help updating manufacturer_specific.xml

Post by cwrug »

I am having trouble adding a device to manufacturer_specific.xml and I need some help.

I would like to add support for my Fibaro FGS-222 switch which is not yet supported in OZW. I have found posts om this forum and I have read the OZW instructions how to add devices but it still does not work for me :(

I added this line under <Manufacturer id="010f" name="FIBARO System"> :
<Product type="0202" id="1002" name="FGS222 Double Relay Switch 2x1.5kW" config="fibaro/fgs221.xml" />

The type and ID I got from the node list in Domoticz which says: FIBARO System Unknown: type=0202, id=1002.

I remove the config file (zwcfg_0x0184e6a9.xml) and I restart my raspberry pi. When it is back up it has created a new zwcfg file which looks exactly like the old one and my switch still shows up as Unknown.

What am I doing wrong? :(

Got it to work by excluding/reseting the device and then re-adding it to the controller.

This patch is now included (maybe for a long time), but just writing here for refference

The only way it worked for me was : excluding and including the node FROM Domoticz "Node Management" menu (and NOT using the AEON Z-Wave Z-Stick button, if you have this device)
Deleting zwcfg_*.xml has never worked for me.
