I have put what codes into.

If this is not possible with the ISY, they need to add it, like now.  Can't let features like this slip through the cracks.

The Leviton vrc0p+3 lets you get a user code report with actual user codes along with the status (vacant/occupied) through their own simplified serial API which is built is on top of the zensys serial API:

 

User Code:

Get User Code:

>NxSS99,2,UserID

X = lock node ID

User ID = 1 to max. supported

 

User Code report:

<nx,99,3,UserID,status,code1,code2….,codey

Status = 0 (available), 1 (occupied), 2 (reserved), 3(not available)

Code = 4 to 10 digit ascii number

OpenZwave implements COMMAND_CLASS_USER_CODE, so it can probably be done from there too.

 

Since Universal Devices must have access to the zensys serial API, I guess they could implement it as well.

I never write down codes. I almost never write anything down

 

I do keep track of who is in each slot using a spreadsheet, but even 'notepad' will do.

I use the note feature in the device itself to write what code goes to reach user. This helps me keep track

While all of these options are acceptable for average use. I am working on app usage setting and clearing codes. I could care less what the code is. I just want the app to be able to tell if a code exists in a program slot so it doesn't overwrite codes that already exist.

Use the suggested method(s) indicating a name instead of a code. You may not be able to get the lock to do something it's not capable of.

Please see first post.  Wink claims to be able to do exactly what I am asking.  I called and talked to their customer service to verify and they can query the lock to determine if a code exists in a slot from the Schlage locks.  So far this is not possible via the ISY as far as I know so I want to ensure that this gets in for new updates.

Some Schlage locks do have some ISY access to user codes, others do not. Which lock do you have in mind?

Any or all.  

 

Point me towards the API calls for retrieving this information. 

[stusviews]

I emphasized some access, for example, which user operated a BE469. Does Wink have access to, in particular, the Schlage FE599 user codes? Or BE369?

[James Peterson]

For me it doesn't matter.  I am just adding the ability to my app and I want to include all possibilities for capable locks.  So if there is a way to query codes on any locks, I'd like to know which ones and what the API request are for them.  So does anyone have this?
