Question: I have a number of simple zwave plus outlets from a company called Dragon, Model PA-100. (I have attached pictures).
I paired with HE, without any difficulty as a generic z wave outlet, with the following data:
Data * deviceType: 17479
manufacturer: 388
However, no matter what device type I changed it to, it doesn't seem to respond to a physical press, until I do a refresh on the device page. Unfortunately, I can't seem to select this device for polling.
Anyone have any suggestions how I can make HE respond to the physical press of these units?
"Lifeline association only supports the "manual reset" event. For instructions on how to “set lifeline associate” ,please refer to your wireless controller instructions. "
Lifeline association is what tells the device where to send the status reports. Yet this says it only offers "manual reset"
The confusing part is I don't understand how they'd get certification and thus permission to use the ZWave Plus logo, with only a partial compliance.
Are you sure it's Generic Z-Wave Outlet, and not Generic Z-Wave Smart Outlet? I was under the impression that all of the non-smart generic Z-Wave Switch/dimmer/outlet drivers were eligible for polling, but I've never tried to poll an outlet before so could be wrong about that one.
If Generic Z-Wave Outlet (non-smart) doesnt allow you to select for polling, you could try changing the driver to Generic Z-Wave Switch, which is available for polling. No idea if it would work but it's worth a shot.
Unfortunately, HE does not have a Generic Z-Wave Smart Outlet device handler.
I changed it to a smart switch, and it doesn't allow me to select it in the Polling program.
I also changed it to a generic zwave switch and it doesn't allow me to select it in the Polling program.
Sorry. You're quite correct. I changed it to a generic switch (even though its a zwave plus device), and I was allowed to select it to poll.
I hope that will make the "physical" presses show up.
