Timeout in log for my zwave devices

Hello

Since few weeks I have a trouble with zwave : I get a lot of timeout in the log and my devices are not responding. I need to restart the system every few hours

I tried (without succes)
- upgrade to the latest beta domoticz
- change from 15sec to 120sec the polling interval
- change from 10000ms to 600000ms the timeout detection
- desactivate the query for all my battery devices

Still the error in log

My system : Pi2 / UZB zwave key / 10 battery devices (smoke/flood/motion) / 4 powered devices (shutter/universal/rgbw)

Any help welcome :)

Thank you
Multinet

Hello,

My config is RPI3B+, Os:Buster, Domoticz:2021.1 (build 13330) , OpenZWave USB Version: 1.6-1919-g11270361
Zwave Controller : ZW090-Controller
Zwave Network : 20 devices AC powered and battery powered
Polling Interval = 5400 sec
Interrogation desactivated for all the devices.
Zwave Network is operating smoothly.
Zwave Hardware ID:4

To control the ZWave Network I have created for each Zwave device a corresponding Status Device in Dummy Hardware which value is "On" if Zwave device is ready, "Off" if not.
To identify dead nodes or non responding one I run periodically a python script reading the Zwave status from http://192.168.0.xx:8080/json.htm?type= ... odes&idx=4. It then checks the node status for AC powered devices and the LastUpdateTime info.
If the LastUpdateTime is too much in the past (172800 sec for Battery Powered devices, 40 sec for FGWP) the script set the corresponding status to "Off" else it is set to "On"

Hope it helps.
BR

For scripting examples for dead nodes see viewtopic.php?t=15488

For timedout Sensors you can also set a notification directly in Domoticz without scripts: viewtopic.php?t=36473
So for example Last Update > 1440 minutes ( = 24 hrs) send notification.

Hello

I put 'assume awake' to flase, it seems to fix my problem

Do you confirm that my timeout can be generated by this parameter set to true ?

Thank you
Multinet

Hello,

In my ZW090-Controller configuration I have Assume Awake=True which is the default configuration.

Best regards

Same issue there, I heard this is OZW related and zwave2mqtt should be used in place of ozw,vbut I'm looking for a tutorial to proceed to migration.
