Z-Wave.me dimmer ZME_05458 - proper definition in config files
Posted: Friday 01 April 2016 9:04
Hello everybody! This is my first post, so, please, don't judge it too strong:)
I am trying to create a config xml file for Z-Wave.me dimmer 05458, since it is not recognized properly in my install of Domoticz (linux, stable).
I started with manufacturer_specific.xml and added this line to <Manufacturer id="0064" name="Popp / Duwi"> section:
I created ZME05458.xml file in /Config/duwi. Since it is work in progress, I am not uploading it here.
I started with /popp/123580.xml as a template. As a result I have a few successes and some problems.
On the bright side is:
1. Commands with list type value are working:
I can change LED behavior, I can control second ON command behavior.
On the dark side is:
1. Commands with integer type value are NOT working. Example is:
I tried short, int, byte, even string data types - no success.
2. The dimmer is still recognized as 3 devices:
- Light/Switch Level - this is working perfect
- and Usage/Electric Power Meter and Unknown which I cannot either utilize or get rid of.
Of course, I can simply ignore them in the device list, but may be there is some possible way to use them?
3. And, since I am 1 week old user of Domoticz/OpenZWave, I have a nube question - config files exist both in /Domoticz and /openzwave directories - why??
Your kind input will be greatly appreciated:)
