[RELEASE] Inovelli VZM36 Fan/Light Canopy Community Driver

Switching to This Driver

As mentioned above, switching to this driver requires some extra work if you are currently using Inovelli's driver (this is because their child devices are created as "component" children that prevent modification or deletion).

To switch:

  1. If you are current using the fan or light child devices from the Inovelli driver in any apps (automations), remove them from those apps first. You can either remember to add them back later or create a temporary virtual device to hold their places in the meantime if needed.

  2. Switch to the "Device" driver on the parent device, and run the "Delete All Child Devices" command. (While you're here, it wouldn't hurt to run "Delete All Current States," "Delete All Scheduled Jobs," and "Delete All States" just to clean things up, but this isn't strictly necessary.)

  3. Switch the driver to this one: "Inovelli VZM36 Fan/Light Canopy Module".

  4. Run the "Configure" command after switching drivers.

  5. If needed, add the new fan and light child devices back into the apps from Step 1.
