Nexia DB100Z Doorbell Sensor

I have a Nexia DB100Z hooked up to my doorbell chime. The device is linked, and when it senses current, it sends an event. (Log below)

 

However, the only option I have for the two devices is if it's responding (or battery status is x% on the battery one.) There's no alarm option, and even though I have it set to send an email when it responds, nothing happens. (Test emails work, though)

 

Do I need to wait until this particular device is supported? All I want to do is alert on a doorbell press. (For now)

Hi Sampas,

 

Its possible one of the command classes in the device is not yet supported in ISY.  Can you please post the Z-Wave node details by doing the following:

 

- Open event viewer

- right+click on node  Z-Wave -> Show Information in Event Viewer -> Node Details

 

Thanks

Do you mean the below?

 

When I go here:  Z-Wave -> Show Information in Event Viewer -> Node Details, it thinks, but nothing comes up. If I go to 

Tools -> Diagnostics -> Event Viewer, I can get the below.

 

Thanks,

Larry

Thanks Larry,

 

It looks like we support the command classes that affect your alarm conditions, what version of the ISY firmware are you running?

 

If you are running one of the 5.0.X ISY Firmware versions, please do the folliowing from a browser and post the output:

 

     http:///rest/zwave/node/ZW006_1/def/get

 

The output should be similar to the following format (the following example output is from a thermostat)t:

Oooh!!  Is there a similar URL to fetch that same information for Node Server nodes?  (I've been experimenting but haven't found such a thing yet...)

Hi mwester,

 

The Z-Wave implementation uses dynamically created node definitions, but node servers are still limited to pre-defined node definitions stored in files.  We don't currently have an API for downloading individual node definitions for node servers, but you can access the files containing all of them using the current node server APIs.

Posted

So I was on 4.5.1 and tried upgrading to 5.0.2. Now my user/pass doesn't work, and neither does the default, so I'm locked out. (Tried both java applet after clearing the cache and telnet to the IP address.)

 

Also, factory reset didn't work, either. I'm still locked out.

OK, so 2nd factory reset worked -- I waited longer this time. Restored, now I'm running on 5.0.2. Waiting on the z-wave firmware update.

Posted

So I have Insteon devices, but no z-wave devices any more, nor can the z-wave dongle communicate with any z-wave devices. It doesn't seem to hear any new z-wave devices, either.

Hi Larry,

 

I wasn't going to suggest you move right away from the 4.5.x version to 5.0.x, I was just asking if you were running 5.0.x.

 

First thing to try is to restart the ISY by turning off the power for a few seconds (this is important).

 

If you do not see any of your Z-Wave nodes then from the top menu in the Admin Console try

 

     Z-Wave -> Tools -> Synchronize Nodes -> All

 

If your Z-Wave nodes still exist in the Z-Wave dongle then they will start to appear in the ISY device tree.  If after doing this you still have no nodes, you will likely have to reinstall your Z-Wave devices.  Hopefully you don't have to reinstall them, but if you do:

  1) Factory reset the Z-Wave dongle

  2) Exclude you existing devices

  3) Add your devices back again.

Posted

Thanks. I tried another upgrade and another restore. The z-wave is seeing devices again, although they may need to be removed and added. On the other hand, my PLM has disappeared, along with the programs, which I assume are in the PLM.

 

I'll try re-setting the PLM when I'm back on site tonight.

Posted

PLM and z-wave dongle recovered, all insteon devices were there. I had to add a few z-wave devices back, but it was relatively painless.

 

However, when I go to http://10.x.x.x/rest/zwave/node/ZW006_1/def/get it returns this:

<RestResponse succeeded="false">
<status>404</status>
</RestResponse>
 
As do all the other devices I've tried with that REST pattern.
 
Is there someting else I need to do to get the device to sync with the REST?

Hi Larry,

 

Ok, I think you must be running version 5.0.2.   In version 5.0.4 we moved Z-Wave to the new framework (i.e. allowing variables to used as command parameters in programs etc.), and that is where that new URL was first implemented.

Posted

So I'm on 5.0.4 now, and getting the z-wave devices removed and re-added. (Most of my relays are still insteon.)

 

However, when I run the admin java applet (5.0.4), it often says z-wave dongle not responding. I "fixed" it by doing an upgrade firmware (4.55), but now it's doing it again. I can still get a z-wave alert by triggering the one z-wave motion sensor I've re-added, and I can see that event in the logs. Re-removing and re-adding all the z-wave devices is getting tiring. Is there a way to get the isy to recognize the z-wave dongle without upgrade/reset? I've tried rebooting, and powering down for a couple of minutes.

 

In the meantime, here's the XML from the motion sensor. I'll add the doorbell if I can get z-wave dongle control back.

I upgraded the z-wave dongle firmware, and got the admin panel contro for z-wavel back. The doorbell sensor is back after a remove/re-add. However, for program options, the only options I have for status are battery level and online. I also did a z-wave normal backup to see if that helps the next time I need to re-firmware-update the dongle.

 

Also, if I leave off the /def/get, I get this:

<RestResponse succeeded="false">
<status>404</status>
</RestResponse>
 
With /def/get, I get the below:

Hi Larry,

 

I just went through our code again and I see a bug where some alarms will not appear in programs, but in your case it may still work.

 

1) Open & clear the event viewer in Admin Console

2) Ring the doorbell and look for an "DON" or "ALARM" event to appear in the event viewer

3) Copy the contents of the event viewer (to post on the forum)

4) Close the Admin Console and start it again

5) From your browser, do http:///rest/zwave/node/ZW006_1/def/get

6) Post the output from the event viewer and the /def/get on the forum

 

If the event was a "DON", in most cases you should now see the alarm available as a control condition and a status condition in programs.

Here's the ring event. I had to re-updated the zwave firmware in the admin panel. Then I restored from yesterday's backup. Do I need to remove it and add it again to get the node found?

When you update the zwave firmware, you'll have to remove and re-enroll all devices, unless you shifted primary to another controller first (and can therefore shift primary back afterwards).

Hi Larry,

 

You should almost never have to update the Z-Wave firmware, or even factory reset the Z-Wave dongle.

 

If you see "Z-Wave dongle not responding", just wait a 30 seconds or so and check the menu again.  When you restart the ISY is takes about a minute or so for the Z-Wave module to brought online in the ISY.

 

Unfortunately, when you upgrade the Z-Wave firmware you lose your Z-Wave network unless you shifted primary to another controller first, but I don't think you did that.  Therefore, you will have to exclude and include your Z-Wave devices again.

 

>> Thu 08/11/2016 20:16:47 : processUpdate: node not found nt=181 valType=304 uom=93 val=1, event ignored

 

This indicates that we got the event, but the code did not create a node/status value for it.  This is a bug, very sorry for the inconvenience, but you won't be able to detect doorbell rings in programs with your device until we fix it.

Posted

I understand I need to remove and re-enroll all devices. What I don't understand is how to re-enroll the zwave dongle itself. Each time I open the admin panel, it says "Z-wave dongle not responding."

 

Is there a way to poke the isy by logging in and doing something?

I recently picked one of these sensors and I did get it working with my ISY firmware 4.5.1.

 

When first enrolling, it will only appear as a "Notify Sensor" and only gives a battery level. After installing and ringing the bell, a new node called "Power Management" will appear. Then, I could create a program that used the "Power Applied" control condition as the if statement.

 

One other gotcha is the sensor won't register a Power Applied status unless the voltage is 14VAC or greater. This is noted on the install sheet, but it tripped me up until I read it. After installing, sometimes I would see an event, but most of the time I wouldn't. Only after giving my doorbell a good hard press would the sensor register. With a quick press, I could only measure 9 VAC with my multimeter. I guess I need to swap in a more powerful VAC transformer.

This is still a problem. Any chance a new version of ISY will be coming out soon?
