Trying to implement Z-Wave on my EISY - can't find instructions

[ScottAvery]

I transitioned to EISY this summer when the 994i went end of support and am now trying to add in a fresh install of Z-Wave.  I had Z-Wave locks set up on the 994i previously but abandoned them when I moved, so I didn't carry anything over in the upgrade.   I have managed to get the Zmatter USB module recognized, added a range extender and a switch through the LAN Console.  The switch responds to On/Off requests from console, and the console sees remote clicks on the switch, so comms is good.

Problems:

1. After installing it in the console, UD Mobile does not see the switch.  Am I supposed to use my phone to add devices instead of the console?
2. I can't figure out how to change parameters.  Its a Zooz ZEN71 - instructions from Zooz say to set parameter 21 to value of 1 to make it accept a momentary switch on the traveller in an S2 configuration.  I try in the console to set that parameter and either write changes or set configuration, but all that happens is a little highlight circle around the last button that is clicked, no comms seems to be sent.    can't see it in UD Mobile to try there.  how do i set a parameter?  need to use the multi-click setting procedure on device itself?
3. I can't find any good general instructions for a new zwave install.  it took me forever to figure out how to add the first device.  Plenty of talk of moving a setup through an upgrade, but nothing on how to configure new zwave stuff in the EISY.  Anyone have a link to such instructions?

1. So you see the switch in the console but not UD Mobile?  Did you sync UD Mobile?

@ScottAvery Scott....sometimes you need to "re-sync" UDM to get it to see new devices. 

-go to Settings in bottom right corner. 

-scroll down to Controllers and click on it. 

-Choose Eisy... you will then be prompted with the choice to Synchronize, Choose yes. 

-After it's complete, it will ask you if you want to delete old data.. say yes. 

It should show up after that. 

In regards to the parameters, in the Admin Console, go to the switch and see if there is an "arrow" to the left that you can click on to EXPAND the elements of the z-wave device. You would find the parameters there. If there is no arrow, then right click on the z-wave device and then zwave / synchronize / update with interview as shown below.

That should bring in all the parameters.

For your first question, did you do a "synchronize" in UD Mobile after adding the new device(s)? From the main screen, click on the three vertical dots at the upper right corner, and click on synchronize.

Thanks dbwarner5, mmb and Guy, that resolved the UD Mobile synch.  No luck on the parameters, however.  Any way I try it makes no difference, before or after an update with interview.  There are multiple UI features that seem to indicate they are changing parameters but they don't seem to change anything.

I change Z-wave parameters pretty regularly in my eISY.  Using both the admin console and programmatically.  

I set the values in the admin console making sure to click "Set Configuration" to enact.  And then I usually click "write changes".  I have never figured out a way to see what they currently are, but changing this way always seems to work.

You can also change the parameters programmatically:

I guess that is the problem.  I have set it your way several times but nothing ever seems to change.  if I look for that parameter it always says it is still zero.
