Forest Shuttle ZWave curtain rail

Post by hvanschaick »

I have installed a forest Shuttle ZWave Drapery Rail and I have associated it successfully with my Raspberry PI with a Razberry ZWave controller.
However, OpenZWave does not fully recognize the Rail.

Using the OPenZWave control Panel I can control the curtain:

Open/close, percentage open and two push buttons to move in either open or close direction (the curtain moves while this values is true).

This functionality is enough for my use., however, Domoticsz does not see anything... The functionality OpenZWave sees is not propagated to the Devices screen of Domotics...

I am using Domoticz V2.4513...

See the attached picture of the functionality OpenZWave sees...

Any input is appreciated.

I got it somewhat working by adding the following to manufacturer_specific.xml:

<Manufacturer id="0207" name="Forest Group Nederland B.V.">
<Product type="0027" id="0100" name="Shuttle L Z-Wave" config="forest/fs2z5232000002.xml"/>
</Manufacturer>

creating a subdirectory "forest" in Config with a file called fs2z5232000002.xml (chose the name myself based on the forest product number)
The file is attached. It is not correct because the OpenZwave panel doesn't like it any more, BUT Domoticsz now shows a level Device with toggle open en closed as a switch and with a dimmer level that translates to 0% for fully closed and 100% for fully open.

It works for the time being. Now I need to understand the config files better.

By the way, I grabbed most of contents of the xml file from the zwcfg_0xf9f31817.xml file that is created by OZW after it add the device to the ZWAVE network.

After removing the device from the network and adding it again the device was recognized...

Any improvements appreciated..

PS: got some of the data from http://www.pepper1.net/zwavedb/device/676

We ordered a Forest curtain rail so I'm interested in the support in Domoticz. Did you submit your file to the openzwave group?
