Device unknown

This device showed up and I don't know what it is. I don't remember seeing it before. It has no name or device driver. I'm I missing something? Should I delete?


Usuall the "Device" driver is used when troubleshooting a device that isn't working properly. Do you remember having a device you were troubleshooting and changed to the "Device" driver?

No. I have not been troubleshooting any devices. Can it be deleted. Or just leave it alone

Would be best to know what it actually is, first. :slight_smile:

The "Get Info" option on the Device page should at least identify if it's a Zigbee or Z-Wave device. Open a browser tab for Logs and then try hitting Get Info and see what comes up in logs.

You could also try confirming that all of your lights/switches, contact sensors etc., are working/reporting as expected. That is a bit of a PITA depending on how many you have.

You can also take a look at your Z-Wave Details page and see if you have any odd looking entries there.

Looks like Z-Wave. Still not sure what it is. Wait is a yolink device. No it's not my mistake.

You can try changing the driver back to Yolink (or whatever you use w/those devices). Then hit the "Configure" button on the Device page and then try the device control buttons (On/Off) or whatver it is/does and see what device it controls.

No. I misread the label. Not yolink

This is from zwave details

So it's a switch, "ACT" brand/type. (Not familiar w/that.

If you tend to only have one brand of switches, change the device driver to that driver you use w/those switches, hit "Configure" and then turn it on/off from the Device page and see which light responds.

If you have multiple switch brands/types, just try each type until you find something that works and something turns on/off from the controls on the Device page.

I changed it to genetic zwave switch and it shows it's off and I can't turn on. I don't remember buying ACT devices

From the inclusters it looks like it's a Z-Wave (not plus) switch, so try changing the driver to the same driver as other Z-Wave (non-plus) switches you are using in your home.

None of the drivers work. Just will not turn on

Odd...

Post a screen shot of the entire row for the device from your Z-Wave Details page.

@junk7001 A search of the company shows they make float switches and water sensors. Does that ring a bell?

No, not at all. I have none of that type device. Only Yolink leak sensors

Its like an easter egg hunt before easter.... :slight_smile: obviously its connected or you wouldn't have been able to get info from it. maybe look at what devices its using as repeaters...

How do I find that info?

Or how about I just leave it. All my zwave devices are working fine

i think i found it for you
