Good afternoon, i bought 6 Ring v2 contact sensors new from Amazon yesterday. They didnt work with my c5 hub, so i bought a c8 hub. I am in the app as a local connection and i see smartstart as an option. No matter what i do, adding via zwave or smartstart, the contact sensor never finishes adding itself. I get prompted for the pin on zwave, it sees the device on smartstart but udually just sits on pending for at least 2 hours. Ive tried it with all 6 sensors now, and none of thrm are working. My c8 hub is on the latest build, the c5 hub is off. Ive tried all the connection guide steps i can find in search. Nothing is working. I dont get it. Any ideas what might be going on????
Also having the same issue with a pack of 6 newer ring contact sensors (with small reset button on back).
After resetting the Ring Sensor the LED button flashes red and enters acquire mode where it blinks 3 times in a row pauses and blinks 3 times again. Put the Hubitat in Z-WAVE inclusion and nothing happens.
Open the app, use smartstart and it pretty immediately grabs the QR code and asks for a new device name. Enter a name but the device does not show up on the hubitat even after it pairs and no longer shows pending. A device does show up in the Z-wave details table however there is no name on the device therefore you cannot change the driver as some have suggested.
Under Edit SmartStart Device in the app I have tried setting boot mode to Long Range (which is automatically added) to S2 boot mode and it does not help. The default setting seems to be Security 2 Class 1 - Authenticated but even adding others there is no change.
This seems like a problem where the driver is not being detected correctly but with no device name you cannot make the change.

I never did get that working. I also couldnt get the new hubitat to interact with my older leviton zwave light switches correctly so i got annoyed and gave up and ordered the ring security hub instead, which works fine but costs monthly.
I think this is a bug where Hubitat doesn't get a name for the device therefore it gets lost. I was actually wrong in that it is pairing fine however without a name the device is not configurable.
I have both the Ring V2 Contact Sensor and the Ring V2 LR Contact Sensor. The LR did not have a name come through.
In the screenshot the 0x0007 device is the non-LR sensor.
The last one 0x0103 is the LR device notated by the yellow LR.
