Adding Homeseer WS100+ switch

I added my WS100+ switch to Hubitat and it's super weird. Device Name and Device Label showed up as Ring Alarm Retrofit. What the crap is that? I changed them both to Front Port Light and Type (I can't remember what it was by default) to Generic Z-Wave Central Scene Switch. Is this the correct device type to use with this switch in order to be able to use the hold, double tap, and triple tap features?

Under the main device are 8 instances of Device Name "Generic Component Contact Sensor" labeled "Ring Alarm Retrofit contact 1 [through 8]", all with Generic Component Contact Sensor as the Type. I assume these are the 8 "buttons" for press, hold, double tap, and triple tap? Should I change any of the settings for these 8 devices?

Thatโ€™s strange.. Can you switch the driver to โ€œDeviceโ€ and click get info .. It will put a fingerprint in the log.. This will allow us to correct the discovery.

Done. What does this do? Does it automatically send logs to you? There was absolutely no feedback when I clicked the Get Info button, so I don't know if it actually did anything.

Changing the device type back to central scene switch. What about the other 8 devices? Should I change anything on them?

Sorry.. I should have been more clear.. Can you copy and paste that log entry here?

The child devices should be fine

Which log entry? As I mentioned, nothing appeared to happen when I clicked that button. Where am I looking for these logs?

Are the child devices the double tap and triple tap "buttons"? If so, I will rename them to make them easy to identify when using in automations.

The double and triple tap actions don't seem to work when I leave the device type on the child devices set as "Generic Component Contact Sensor." They always show as closed, so I can't use closure to trigger actions. But they aren't contact sensors anyway. However, the device type is greyed out. As mentioned above, I have changed the parent device to Generic Z-Wave Central Scene Switch. How do I correctly set up and use the child devices? (In SmartThings, these are seen as a button push, so I would have tried changing the device type to button if it weren't greyed out.)
