  • Looks like it is missing some steps between the READY and DONE steps. Have you tried to add it with the generic Z-wave inclusion option (the one under Homey menu option). This should include it still as the dimmer 2. Maybe something wrong with devi…
  • @hnijveen ; On what version are you (homey & app).  If it is 0.9.1 with the app on latest 1.0.6: Open the chrome console and try to include it again see what steps it goes through (copy&paste the result here) PS: have you tried to power cy…
  • @hnijveen ; try decreasing the distance to a maximum of 2 meter. Which is the maximum recommended distance for pairing any z-wave device
  • @RobertLijkendijk  the app is from 0.9.2, which will come (probably) this Friday, 0.9.2 will fix some bugs with the z-wave driver.
  • I've read a little more about routing of zwave and is a little different then was in my head but same principle: Nodes (= powered devices) cannot Configure themselves to have good routing, for this they need an HEAL command from the primary node (a…
  • There is a huge difference in "being able" and "already able".  Homey isn't using default software, if they did they couldn't make the software like it is now (app based) and wouldn't have to rewrite the library (like they did last week) that is ta…
  • Z-wave devices can only help with choosing the shortest path.  If the controller doesn't know what to do with the extra packets that is being added (thats why controllers can create a mesh map) And/or doesn't know what to look for. It will not do a…
  • Z-Wave devices can indeed only be attached to 1 controller at a time, factory reset makes homey be a different controller for devices 
  • @MrDutchfighter ;; did you do a power cycle yet? (pull the power plug and re-insert it again)
  • For me the distance of battery powered z-wave devices has increased about half the distance (9 meters direct sight, 6 to 7 meters through concrete floor/walls) and a lot more stable and fast in response (seeing motion -> triggering) Distance of n…
  • @mauriceb  wooops  my bad. then you are the only one  Have you tried to power cycle homey? (take of the power off for atleast 10-15 seconds) all capabilities are implemented for the RGBW controller
  • @mauriceb  You seem not to be the only one: https://github.com/athombv/com.fibaro/issues/4#issuecomment-236365225
  • @tweaqer  thats because there are 2 versions of the sensor supported (Z-Wave & Z-Wave+ (Z-Wave V5)). But both should work normally. For settings you will have to wait for a pull request (merge) at github, and then that app to be published in th…
  • If you know how to install apps from github, then it is definitely possible.

  • @djefmo ;; they didn't say ALL devices are supported from the start. If your device is not on the list of "supported devices" then it is not included (yet). The fibaro app itself is not even a week old (I.E.: Just 2 Days), it's almost impossible to …

  • @RogierVanWijk ; All Z-wave devices that do not have an app created for them, are Standard devices like you said (only 1x on/off). There is no "regular device" options like there was before, only devices that can be added with an app. Like all other…

  • too bad the trello hasn't been updated to which apps they are going to create.
  • heeft waarschijnlijk hiermee te maken. Dus bekende bug. https://github.com/athombv/homey/issues/728
  • then that must be something with Z-Wave+ not being triggered properly, normal Z-Wave motion gets triggered every time. It's already on github, so i think it will be fixed soon enough https://github.com/athombv/com.fibaro/issues/3
  • @thayoung1  you can wake up the device by tripple clicking the B-Button on the sensor. after that it should add the corresponding parameters to the sensor
  • @phil_s  have you woken up the sensor after the save setting? (forget to tell) if so: try adding it as the other motion sensor in the app inclusion popup: And don't forget to add the 1 to group 1
  • @ all for the power cycle, take off the power of homey for at least 10-15 seconds (more = better) but you don't need more then 30 seconds
    in Homey v0.9.1 Comment by caseda July 2016
  • @JarnoBos  The temperature capability has not been added to the door sensor (yet) the same is for the smoke sensor. So you will have to wait for athom to implement it as well.
    in Homey v0.9.1 Comment by caseda July 2016
  • @thayoung1  the capability of the Tamper Alarm has not been implemented (yet), just the motion alarm. so you can't add it in any other way then 1 - wait for athom to implement, 2 - create your own app to include it
  • i edited my previous post, but in case you did not saw it, it doesn't really matter if you leave the id number in field 3.
  • @phil_s ; add a 1 (the id of homey) to the association group 1 field, and save the settings. you can leave the 1 in group 3, but it is not really needed
  • @phb ; pull the power plug of homey and re-insert it
    in Homey v0.9.1 Comment by caseda July 2016
  • @phil_s a quick glance at the fibaro code makes me wonder if the id's are put right in the association groups There needs to be at least the id of homey in association group 1 (code make it seems only the id to be in group 3)
  • @RobertLijkendijk  have you tried to power cycle? (pull the power plug and insert it again)
    in Homey v0.9.1 Comment by caseda July 2016
  • @ericjanvanputten ; well actually, your in bad luck. (sorry, that i only just noticed this) The only default capability for z-wave devices without an app is On/Off, but the sensor doesn't have an on/off feature. So you will have to wait for the Aeo…
