[Solved] Z-Wave Failed - DEAD

This would be one of the most troublesome devices to have securely, they generate an insane amount of traffic when joined secured. I was having some issues I could not understand like devices hanging, etc. and after some advice from @mike.maxwell I finally joined it non-secure and suddenly those issues stopped, I was not even troubleshooting that as some of the devices having trouble are on the complete opposite side of the house... I also made the refresh rates longer to help lower the unnecessary traffic...

Hubitat does not support CRC-16 Encapsulation and apparently it may be possible to have a Z-Wave parameter set on that device by default to enable such encapsulation causing trouble so check that:

Also, check the firmware on your device, I currently have 1.31 and some people have 1.35. I contacted Aeon Support as my readings are not very accurate and they sent me the 1.35 firmware which requires you to remove and rejoin as per their instructions so this would be the perfect moment to do it... I asked them if it was OK to share it here and they say yes. Two things stopped me from sharing it: They did not give me any kind of changelog even though I specifically asked and I have not had time to test it myself...

I'll post it on that thread later today when I get home in case you want to upgrade yours...
