AEOTEC Door / Window Sensor 6 (model ZW112) Topic is solved

[urbaxe]

Hi!
Has anyone got AEOTEC Door/Window Sensor 6 http://aeotec.com/z-wave-gateways#DoorWindowSensor6 (model ZW112) to work with Domoticz on a Raspberry PI and a Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5.
I see that the sensor is not listed on the compatibility list http://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Hardware#A_2
But it is included in manufacturer_specific.xml

Code: Select all

<Product type="0002" id="0070" name="Door Window Sensor 6" config="aeotec/zw112_doorwindow6.xml" />

It is possible to include the node and it generates three devices.
The two magnets to control the on/off has no impact on any of the switches.
The switch (Door Sensor) is allways On
Therefore, it does not work.

The Gen5 door sensor is supported, had not seen the new generation one.

Is it possible you can debug openzwave, and post the log here when you open/close the door.
To do so, goto the openzwave hardware setup, and enable 'debug mode'
Now when the hardware is started, open/close the door (a few times)
The log is placed in the 'Config' folder, and named 'OZW_Log.txt'
This log can become quite large
Once you copied the log to your local disk, please disable the logging again

Also send you a PM

I publish the log OZW_Log.txt here at the forum, as it does not contain any sensitive data.
I did a toggle as you can see att the end of logfile.
The sensor is refering to Node009

Could you check a few things:

- Node 1 (the controller) is in the 'Live Line' of this node ? (most times group 1)
- Could you play with parameter 121 (set it to 'Sensor Binary Report or Basic+Report)
(you have to wake your device before you press the apply configuration button

[urbaxe]

Here is the log with sensor parameter Basic Set and Sensor Binary Report

Does not work either?

[gizmocuz]

Do you have 'accept new hardware' enabled in the settings, you might get a new device
Else... i hope to order one in a week, but maybe someone else has an idea...

[urbaxe]

Yes i have 'accept new hardware' enabled in the settings, but no luck geting a new device.
I did it once again.
The question is, should I return the sensors to my supplier, or should I wait for a solution.
It should not be impossible, or ...?

It is probably going to work when i get my hands on it....
Or for now you have to debug the code

(Node1 is added to group 1 of the sensor ? did not see a confirmation there...)

[urbaxe]

Not what I am aware of
This loglines occures in the Domotics log Window when doing a include node.

I think I'll wait until you looked at the device.
They're very discreet and smooth and I want them to be functional.
It's worth waiting for, notify as soon as you have something going on.

[gizmocuz]

It works correct.
Standard this node sends a basic-report, you need to change this to a binary report as mentioned above.

Go to the openzwave hardware setup, select the door sensor from the node table

Now change parameter 121 to 'Sensor Binary Report'

Scroll down to the button 'Apply configuration for this device', but do NOT press it yet

Wake-up your sensor by pressing on the button, the light will be green, then press the apply button

Yes, I can now confirm that it works with Sensor parameter 121 set to 'Sensor Binary Report'.
My device "Door Sensor" will now go Off/On when the magnets are away and near the switch.

Thanks gizmocuz, in your interest for helping me.

Thanks for the feedback, as said, this was suggested in my second answer..

I was a little disappointed that the two reed sensors on board not gave individual status. That would be great for a tilt and turn window.

I also got my Aeon Labs ZW112 door/window sensor 6 working, but have issues showing the battery level.

First the battery level was available, but after a couple of days it didn't show anymore.
I tried setting a wake up time, enabling low battery setting, even tried polling data, but Domoticz doesn't show the battery level of the door sensor anymore.

I'm running the latest stable release of Domoticz (3.5877).
Any idea how to get the battery reports back in Domoticz?

[leoncornelissen]

I still have problems with changing this value in Domoticz. When I follow the steps, no matter what I try, as soon as I press apply settings, the gen stick or my domoticz installation crashes.
What can I do to add it correctly?

Update, I first did an update and a reboot from putty. Now the update does not result in a crash but the value is not updated.
Attached my OZW_log. can someone help me in the right direction?

Update 2, I now see I have a ZW089 sensor. does that change the way of working?

I'm having this same problem with these sensors. None of my sensors are showing battery level info. Any ideas on how to recover it?

[arjanm83]

I've had a discussion by email with Aeotec about these door window sensors.
It turns out that these modules do not send battery information when waking up (when a door is opened or closed).
Also, setting wake up times does not help, because the module will still not send the battery information.
Even polling did not work for me.

Aeotec confirms this and said to be working on a firmware update. However, this could take a long time, according to them.

If you're looking for a door window sensor that will provide its battery status, then do not buy this one.

[arjanm83]

Update: I discovered this module DOES send out a battery message.
But only when the low battery level is reached and when this low battery message is enabled.

This is the message I saw in one of the Aeotec Z-Stick Gen 5 firmware upgrade tools:
08:33:31.826: Received: 008 - COMMAND_CLASS_BATTERY.BATTERY_REPORT, data: FF

What do I have to do to have this message picked up by Domoticz?
Added this question to the bug forum as well.

[mjdb]

I have four Aeotec ZW112 Door Window Sensor 6 sensors. I use Domoticz to control them.

After installing and having them work stable, I went to settings --> Hardware --> Open Z-wave --> Settings.
Select the ZW112 sensor.
Change Param 01. Low Battery Check: to "Enabled";
Change Param 121. Report Type to Send: to "Basic Set and Sensor Binary Report".
Click the Apply button.
Go to the physical sensor and press the action button for three seconds. The led should be "purple".
To be sure, I clicked the Apply button again.

Repeat this for all sensors .

Now in devices the battery-level is displayed as 100% (I charged them two days ago).

I am interested to see how this develops...
