Fibaro FGS-223 not responding to on/off commands

Post by virtualfreak »

Running Domoticz 4.9700 on Synology NAS (DS216play DSM 6.2) using Aeotech Z-Stick Gen 5 controller

My FGS-223 appears to be communicating with the controller for some things, like, Domoticz shows it reporting kWh data usage, correctly displaying the on/off state of the light (when manually toggled) but the switch will not respond to on/off z-wave commands sent from the controller software. I have tried changing the switch type settings from toggle to momentary with no success.

I'm new to Domoticz and z-wave (begingin my upgrade from an X10 system). So I was wondering if anyone is experienced in troubleshooting this type of glitch and had any suggestions before I conclude either software incompatibility or HW failure

Thank you

Have you tried rebooting your domoticz (setup, more options, restart system)? I have 2 FGS-223's that I added at a different time, and each time had to restart domoticz to make it work.

Thank you for the suggestion. I tried rebooting my synology NAS and rebooting domoticz and still the same issue. Something I noticed but may not be related is when I physically toggle S1 to the "ON" position the FGS-223 kWh meter displays a value until I try and logically turn it off in domoticz then it goes to 0 and stays no matter how many times I logically toggle it again but as soon as I physically toggle S1 off then back on a value returns. So the FGS-223 is definitely communicating to the controller just not responding to the logical toggle command. I'm going to try and remove it from the controller and re-add it.

Update: I deleted the FGS-223 and performed an inclusion again. Still same issue. I checked the chord graph and noticed that the FGS-223 doesn't show a direct chord to the controller only chords to all the other nodes. Whereas the other nodes all show a direct chord to the controller but its obviously communicating because I was able to add nodes to S2 on/off group of the FGS-223 and manually toggling it now controls other devices. So, it's definitely communicating on the z-wave network. It's almost like the on/off command that is being sent via z-wave is the wrong format or value and just not being reconginzed but I'm not sure how to know what value it's sending and what value it should be.

I noticed in the log that the Fibaro shows a level:255 (like its a dimmer) whereas another on/off switch I have doesn't have that value. Is it possible that is the reason my Fibaro isn't working because a dimmer command is being sent and the Fibaro doesn't respond to those type commands?

Hi.
Not sure if it helps but I have in mind that you have to configure the FGS first via the device hardware profile.

I am not at home and cannot check, but I think I remember that you can control the S1 and S2 behavior and many other things in that configuration.
Go to „Hardware“>choose your zwave device > setup and you see all your physical devices in a list. Choose the FGS and then you see the actual device configuration with lots of options under the device table.
There you can configure the behavior.

Hope that helps.

Regards.

I looked through those commandclass settings but none seem to apply. I did learn something new, though. The light does turn on/off when I submit a command through the control panel.

Domoticz logs that command differently It logs (Aeotech Z-Stick) Light/Switch (Switch)
Whereas when I press the dashboard widget
Capture1.PNG
Capture1.PNG (7.68 KiB) Viewed 6115 times
appears to send the wrong command and logs it as OpenZWave: Domoticz has send a Swtich command!, Level:255 ...
The attachment Capture.PNG is no longer available
So, Domoticz is definately doing somethg different and sending an incorrect command. I'm not sure how to fix it. I looked at the fibaro/fgs223.xml and the begining of the file has:

<!--COMMAND_CLASS_SWITCH_MULTILEVEL. This class is in the list reported by the device, but it does not respond to requests -->
<CommandClass id="38" getsupported="false"/>

I tried changing the CommandClass to "37" - binary switch then excluding and including the fgs223 again. It didn't seem to affect anything. But I'm still figuring this stuff out - like how Domoticz decides when to send dimmer command vice on/off command so I don't know what to do next.

Update: I installed HomeSeer and the Fibaro FGS223 was responding to virtual switch on/off commands. So, it's definitely an issue with Domoticz. :(

Hi,
I originally started out with Windows box, but due to this problem I moved to Linux. It is working fine now but after every update, system crash or whatever restart I have to check if my FGS223's are responding. If not I stop and start Domoticz and check again. Occaisonally I have to do this 2 or 3 times but after that it is OK. It is not ideal obviously but the best for now.

Hi,

Same issue as "virtualfreak" but with Fibaro wall plugs.
Strange thing is that i have 3 of them and only 1 is having issue since the upgrade to v4.9700 (everything was OK with previous stable release).

Zwave configuration :
Image

Another strange thing is that parameters are different from the Zwave Control Panel for the 3 devices...

That wall plug is working correctly :
Image

That wall plug is working correctly too :
Image

That one is not responding on/off commands :
Image

As "virtualfreak", i'm able to get power usage from the wall plug with the "bad" device and i'm also able to set "on/off" command to that device from the Control Panel...

If someone has a clue, i'd be glad cause i'd to keep my power usage history (whatever i already saw that exclude node/include node again didn't work for virtualfreak...)

Domoticz logs : i used to get some timeout from zwave devices (now and before without affecting Domoticz) :

@Damsee, can you post a screenshot of the devices view where in the search box you have entered WP- (if your light/switch has those in the names), else i would like to see the switches there
Also a screenshot of the zwave->groups/networks view for those switches

@Gizmocuz ; please find the requested screenshots.

Showing only the wall plugs devices (WP* as you mentioned ^^) / all 3 devices are configured with same ID=0x1001 and same Type=0x6002 :

Image

ZWave groups and network :

Image

The 3 wall plugs seems to be in the same group configuration and the controler (id=1) can contact the 3 WP.

Hope that helps :)

Hi,

Finally got some time this WE to look further the issue with the Fibaro wall-plug.
I finally decided to excluse it from my zwave network and lose the history.
1. Excluse => OK
2. Include in secure mode => OK (but strange since it kept the same ID in Domoticz aka 26)
3. Test On/Off => Failed as Domoticz log is telling that Openzwave can't find my device ID = 26
4. Excluse again => OK
5. Restart Pi3 with Domoticz
6. Reset Fibaro wall-plug
7. Include in secure mode again => OK with new ID
8. Test On/Off => OK

I lost the history but the issue is now solved for me and the wall-plug works like a charm :)

Goodmorning everyone,
I have the same problem as Virtualfreak on switch 1, switch 2 works correctly. I tried to exclude and include the releays several times but without getting positive results.
I too have the version of Domoticz 49700.
More suggestions?

Had the same problem. Just installed Fibaro Switch and connected lamps to Q1. Included Switch into Zwave network. Toggling switch 1 had no effect, toggling switch 2 seemed to work because I could hear the relay. Using the Control Panel I could successfully toggle switch 1. Restarting Pi solved the issue.

Hi,

I have the same issue, switch 1 not responding, but 2 working fine and rebooting doesn't work.
Did anyone solve it?

Are we talking about the wallplug or the double relay 2x1500w because I have the last one, a 2x1500w and that one is working fine. I see the Id and type are different. Mine has Id=1000 type=0x0203.
I think you have a fgs222 instead of a fgs223 which is the double relay and not the wall plug

I also have one dbl switch fgs-233 with only one button working. I have tried reboot and exclude/include the device. It works when I press the physical buttons but not in domoticz.

any update on this?
i have some FIBARO System FGS213 Switch+
and the status of the lamp is changing in Domoticz when i activate/deactivate the switch by hand, but when i'm sending commands through Domoticz, the lamp (hardware) is not turning on/off

switching from within the control panel works

I have the same issue with Qubino Wall Plug ZMNHYD1 Smart Plug 16A+, it can be switched from ozwcpl but not from Domoticz.
