Greenwave Powernode 5/6 extension driver

Thanks for that, although we’d also have a voltage issue. Our plugs are 230-240v :disappointed_relieved:

Not to mention z-wave is a different frequency here. Double :disappointed_relieved:

This driver is working great for me now. When I first added the device, I could get power reporting but I could not turn off the outlets. Turns out I played with the "room color" wheel and left it on the lock setting.

The manual says this is a setting which can be used to monitor power on things you don't want turned off, like appliances. It seems the color most people would probably want selected is black.

Just thought I'd pass this along regarding this device. Might save someone else a few minutes figuring it out.

I have 2 of these Greenwave Powernode 6 (NP310) but having trouble getting them to work.
Tried to download the updated drivers but none of the links seem to work anymore is it possible to post the driver again?

Apologies, not sure why they’re not working. Here you go.

update
This link is also corrected.

That’s still not working. I’ll need to check out why. I’ll post the driver directly in a while.

Original post updated, thanks to @stephack pointing out the issues.

Thx.

Now updated :+1: apologies for the delay.

Ah ok, you have the 6 node strip?

Hmmm, I'll need to check it. Sadly I'm away from home this week, but I will check it out ASAP. Can you tell me what you were doing which generated the errors, so I can reproduce it?

It just generates turning any of them on or off the switches work normally without problems only when you check out log it seems to generate an java error.

Ok, many thanks for that. I'll check that out :+1:

Odd, I'm not seeing it.

Parent logs

Child

That said, they arent behaving properly. I'm connected via VPN, but I'm not seeing the device status updated (on/off etc). Sadly I'll need to wait until I'm back in fornt of it.

Mine are also working well, thanks to @Royski !! The power reporting is hit or miss. I'm going to try the "black" icon on the selector wheel. I thought it was just a dumb wheel with color codes on it, didn't realize it had any functionality.
EDIT- My 6 outlet strips are NP-222B and I'm in the USA
My logs have no errors:

It appears the 2 versions support the same command classes, but have different z-wave cert numbers, not sure if the functionality should vary, but my uneducated guess is it should not.

This is the eu version 6 strip NP310-F maybe i'm doing something wrong or missing a driver cannot see power usage of it too, but controlling the strip works well.
I have this HE for 2 weeks now trying to switch from fibaro HC2 to this but it's not easy getting everything to work normal again.

You did install both the parent and child drivers?

Can you send a screenshot of the device and childs?

Hi @Royski Roy.
To save me looking through the specs and as I'm a lazy so and so, are you finding these reliable and easily controlled with HE and your driver?
Also, the USB outlets. Do they give a good power O/P and are these controllable or always on.
I like the look of these and may have to invest. :smile:
TIA.

They’re very hard to come by now as GW stopped producing them. I kept checking eBay for a long while before one came up.

They’re stable for me, as is the power reporting as it reports on change. But as far as I’m aware they don’t have USB?

Aghhh.
My bad.
I've just noticed that the one I found is not a Greenwave Powernode. :blush:
It is a wifi one the has 4 USB ports.

I'll go back to sleep now. Sorry..........

The drivers are exact copy of the ones on your github page.
I will try some more things during weekend maybe remove everything and reinstall.
