I would like to add a remote control RC2:
Product Type ID: 0x1000
Product ID: 0x0300
Manufacturer Id: 0x0115
I'm not sure if this is a generic behavior.
Could you remove your repository? Someone opened an issue there. He now opened the same issue in my repository
Can you check the node ID of the device and post a section of the Z-wave log of this Node ID (filtered) when you switch on / off and dim the device?
I guess a driver needs to be made for the RC2..
the hints / options I see:
1. Make the driver yourself. Start at developers.athom.com and peek at comparable device drivers. I can personally recommend the Remotec Scene Master code. I guess you already own a RC2 so you have the option to test it.
2. Request the developer of the app (@priknr1) to make the driver for the RC2 and support in testing / debugging of the driver
3. To put option 2. higher on the ambition list of @Priknr1 use the yellow button at the App Store page
Although I encourage option 3 as recognition for @Priknr1's work, I strongly support the people taking option 1.
Simply to extend the community contributions to add support for more (legacy) devices...
So I intend to apply this functionality soon. (but going on a holiday next week)
It is something I can try and find out with the zwave.me devices I have myself, and hope it works the same for devices I dont own.
@Richy the beta release I had for this app crashes on adding he RC2. Right now I am pretty busy with work and all, and my priorities (besides work) lie with the feedback of local changes, and my other apps at the moment.
thank you for the options. In the meantime @Priknr1 already started adding the remote it seems
@Priknr1
Thank you for trying. Hope it will work soon.
Can I do something on the work?
Maybe providing device configuration info?
Enjoy holidays!
Thanks for offering, but most documentation for settings and all is easily found, so I will manage. But again, not sure yet when I will have the time.
Thanks for the effort.
any news on supporting the RC2?
I would like to use it because speech control is only getting worse...
what can I do to get support for it?
I havent had the time to have a look at the remote myself.
If you want support for this device anytome soon, you might want to find another programmer that is able and willing. You could try on slack (https://slack.athom.com/) or mae a new topic on the forum.
I recently bought a Haseman Z-Wave DIN Rail 6x2kW Universal Switch Module (http://store.zwavecenter.com/image/catalog/PDF/DIN-6CH_RELAY_DATA.pdf). I couldn't find any info on the device being supported, but they claim to be compatible with Fibaro Home Lite/2 RaZberry 2, Z-Wave Me, Vera, etc so I thought let's just give it a go and see what happens.
Homey recognises the device as a generic device with a single switch and I have found out the following info from the node information of the device:
Manufacturers ID: 277 (Wave.Me?)
Product Type ID: 272
Product ID: 1
I was advised by @TedTolboom to request inclusion into the Zwave.Me app. I am willing to test of course!
Hi, The manufacturer ID is indeed the same as Zwave.me, so it seems like another rebrand (which isn't uncommon for zwave.me)
I don't really have the time to add support for this device right now, if I am able to at all, since I am not exactly the best programmer over here, but I started learning, becasue no one else was building support for the devices I have myself.
If you want support for it anythime soon, I suggets you either learn yourself to apps for homey, and add the support for it yourself into my zwave.me app, (the slack community, including Ted who you mentioned, is really helpfull)
Or you find another programmer to be willing (which would probably cost you some financial persuasion)
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news
First thing I need to know is which of the devices I find in the code is most resembling my device so I can at least start with 'borrowing' the correct code ;-)
is the quickest way
with this link you can get an invite:

When it comes to the device, I dont think there is similar one.
BUT: you should think in capabilities, your device has multiple "onoff" capabilities (turning on/off outputs), and a "measure_temperature" capability. So find devices who have this too.
Be aware, that at the moment, there are apps written in SDK2, and SDK1.
The zwave.me app, is still in SDK1
Only problem might be: not all manufacturers are consistent in using the correct z-wave command classes.
Once you would have made an initial version, you should run it via node.js. Make sure
debug: true, is stated in the driver. Than you can get some info during pairing the device, and trying the capabilities
