Problem with group (z-wave)

Post by Draakje »

Hi all,

I have a small problem.

I have a few z-wave devices (all Neo coolcams. 10x) these wall plug are installed all around the house.
When I look at the Mesh network it all seems ok.

I created a group of two (two lights on ground floor) and setup timers for turning on and off.
Now my problem,

When the group is turned on (by timer or manually) most of the time only one switch is turned on.
When I look in domoticz the switch is reported as ON. But when I look at the OZWCP I see the switch turned off.
When I click in domoticz on the switch, turn off and turn on. The light turns on.

So what is going on here? Did I not create the group correctly?
The switch status should be communicated to domoticz right ?

if more information is needed please let me know.
(know my way around linux not so much within domoticz)

Is it always the same device that does not turn on/off? Does the problem also occur if you create another group and put only the "faulty" device in there, then switch that group?

So I have setup the second switch in a seperated group

It seems to work better.

So the question remains.. Why does the group not work for both switches?

I have similar problem.
using coolcam wall switches, and configured 2 of them in a single group
i have created vise-versa groups for both, as one turned on, it should signal the other..
none seems to work..

Could you please start a thread of your own? You are talking about z-wave associating 2 devices to each other. This thread is about a domoticz group having 2 switches in it and one of the switches is not always following the group's commands.
