I am a Wink survivor. I got my Hubitat today and saw it does not have device support for my Aeotec Heavy Duty smart switches I use to control my pool mechanicals. I found a driver and I installed it. It appears in my driver list. How to I use the driver to connect my Aeotec HD switches?

[image] Hammerton: Aeotec Heavy Duty smart switches I think those are supported by the "Aeotec Smart Switch" driver. In any event, when you add your device, it should pick the correct driver (either the Aeotec Smart Switch driver, or the community-provided driver you've installed). If it pai…

Thank you. I guess I was expecting that the driver would somehow load and show up in the devices list. So you are saying just get it paired in some way, and then employ the driver in the configuration option for the device. Excellent. Wish me luck.

Very Helpful. Thank you so much!

Thank you very much. I did indeed have a ghost device that I got rid of. Hope that helps some. I am working on getting my old fibaro zw5 multi sensors to work properly. Motion detects fine but temperature and lum do not. I get a temp and a lum for them when I pair them, but they are unresponsive. T…

[image] Hammerton: I am working on getting my old fibaro zw5 multi sensors to work properly. I had two of these. These sensors are problematic. I ended up replacing mine a few years ago with z-wave+ versions, which have been working really well to report motion, lux, and temperature.

Maybe I should just break down and get some new ones.

I moved to Hubitat from Wink in March of 2019. Besides the Fibaro sensors, I made several key changes over 6-8 months: Got rid of my Quirky contact sensors and GE/Quirky zigbee outlets. Replaced nine GE/Jasco z-wave switches/dimmers with z-wave+ equivalents from Zooz. Replaced GoControl z-wave mot…

What do I do with a driver?
