I've looked but cannot find a community driver. Has anyone made one?
Model N4012 (ZW39M)
It self identifies as a Minoston Dimmer, but the driver includes temperature (of something). The device does not support this, so looking for something that hopefully exposes all the parameters.
Here is the Manual for it.
I'd suggest "Generic Z-Wave Plus Dimmer," which at least the older model (or this one -- not sure how old it is) was tested with.
If you want all the parameters and don't want to use something like the Basic Z-Wave Tool to set them, you could also try the newer "Generic Z-Wave DT Multilevel Switch" driver, which will dynamically read parameters from newer devices like this one and offer them in the UI.

Thanks for the recommendation, the Generic driver works well.
As a secondary question, is there a way to have an ON command go to 100% brightness as opposed to last level?
No, unless the device has a parameter to configure digital "on" commands to do that (or you write a custom driver that does this instead). I don't see anything in the manual that suggests it does.
However, you can just call a "Set Level" with "100" as the parameter instead of calling "On." A "Set Level" will turn the device on if it's off, so there is no reason to use "On" if you don't need to. (Different apps may have different settings that will invoke these commands, but that is what would be going on under the hood.)
None of the above, of course, will help with physical interaction (although a rule could respond to "on" and set it to "100" -- better if it separates physical from digital "on"s so you don't get this when you turn it on by setting to to a level from the hub and don't want this).
When using the Amazon Echo Skill to turn it on, though, it goes to last level. I suppose I could set up a virtual dimmer to accomplish this?
If it's just Alexa, you could probably make an Alexa Routine to "override" the behavior, with a trigger phrase of something like "Turn on <Light X>" and an action that sets it to 100%.
It would be nice if the built-in Generic Z-Wave Plus Dimmer driver was modified to allow for a Setting on the Preferences page to Enable or Disable Last Level.
All the driver does is send an "on" to the device, or more specifically, Z-Wave Switch Multilevel Set with a value of 0xFF (255), which is a standard Z-Wave value intended to simply turn the device on. It's up to the device how it responds to that. Some have configuration parameters that let you adjust the device's response to this behavior; apparently, yours does not.
Built-in drivers are not likely to add ways to circumvent standard behavior (it's not a matter of "enabling" or "disabling" anything), but maybe you can find/write a custom driver that does what you want (presumably sending 0x63, or 99, instead of 0xFF) if there is no other way. But you can do that with "Set Level" to 99 or 100 instead of "On" if you're sending a command from the hub already. For Alexa, a solution like the one I mentioned should work (assuming you want to say "on," as you can also say a level) if that's all you need. Good luck!
