full devices reset

@akbooer

Since a couple of weeks/months, we are in the process to redo 5 rooms @ home (kids are moving from room to another room) and of course, I would need to redo a bunch of device name and room name in Zway..

Is there an easy way to tell openLuup to completely start over fresh without having to delete/rename them one by one in openLuup ?

Help with Z-Way plugin
J

I hope this is the correct forum – apologies if not!

I have a Raspberry Pi3 with a Razberry Z-Wave card installed. I have installed the Z-Way software and have successfully included a Fibaro Z-Wave switch on the Z-Wave network. I can toggle the switch on and off successfully from my laptop through port 8083 of the Raspberry Pi3.

On the same Raspberry Pi3 I have installed openLuup on which I have installed the Z-Way plugin. I can access this through port 3480 on the Raspberry Pi3 from my laptop.

Here is where I have come to a dead stop. How do I get access to the Fibaro Z-Wave switch from the openLuup application? I can find no documentation that tells me specifically how to do this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

_John.

openLuup Z-Way bridge: Version Log

Master Branch: 2020 Release 4.5

Roll-up of recent changes in development branch.

Zway Bridge
Fibaro Wall plug power metering
PerHP

I have an odd issue which seems to be only for Fibaro wall plugs. They come in to Z-Way with two "electric meter" entrys, one "Power" meter and a couple of alarm entrys. In addition to the switch that is.

One of the "electric meters" is KWh and the other one is seemingly Watts, but it stays at 0/-1w. The "Power" meter shows the Watts used right now.

When these come into openluup, the wrong electric meter is selected for displaying the Watts, is there any way to manipulate which one openLuup uses? I see that the sub channel for power also is transferred, but it isn't in the data Veraflux is transmitting to my influxdb..

Haven't used the watts reading for anything before now, now i want to estimate when my dryer is done based on power usage. 🙂

Zway Bridge
Renaming device name...
DesTD

@akbooer

What's the "logic" behind zway plugin about renaming ? Are you always renaming when starting openLuup ?

Zway Bridge
Fibaro TRV on ZWay/OpenLuup?
I

Having some trouble getting the Fibaro TRV device working with the ZWay bridge. The device works in the ZWay (Zwave.Me) Smart Home GUI, and creates a number of devices in OpenLuup, some of which appear to have the right variables in it. Changing the XML and JSON files makes no difference.

I also tried creating a separate child device for Parameter 67 (using the gui for the ZWay bridge, see below), and setting the XML/JSON types for that device (like I've havd to do for a few other devices). This results in a device that correctly displays the TRV setpoint, but chaning the setpoint in the OpenLuup gui does not result in anything being transmitted to/by ZWay.

Z-way token Expiration
rafale77R

@akbooer, I just woke up to a z-way bridge token expiration again forcing me to login again and reload openluup. It appears to happen once a week. It doesn't appear that the auto renewal of the token is working?

Why Migrate to Z-way from vera and how?
rafale77R

I expect this document to be dynamic based on inputs from people who try but did not want to completely rewrite it here:

Zway Bridge
XMLs & jsons without vera
P

Nearly there with the migration ..

Is it ok to use older device files or do they get updated from time to time?

Now that a fresh openLuup is up and running and connected to Zway where's the best place to source device files without vera? I probably have them on another openLuup install but not 100% which ones to copy over.

Zway Bridge
Error after device delete
PerHP

One of my wall plugs died yesterday, so i had to delete it without exclusion. When I did this, the openluup device switched to this:
7d1a5d39-cfdd-4c25-b2a2-79311736615f-image.png

And some .js issues arrived at the bottom of the screen:
1935b845-ea64-4576-8d40-04489ae10fb8-image.png

What to do?

Zway Bridge
Device setup - organization strategy
PerHP

I've finally gotten the stuff to work together. Now - before I migrate all the vera devices, how do i use this?

How does the variables NameDevices and CloneRooms work? (is there a manual or description of the plugin?)
CloneRooms seems obvious, but is that the best way to go when I have more bridges?

Set up rooms and names in Z-way? No rooms in z-way, and distribute them in openluup?
Zway Bridge
Changing device type for wall controller
A

I have an old Z-wave.me wall controller that I still use for turning the espresso machine on and off. The controller controls an Aeotec Micro Switch that for the moment is still on my Vera.

The wall controller has always been a bit tricky to work with on Vera. On my old UI5 VeraLite I managed to get it associated to the switch.
On the UI7 Vera I never got that to work, instead I could use it as a trigger in Reactor to detect when sl_SceneActivated was 1 or 0.

I have moved the wall controller to Z-way and there it is included as it should.
a30b06dd-1f3c-4ca6-9966-b0a6f183de04-image.png Compared to when it was connected to the Vera it has proper on/off buttons so that it can be controlled from the Z-way GUI.

The command classes are the following:
68a54e6b-b240-40b2-95bb-9696bf7789cf-image.png In OpenLuup it still shows up as it did in the Vera, i.e. only showing battery.
985acfb7-6af9-4cf0-a426-79d4358baf6e-image.png Is it possible to change device type so that it get the right properties in OpenLuup?

At the moment it does not have any useful properties except for battery level. It e.g. lacks the sl_SceneActivated variable.

Another step would then be to move the Aeotec switch to Z-way and to then associate the wall controller to the switch in Z-way. It seems as if this can be done in the ExpertUI.

Recreate Zway device in Openluup

If a zway device have been manually deleted in openluup, What would be the right way to recreate it, or re-sync with the z-way-server?

Changing Device type from dimmer to Shutter
R

Just finished migrating to Zway, Although there are some devices that are being detected as a dimmer when in fact are Shutters.

What would be the best route to properly change how this devices are being detected by the ZWay plugin on openluup?

Zway Bridge
Child device undo failure
rafale77R

Hi AK,

I must be missing something but I am having now some devices fail on the bridge due to them running out of battery. Upon battery replacement, they function properly on z-way-server but the failure remains over the bridge. The failure shows up on the parent device and it says that a specific command class has failed. Looking at the return API json, it should not return any command class level failure however so I am not sure where the bridge gets its failed state from...

edit: Nevermind, I figured it out. It is a gap in data alignment between the different z-way APIs. The zwave and JS API got the update that the device recovered but not the smarthome API. Pausing and restarting the zwave app on z-way fixed it.

Zway Bridge
All Z-way devices "disabled" attribute is set to 1
K

I noticed the change when I switched from the RaZberry to UZB (During the switch all devices moved to the Room 101 briefly, maybe that had something to do with it). Any idea why this would have happened? Can I easily change them all back to enabled? Also, what exactly does this attribute do? I only noticed because none of my z-wave devices were showing up in Imperihome and when I set the "disabled" attribute back to 0, the device shows up. Thanks.

Zway Bridge
Z-Way electric meter devices not in openLuup
I

So I started experimenting by moving some of my wallplugs and power switch zwave devices over from VeraPlus to Z-Way.

In Z-Way this results in different elements for switching, Watts and kWh. Some even have Volts which I never saw on Vera.

But using the Z-Way plugin in openLuup only the Switch element is visible and all other elements of the zwave node are not.

I don't really know to much about Z-Way or the plugin, but am trying to learn on the run.

Maybe someone can give me some pointers what and where to look for to solve this?

z-way with home assistant
S

Just wanted to point out and start the topic of the following:

We are working on a project that will allow to use Z-Way library as the core of Z-Wave in Home Assistant. First releases will be around June/July I believe

Additionally there are ways to support Z-Way from HAss via HTTP requests. This is a community project and we have no deep knowledge about it.

Why would that make you reluctant? It doesn’t seem to be any different from any other local startup supporting funds in other countries.

      Ahh maybe you should use the GitHub/development branch rather than the master... The master is not quite up to date. @akbooer opportunity for a merge?

        Yeah... always a good time / never a good time.

        Maybe I should just do all development in the master branch...

            After updating now my Neo Coolcam, Fibaro wallplug are showing Watts and kWh inside the one element. So I am a happy camper about this.

            My Greenwave Powernode 6 switch still has Watts and kWh missing in openLuup though. This device is probably a bit strange since it is one device with 6 switch plugs that all have Watts and kWh.
            For this device I will have make some changes but do not know yet which of the files do I need to edit to accomplish that or what to change/add. That will be my study object to learn a bit more how things work.
            Since Vera wasn't able to show this either I was hoping this would be possible easely possible with Z-Way.

            Also I have noticed something strange in comparison to the printscreen made by @rafale77. My device numbering does not start with the 20-prefix, but has the normal openLuup numbering.

              Awesome that you got the first problem solved!!

              About the device numbering, I suspect it is because the device creation was not made on the right version of the bridge. I would have to go look up the lua code to delete all the bridged devices so you can recreate them. @akbooer?

              For the greenwave, I think it can be fixed. Will need to add some implementations to the bridge.

                Ahh for the device numbering you also need to run the dev branch of openLuup... Are you running that?

                    Just to be sure I checked the openLuup version. Was running v2020.04.17 but now I'm updated to 2020.05.01
                    Pretty sure that's the latest version 😉

                      Haha... yeah hard to beat that. ok when I get a little bit of time I will look at fixing the greenwave multiswitch. Just to be sure could you get a print screen of all the devices and command classes from this device? As of what you show it doesn't appear to be sending power monitoring info.

                            @iRobot, It helps but the cgi @akbooer is asking for would be better.
                            @akbooer Could you please provide the lua script to delete the bridge devices so as to recreate the devices. I get the feeling they were previously created and are not numbered right. I could rewrite it but am typo prone without testing...

                              @rafale77 @akbooer Just update the Z-Way plugin to the github.master but still only a header is showing.

                              Maybe I'm better of trying a fresh install of openLuup and the plugin in a different VM. The one I'm using now is kind of my production as well.

                                Maybe brute force would be to delete the z-way bridge device, openluup will reload, check if the child devices are still there, if they are, delete them (was not an option to do manually for me as I had several hundreds) and then re-add the bridge device. All the child devices would be recreated then.

                                  No, no, openLuup is not like Vera in that respect. Deleting everything and starting again is seldom the answer.

                                  Following @rafale77 ’s proposal, however, the easiest thing is actually to delete the ZWay plugin device and recreate it.

                                        Do check Room 101 for any “lost” devices. You can delete any all in one go using the openLuup plugin action EmptyRoom101.

                                          Deleted the ZWay plugin and removed the CGI and L_ZWay files, checked all child devices are deleted also and checked room 101.

                                          After installing the ZWay plugin the CGI file is missing in /etc/cmh-ludl/cgi.
                                          I retried several times using the appstore from both ALTUI and openLuup console.
                                          To make sure its not some linux or user rights problem I even set /etc/cmh-ludl to 777.

                                          I just set my VM back from a snapshot and will be trying again tomorrow. Time to go to bed now 🙂
