Installer Software?? for use on laptop with Z-Stck - Issue returning ISY to Primary

[Gen_Mayhem]

Hi everyone!

 

I have the ISY-994 Zwave and a Aeon Labs ZW090 Z Stick. I am using Zensys-tools to control the Z-stick.

 

I am having issues returning the ISY to primary. The "Shift" button in Zensys is grayed out sometimes, when the Z-stick is the primary. 

 

If I reset the ISY Zwave and then start over I can get it to work once. Then I can't go back .. getting tired of excluding all my devices and then re adding them every time I buy a new device.

 

What do I do when I shutdown the Z-stick, delete the device? Remove it after the ISY is primary?

 

Is Zensys the issue, is there something else I should be using? Free or otherwise at this point. 

 

This is the only issue I have had so far. 

 

3x Schlage locks

3x Trane 524 T-stats

4x GE dimmers 

3x Slave rockers

1x Doorbell

 

ISY Portal & Alexa

 

Thanks

Hi Gen_Mayhem,

 

Unfortunately ISY needs the Primary (your Z-Stick) to relinquish and transfer primary back to ISY. In this process, ISY does not do much except accepting the role. As such - and especially since ISY can go back to primary after rest - I am quite certain the issue is with Z-Stick.

 

With kind regards,

Michel

It's also worth noting, when you shift primary you have to remove and re-enroll secure devices anyway, as the crypto key material is not replicated to the receiving primary anyway.

So others are using the zensys tools?
