Basic "Plus" Z-Wave tool, with associations

[MrFarmer]

Hi,
I was looking for a way to set associations for a Z-Wave Button controller (Heatit Z-Push Wall Controller, 700 series based). After some tries I added the function to the Basic Z-Wave Tool, hence the Plus.

It is a simple version, but it does what I needed it for. Using associations is more responsive than using the Button Controllers App. Now close to a physical switch. The code is here GitHub - reneboer/Hubitat: My first Hubitat things.

Any chance the function to set and remove associations gets added to the Hubitat version of the Basic Z-Wave tool? I am sure it can be done better than my attempt.

Cheers Rene

What do I know, but the Hubitat people don't seem to be fans of association.

@mike.maxwell created the Basic Z-Wave Tool...

Super basic Z-Wave parameter tool

this is correct, for battery zwave devices they must be "woken up" in order to receive any configuration programming. Usually the method to do this is available physically via some sequence of pushing various buttons on the device, If this isn't noted in the manual, you can try getting the device to do whatever it's supposed to do, and very shortly after that send the parameter settings using the tool. In other words, for a contact, open/close it then send the command ect... If this doesn't …

You could submit a pull-request to Mike and see if he approves it, or finds another way to do it that he likes better.
