I have found that adding a z-wave Fibaro plug and a Aeotec Siren (or any other A brand probably) improved my mesh network greatly (the Neo devices do not seem to be very good on it on their own).
You also need constant powered devices like power plugs dimmers etc etc .
They act as a mesh router/repeater.
Especially the (powered!) neo wall switches on the 1st floor tend to lose the connection to the zwave network more than often.
Strange thing is that other (battery powered) neo PIR's on the same floor work just fine.
Let's hope this can be fixed with a software update!
Please note the name is not BETA for fun
Its based on the new z-wave mesh-driver and the 1 button wall switch should also work now.
Please report issue on github. That keeps things organized since im not much on the forum.
https://github.com/mruiter/com.neo/issues
Added support for the keyfob with 3 buttons and the red emergency button.
Its on my github in the beta branch. Please test
If there is someone with the single button SOS keychain i would love to have some info to implement it.
There's nothing to be found on the internet yet on id's and command classes
I can't imagine this isn't possible but better safe than sorry. Are the touch switches capable of switching all of the devices? In other words what is the maximum wattage of the touch switch?
Please test and if it works for you i would also like to know so i can push the beta to stable
No reports of non working stuff has come in. If this stays until monday i will publish the beta 2 stable. So please, if you have noticed something not working, let me know.
I will also start 2 place a donation button next to the App. This donation button will go to a created paypal account and every 25 euro's it hits will be donated to charity. If you have a charity cause you would like to receive a donation let me know.
The new firmware that wil be comming next week to experimental could show some improvement on the battery.
With any luck the 2.0 version of the app should also improve some since its using the brand new zwave mesh driver that is being created
I do have a Fibaro Multi movement sensor for a week. Working very well.
Now I like to buy a new sensor but looking around I also see beside the Fibaro also a Neo Coolcam moving sensor.
There is a price differnce between both (about €20).
So my question is what sensor to buy and why?
I only use the movement and lux part of thye sensor.
IS the Neo Coolcam as reliable as Fibaro?
Thanks for the answers
so neo will be perfect if you only need movement and lux
Some people say neo is better some say fibaro.
Bugspeople encounter are are caused by the homey core so there’s nothing the device can do about it.
I prefer neo. But what else can I say as creator of the neo app
at least neo app is based on the new sdkv2 and the new mesh driver.
fibaro seems a long way from that on homey
Its gonna be http://www.girodikika.nl/klop
The donation button will be on the app page when Athom accepts the new version of the app. so when the new version 2.0.3 will hit the appstore monday please be kind and donate. every little bit helps
Pay attention:
Due to the new mesh-driver and different siren cards there are some cards that need fixing in youre flows
The meter reset on plugs card is a new one. Youre flows will probably need fixing
Siren trigger card changed and could be that youre flows are broken and need fixing.
Enjoy
Never had an issue before and nothing has changed in the setup so think it just needs a ping
NB. It's not run out of battery as still flashes when it sees motion
Oddly it's still showing in my mesh, so not sure what's happened
EDIT: Actually, before reseting i just ran a basic test and it's picking up motion, so must be something wrong in the flow... which is odd, as I havent changed it!
EDIT2: No - it is the device... the flow has a luminence level which doesnt seem to be being picked up by the device (tho it's getting the motion alarm...) I'll try the triple press...
EDIT3: Okay, after triple pressing I now see a battery level (of 100 which i'm pretty sure is incorrect), but no luminence value... any ideas?!
Also, things look rather weird in the developer tools. Any ideas?
I'm talking about node 36 ('Wandlamp zolder'), the tiny stripe in the top of the below chart.
Also, what's up with the Espresso route, going through node 10, 50 and 2, all of which don't exist? It's a Neo Coolcam power socket by the way; all devices you see are Neo Coolcam, expect for the Homey of course
No info has been released by athom so far. They keep quit for now on the slack channels about the trouble.
I also see you have a NEO Pir. I'm getting some reports of Lux not getting in. Does that work OK for you ?
All my pirs keer reporting so i wonder if this is also caused by RC7 ?
Well, 2 look on the bright side. Battery reporting seems to work again for most devices on RC7
