Since switching from Wink recently I've been really happy with Hubitat. The stability is such a relief. Everything turns on and off just as I would hope. However, as I look to fine tune things a bit I'm noticing something. That is, for some of my switches, if I turn one on at the switch, my dash…

You're not giving us quite enough information... Zigbee devices or ZWave? Vintage is another factor. Years ago there was a patent, owned by Lutron, that was 'feared' by many manufacturers. It covered the flow of status FROM a device back to the controller. It was a specific patent, but a lot of man…

Very sorry. These are all Zwave switches. I do have Lutron, but none are connected to the Hubitat so no concerns there. I suspect you are exactly right, probably the ones that are working are Zwave plus, but the ones that aren't are just Zwave. I guess I need to see if I can turn on POLLING on t…

[image] JPW: see if I can turn on POLLING on the DEVICE itself....right? There's a Polling App. Got to Apps in the left menu, click Add BuiltIn App and 2nd from the bottom is ZWave Poller You'll then have an app that allows you to pick which devices are polled. But remember, you won't find e…

Also be aware that it's been years since those ZWave devices were built. The clear advantage of modern ZWave Plus devices is well known. We understand around here the forces that want to continue to use those expensive devices, but you will find, like so many of us here, that it's not worth it. Star…

[image] csteele: Also be aware that it's been years since those ZWave devices were built. @JPW - I want to expand on two points made by @csteele 100-series Z-wave devices date back to 1999. 300-series Z-wave devices date back to 2003. So your z-wave devices are ~20 year old technology. In W…

Thanks for all the input here. I was able to install the Zwave poller and the main light in question was reflected there. I enabled polling, but the issue persists. I then checked to see how old this switch might be. It is a GE / Jasco version and I bought in December of 2014. So old, but maybe…

[image] JPW: GE / Jasco version and I bought in December of 2014. That is unfortunately a Z-Wave switch. Even though Z-Wave+ (500-series) chips became available in 2013, Jasco still sold old stock on Amazon and elsewhere, which is understandable, but still kind of shitty. Several other vendor…

[image] csteele: Eventually the people will quit touching the switch :smiley: On every 10-20 mins is FAR lower impact on the hub than polling every minute. Yea, I see your point. It is actually worse because my family really doesn't do much with this light. It is just something I noticed th…

Hopefully this helps.. [image] Are you new to home automation or Hubitat or coming from a different platform such as SmartThings, Vera, or Wink? This may help! 🎬 Get Started Just throwing this out there. It may or may not be a help and I'm sure many others will contribute…
