Aeotec Smart Switch 6 / Door Sensor 6

What did I wrong?
I add the device Aeotec Switch 6 to my homey
Then I make a flow, see below:
But nothing happens! The Smart Switch doesn't response on any commando. Like time flow or A specific user came home flow.
I'm really new in the domotica world, so I hope someone can help me further.
It also happens with my Aeotec Door/Window Sensor 6. Nothing response on my commando's to my z-wave devices.
Adding z-wave devices sometime hang with the learning mode. So probably the homey isn't really steady on this moment with z-wave devices?
I'm using version 0.8.30

This module is sold in multi webshops, Google is your friend.
[edit]Oops, search the wrong module.... Look like the Door sensor isn't sold yet.
As far I can see your not doing anything wrong/strange. Homey is still big beta, so maybe this is a small bug. You could try to search Git if there's already a issue about this or just wait on a Patch Friday.
Looking further to this, I get the feeling that you try to trigger on the door sensor ( it doesn't which type it is) and hopes that Homey knows who's opening/closing that door. But Homeys can't know who's opening/closing the Door. The "IF" "specific user came home" block works with GeoFencing. So the Android App and Homey check if you go outside the GeoFence zone and when you enter the zone, Homeys "knows"; "That specific user came home" and Triggers the module.
So this Flow uses GeoFencing and not the Door/Window sensor and if you want to use the Door/Window sensor as triggering device, you need to add that to the "IF" column.
Did you try if you see something changing in the devices section?
No, not at all. I have made I simple trigger (again), but really nothing happens.
@Michael
Nothing happens when I change something in the device selection.
Even the Test button in the Flow Management isn't working.
It's strange that a simple z-wave device still not working after some firmware builds.
My KAKU devices are most of the time working well.
So join the Z-Wave config club in one of the almost countless Z-Wave device topics on the forum......
And please search Git if there's already a isseu and if there's no issue, create one.
You would have found a topic already . you would also have found out that none of the aeontec zwave works like they should . there is some info during the interview that is not being passed correctly.
There's also a ticket in github for taco to further investigate the problem. but they first need to get zwave stable
I'm adding the device again, but I can't control it within the GUI. It's still not responding on a simple on/off command.
Someone any idea?
You suck at search
No worrys , did youre job for free this time.
Youll even get the url to the issue report
https://github.com/athombv/homey/issues/324
I have a working Aeotec Door/Window Sensor 6 with the following config:
Doesn't it fail while getting interviewt on youre homey ?
It fails and gets added as a non triggerable default device with no option to config parms....
This is what I see:
The devices does not switch however in my setup.
It also has a slider from 0 to 100% as if homey thinks its a dimmer.
Cant get mine to switch ? Does yours do ?
Zwave is crashing every hour so not that it can be of use but good to know if you can switch or not.
Have the same after a day
