Switch, dimmer & receptacle status LED (Jasco) assistance

Hello!

I tried searching for information about setting the status LED on these devices. As I'm sure everyone knows, the indicator can be set to disabled, OFF - when receptacle ON or OFF - when receptacle OFF. There doesn't seem to be an option (at least for the dimmers) in device settings. I know in SmartThings this could be configured through the app.

I plan to learn groovy coding, but in the interim in case I'm just missing something, can anyone confirm whether I need to write something to do this or if it's just somewhere I haven't located it?

Thanks!

Do you have the model number(s) (or the manual)? In Hubitat you can do this fairly easily if you know the z-wave parameter & value for that setting.

Here's how to do it.

Temporarily change the driver to Basic Z-Wave Tool. This is a Hubitat driver that is available from their GitHub (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hubitat/HubitatPublic/master/examples/drivers/basicZWaveTool.groovy).

Make the change you want, then revert back to the original driver. Be sure to hit "Configure" on the device page after changing the driver back to the original.

For the current-model Jasco/GE Z Wave Plus receptacle, LED control is built into the stock driver and works fine. I have 4 of these installed and use both the on-when-on and on-when-off modes.

Most importantly, are you using the new ZIGBEE receptacles, or the Zwave+ receptacles? The Jasco/GE 43102 Zigbee receptacle does NOT offer LED control through the Generic Zigbee Outlet driver.

Hey Guys,

Thanks for all the replies! I was sure that the motion dimmers also had a status indicator since they can also be activated manually. However, they don't appear to (except for some functions such as a factory reset). The receptacles and switches do have the option to configure, as mentioned. My apologies for jumping the gun. When I posted, I had not yet got to the receptacles. All is great now. As always, I appreciate the support of the community!
