Rebuild openzwave and domoticz ...

Thank mister gizmocuz !!!!

Current BETA domoticz with 1.4-2501-g5af6780-dirty SUPPORTS WallMote:

#1 Upgrade (I'm using a dev platform for that on Orange Pi Zero with stable Armbian (Ubuntu based)
#2 Remove WallMote
#3 Include WallMote again (I'm using secure mode)
#4 Go to scenes add and click the button it will be added as activator.

Thought I would add to this thread in case anyone is reading it prior to purchasing one of these devices. Decided to get one as the Aeotec Wallmotes were out of stock at my usually ZWave supplier and they are also 2/3 the cost ($65 vs $99) with twice the number of scene activator buttons. While not quite as stylish as a Wallmote they are decent, slimline and have a neat wallbracket. Microswitch buttons also have a reasonable feel.

Install was with Domoticz on Windows latest Beta as of 20-7-2017 and an Aeotech stick. Take the stick out of the PC, press the button once on the stick to put it into join mode then put batteries in the Remotec and press the L button hidden in the battery compartment once. Let it flash its light a bunch of times and after 20 seconds or so it was all ready to go and plugged the stick back into my Domoticz host. now the device appear as unknown in my hardware listing and with the little moon crescent. I then pressed the W button (wake up) in the same location as the L button. after a few seconds it then recognised the Remotec within Domoticz and there were 8 buttons available in Devices. These could then be added as switches and set as activators for Scenes. Hopefully this helps someone

My one question now for those that have one of these Remotec devices or a Wallmote infact, is that I assume that due to the limitations of OpenZWave (as these are only a recent addition) you just get the standard 8 buttons (or 4 buttons in the case of Wallmote). What I mean by that is that the Remotec manual lists some secondary functionality being that you can double press the button within 1 second and it can "disable or reverse the scene". Not sure if I have the terminology correct. I did some testing and in the Log section of the switch it displays when the device was pressed. A single button press or a double button press produces the same entry in the log "on". I would assumed for there to be the secondary functionality that log would have to show an "off" for a double button press?

Thoughts?

I recently installed the ZRC-90 and can confirm what you see. For now nothing more than 8 'switches' that only send 'on'
The extra functionality is in there, you can see that in the zwave panel. Think it is not supported yet.

Anyhow for now , happy with the switch functionality , placed a sticker over the buttons to use icons instead of numbers..

Thanks to your post I found my buttons in domoticz but there always on just the last seen that's updated. Is it the same for you?

Really nice sticker, did you just print that on label paper?

How did you solve the problem with always on switch? I can't get it do trigger on button press because the switch is always on never OFF

Nope, it is a professional sticker. http://plakfoto.nl/index.php?option=info
Here you can upload your design, choose formats and order a single sheet instead of pile of stickers.

I set the switch type to 'Push On Button'
This seems always to trigger a event change, so from there you can make a script or blocky to do some action. Or add a virtual switch / variable to make a toggle function with one botton (on/off)

Verify intresting, I tried to set is as a Push ON button but the status is always reported as on so the blocky always triggers because the Button = On

same here, I used it with homey before and worked fine, but recently changed over to domoticz and can see the 8 switches, but whatever I set them to (push on or off button, switch, contact, motion detector) state is always on, so I can't seem to switch anything with it.
If you got it to work I'd love to know how

The patch works for me two.
The switches can be used to trigger scenes in Domoticz directly as well.

The only missing feature now is the "button hold" recognizion.
Button hold gets recognized as "pressed 1 time".

Ok, I might have not made clear that I do not know HOW....
I understand the part about installing the patch, but after that it says rebuild domoticz and zwave...I have no idea how to do that...maybe it's easy for you, but I have all the rest working now and don't want to F**k up my installation

Got it. You need to have a Domoticz installation where OpenZwave and Domoticz has been compiled on your computer/Raspberry.
There is a guide for it: https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Raspberry ... rom_source

Thanks, I already have tried that one a couple of times and did not get it to work, but I'll make a backup of my pi and will give it another try

Sorry for bumping an old topic, but I'm having problems including the scene master into domoticz.

I pressed the L button on the back and then I included the device (include node secure) in Domoticz. This worked, I can see the device in my hardware list but not in the devices list. No devices are created.

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? I've been wokring on it for several hours no, without luck. Do I need to config the device to act as a secondary controller first (before adding)? And how do I do this?

Hope someone can help me out!

If you have patched OpenZwave and compiled before adding, the corresponding switches will be added to Domoticz when you press each key (you need to allow new devices)

What do you mean with "you need to allow new devices"? Is that an option?
