Hi,
anybody who have tried the z-wave enabled LED lights from Steinel?
E.g. the outdoor lamp 810?

There's no app for them (have written the company and asked if they would consider it) - but it should be compliant to protocols and could possibly be used at least with basic settings as a generic device...

So, anybody tried these?

TedTolboom

Hi @cbh, 
I did not try them myself... but also looked at them and send the manufacturer also an mail; but did not get a response...

It should be possible to create an app for it based on the information listed on the product certification page..

cbh

Plan to order one - we could team up on making an app?

TedTolboom

Not sure if anyone else has one of these Steinel lights....

Below app should provide basic support for the Steinel lights (untested):

would be great for the steinel outdoor motion sensor with zwave...
better than a fibaro motion sensor i think!

@phil_s I've generated the app based on the product certification data of the Z-wave alliance...

It includes support for all the current Steinel SmartHome products:

• Motion detector IS 140-2 Z-Wave 
• Indoor light RS LED D2 Z-Wave 
• Outdoor light L 810 LED iHF Z-Wave 
• Floodlight XLED home 2 Z-Wave 

I don't have these lights myself; all devices are however from Z-wave perspective similar.
So if someone is able to test this app with one of these devices, I'll have the info to release it to the app store.
@cbh is planning to do so with the Output light.

I plan to test the 810 and the D2 - but it'll be a few weeks before I can as I
1) don't have the lamps yet and
2) ain't at home most of the time the next ten-something days.

TedTolboom

Merged the original topic into a new app specific topic in Apps section.

phil_s

great @TedTolboom !!
i will order the motion sensor in the future now there is the app by you!
but i think it will take some time... 

but thank you very much, now i know what comes next!

TedTolboom

Anybody already having a Steinel Z-wave sensor / light that is able to test the app?

Julian

@TedTolboom
The motion detector is exactly what I was looking for for my new house! Was at first thinking either a KAKU one (but that runs on batteries) or a normal 'Gamma' one and hooking it up to a fibaro binary module.

I think I will order the motion detector and test it so I know it works before we move in. Will keep you informed. Also the floodlight looks very nice.

TedTolboom

@Julian would be great if you could test the Steinel app.
Can you contact me on Slack to discuss results / details?

TedTolboom

v0.0.1 (initial release) is available on https://github.com/TedTolboom/de.steinel/tree/development

TedTolboom

v0.0.2 (changelog in op) has been released to the development branch on GitHub:
https://github.com/TedTolboom/de.steinel/tree/development

Luminance and motion are reported, light can be switched and dimmed though Homey.

Note: above mobile card (provided by @cbh) does not show luminance reporting yet

Hi Ted,

I recently bought the XLED Home 2 FloodLight Z-Wave and currently using it as an generic z-wave device which gives the basic functionality but need to use the raw configuration which ofcourse works, any idea when your app will be in the Athom App store ?

I've updated the development branch to prepare for an app-store version:

v 0.1.0
* Update devices to light class (re-inclusion required)
* Add sensor capability (custom) flow cards for motion alarm and measure_luminance
* Update Homey meshdriver to 1.2.10

Please note, re-inclusion is required to get this version working... this version should provide all options.
App store version will be some cleaning up of the app (mainly naming of the parameters)....

TedTolboom

The Steinel app has been released to the app store:

changelog:

v 1.0.0
* App store release

Thanks to all who contributed in testing this app
