Domoticz

Hi,

I have a bunch of Neo Coolcam PIR sensors that I added to Domoticz. Recently they somehow stopped working with my script. I noticed the reaction time was very long. Tried to ignore it, maybe an update of Domoticz would fix it magically, but that didn't happen. Today I looked into it to find the PIR sensors have no configuration items in my Razberry setup anymore and their ID and Type all seem to be nullified somehow.

I excluded all of them one by one and included them again. To find they all work again. ID and Type get recognized properly. Happy Splinter.
Until I rebooted the device.. now I'm back to square one.

Here is a screencap of the current situation with the nullified ID & Type: Has anyone experienced this before? please advise!

Thanks
Splinter

Edit: I switched back to stable, excluded and re-included all my PIR sensors (again..) Everything works fow now. I'm hesitant to restart. So when I will (because I have to) I'll post an update.

Hi,

I have faced exactly the same problem. Seems to be related to ZWave 1.6 (Have a look to the other open topics).
I made a restore of my complete SD Card, went therefore back to ZW 1.4 and now evething is working well again.

I revert back to 4.10717 everything is working again on this build.

This is not a fix to the problem loosing your devices, but it does often get your device back in action without having to re-do all of your configuration: Next time, do not exclude the device before including it again. Simply start the inclusion process in Domoticz as you would include a new device, then put the old device in inclusion mode (depends on the device make/type, for example press the button 3 times). The device will be re-included with the exact same z-wave id it had before and your devices will come back to live. You may have to start the inclusion process in your device twice (as it may interpret the 1st time as an exclusion). Keep an eye on the domoticz log window to see if the inclusion starts. You have to be patient, as the inclusion can take up to like 30 seconds before it actually shows in the log.

Plus, after the device is re-included you have to retrieve the device's z'wave configuration to get the correct options shown. And you may have to re-set them.
