Z-Wave on/off module reports watts?

Are there any Z-Wave on/off modules which will report the load (wattage) and are supported by ISY994iz?  Need 3-prong grounded connection, and must handle a max 400W resistive load.

 

Anybody currently using the Everspring AN163?   Or another grounded appliance module that shows the watts?   Would prefer something currently supported on v4.5.4 instead of upgrading to v5.x.x and nodeserver.

I have an Aeon Labs DSC06106-ZWUS - Z-Wave Smart Energy switch on a lamp in my living room. You can read the immediate or accumulated wattage remotely, and turn it on/off with an ISY994i ZW, but I don't believe the wattage can be read by a program.

I have several plus a couple HEMs. The current usage (watts) can be read in a program. Total consumption (kwh) cannot.

My diesel plow needs a 400W block heater to start in the winter. I have an outdoor appliance module which turns on when the outside temperature is below freezing and the weather condition is snow.  This program works perfectly.

 

The block heater does not work perfectly.   Last week the heater element burnt out (went open circuit).  And sometimes I forget to plug it in.

 

The current usage (watts) can be read in a program.

So I could have an ISY program run when the switch is on and active load is higher than 450W or lower than 350W?

Harv,

 

Can you confirm/clarify that a program can be run on current wattage of the Aeon Labs DSC06106-ZWUS?

 

The newer Aeotec Smart Switch 6 (SS6) ZW096 works great with some caveats.
 
The latest SS6 firmware V1.03 reports watts, amps, volts and kWh. However, current ISY firmware 4.5.4 and 5.0.8 can't turn it on/off.
 
SS6 firmware V1.01 does allow control from both versions of ISY firmware until new compatible ISY firmware becomes available.
 
The V1.01 firmware can be loaded on the SS6 switch using an Aeotec ZW090 Z-Stick and a PC. This firmware and more about this is at http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/19853-cant-control-aeotec-smart-switch-6-with-isy/?do=findComment&comment=202306.
 
The SS6 is Z-Wave Plus and is on Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Aeotec-Aeon-Labs-ZW096-Switch/dp/B00VQISOCG/.
 
 
I've been using the SS6 for several months to control my basement dehumidifier from ISY and have recently been testing them to monitor my sump pump and ejector pump.

I got the Aeon Labs ZW096 Smart Switch in and it is not reporting any of the electrical stuff. The led changes color when the coffee maker runs but nothing in the ISY. I have ordered a z stick to mess around with the firmware to see if I can get it to work.

These two work if you are running v4.5.1 (and higher)

Aeon smart switch (ZW075-A02)

Aeon smart dimmer 6 (ZW099-A02)

 

The Aeon smart switch 6 (ZW096-A02) I own does not function in v4. I have seen a post somewhere that mentions loading a different firmware version to get it to work in v4 but have not attempted.

Aeon smart switch (ZW075-A02)

Just received a ZW075-A02, looks pretty good so far.   I had to plug it in right next to the ISY to add it, I did the double-tap inclusion and it is appearing as a secure device:

As shown above, it also measures line voltage and you can use CV in a program!   I already have a couple of other devices monitoring voltage, but if I didn't I would absolutely use this -- pretty common to see a severe voltage sag just before the power goes out completely.

 

 

Here's some conditions being used in a test program:

ZW13 - [ID 00AA][Parent 000F]

If
        Status  'ZW 013 On-Off Power Switch' > On
     Or Status  'ZW 013 Energy Meter' < 108 Volts (Current Voltage)
     Or Status  'ZW 013 Energy Meter' > 12 Amps (Current Current)
     Or Status  'ZW 013 Energy Meter' > 484 Watts (Current Power)
 
Then
   - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')
