Aeon labs micro switch Node error when switching from wall

Posted: Friday 27 March 2015 13:31

I hope someone can give me a hand on this. Please, please.

I'm using an Aeon Labs Zwave-Stick and an A.L Micro-switch to control outside lights (gen 1 I guess). Pairing and detecting it's all ok, and I can control the switch from domoticz without issue.
But as soon as I switch from the wall switch, things go bad. First, Domoticz does not detect the change in state. Sometimes, after a big while, it detects.
But always after a while the node is marked as dead.
Can someone give me a hand? I just bought this unit for testing before buying house wide sets, but I'm stuck on this problem several months ago without arriving to a solution.

The switch has to have polling marked?
What's the recommended polling interval in the stick configuration (only have one switch)?
It's necessary or the switch should send it's state immediately?

Also I can't add the microswitch without opening the wall switch and pushing the micro-switch button. So I always have to take the Zstick with me and dismantle the wall switch. Is it normal?
If so, Would be a nightmare to do it @ the house.

Thanks in advance.

This mid-day at home, I've made the following:

First I've tried to re-add the switch from software, by turning the wall switch, but it didn't appear in the program:
That's the log:

2015-03-27 15:14:00.950  Hardware Monitor: Fetching data (System sensors)

I removed the zwave stick. And opened the switch box.
Unpaired the switch using it's button.
Then unpaired again.
unpaired another time.
Then paired it again.

Then I went to domoticz and re-configured the stick (that lost the usb port).
Switch appeared in stick configuration so entered the name.
Then in devices there where two switches showing !???
So I started adding one and it appeared as dead in switches tab. So I deleted it and also disappeared from devices list.
I went for the other and was the good one.
I tried to switch from the software -> all good.
Switched from wall -> lights up but no response from domoticz.
Switched off then on from wall -> domoticz detected on.
Continued but no response from domoticz.

That's the log for the maneuver:

The switch still appears as valid.
It happens that if I enter the zwave panel and pust refresh value at the switch it gets the correct value and then domoticz has it when i come back. Sometimes only entering the panel syncs it.
The panel it's not functional to me. I can push, go come, change that doesn't do anything.

I also started with only one switch and nearly gave up since it did not work well. When I added three more switches the network started to act as it should... I can't say that yours will as well but get at least a second switch before you give up. I'm using the zwave stick as secondary controller and it works fine...

Still failing. I've tried HomeGenie and got a very similar issue. Could it be something stored in the Aeon Labs Stick so it survives the several re-installations I've done and now a completely new program?

What i see is an inclusion that is started when you use the switch.
What kind of switch do you use?
What does the manual say about inclusing of the zwave node?
Is the parameter for the switch correct on the node?

The moment you hit the switch there is an inclusion started thus nothing happens (what you except to happen)

WOW! I didn't notice this reply until now. The forum didn't send me an alert.

The micro switch is:
Aotec Micro Switch G2
model: DSC26103-ZWEU

This is not an energy metering switch.

It worked flawlessly when I first installed Domoticz, but at some point I did a fresh install and started to fail. Could be something changed in MF. configurations?

The manual states that it can be paired from a small button it has, and through switching the wall switch when wired in a certain way.
I never managed to pair it using the wall switch so I always used the small button.

What is this "parameter" in the node?

Domoticz updated to the latest version, but the problem still occurs.

The behaviour is the following:
After a full system restart.
Trough Domoticz I can switch on and off the light.
The schedule (it's the porch light) works as expected.
Then one of this:
1- If you switch using the wall switch, seems only switching off, domoticz looses the light state.
after that, if I try to set it trough DZ, the node is marked dead after two or three attempts.
2- Somehow, when switching trough DZ, the node becomes unresponsive (when switching off) and is marked dead.

Full system restart, makes the switch alive again.

Sorry for reviving this thread, but I have the same problem with an AEON micro switch (2nd edition/DSC26103).

Did you solve the problem?

I figured out that everything works fine when the micro switch is near the controller. But as soon as it is more far and it misses a switch command it gets problematic and soon it is dead. I think if that happens the controller (AEON Z-Stick Gen5) does not send out any new commands.

My domoticz is nearly up2date. The topology shows it has a connection to another switch just 5m away (ok, through 2 walls...).

off topic/warning: this device has a capacitor at the 230V side - do not touch the input pins after removal. Also this device does not easily fit into a regular flush mounted box.

Nope. I completely ditched the zwave system. Now I use mysensors (completely different band). As my rfxtrx also was failing, I replaced it with a rflink. But still works erratically.

I think those systems are made and tested in a perfect environment, a very small flat or a gorgeous house by the sea. So there are few interferences and/or the emitter it's nearby.
