So I made the switch from Vera to HE. Vera was somewhat reliable but would randomly drop devices overtime.
Anyway I am enjoying HE thus far and adding all my devices in. I have 7 Leviton DZ6HD devices and they work great and were very customizable with Vera. After adding them to HE, I noticed many of the options are not available. From what I can remember, there was an option for how fast the lights would turn on or off, keep the dimmer LEDS always on when the light is on or dimmer LEDS off when the lights are on, and a dim percent when turned on.
Would there be a new driver or custom commands to send to the devices? I tried playing around with the various generic types with no luck. Funny thing is that some of the switches still have the settings from my Vera since some turn on/off instantly and other fade on/off. I am really trying to get away from the fade option.
You can use this today to adjust them all if you wanted to manually set the values.
For each device, swap the Driver to use the Device Driver and click save. Then you will find a Set Parameter button with three fields. Fill in the blanks, click the button. Rinse, repeat.
For example, the fade on feature can be set to instant on by putting 1, 1, 0 in the three fields then clicking Set Parameter.
When you're all done, swap the driver back to the original.
Hmmm. Thanks for that info. Those values look familiar.
I changed the type to Device but I am not seeing a Set Parameter button. All I see is Configure, 'Delete All Child Devices, Delete All Scheduled Jobs, Delete All States, and Get Info. Am I missing another step?
Yup. After looking for the paremeter, I said to myself to see if there is a driver that needs to be installed, lol. So I installed the mike.maxwell tool. Thanks for the help.
I was able to setup everything the way I want but once thing I noticed a bit strange is the paramenter values.
So for this dimmer the LED indicator to stay on is value 255. I tried multiple times to set the value to 255 did a factory reset on the switch and it would not stick. The logs always showed 0. I changed the value to -1 and that accepted. The LED would stay on as the instructions say. Just for testing, I tried 254 and that also generated a 0 on the logs. Any idea why it would do that? Is there a max limit for the value field?
