I was wondering if somebody could help me out. I am new to Home Assistant. I recently installed an Aeotec illumino switch. I could join the switch via Z wave two home assistant with no problem. The issue is that it doesn’t seem to be any entities for the on and off functions. The only entities available are ping and node status. The device reads “Device Ready: No” in the Z-Wave info. This doesn’t seem right to me? Am I missing something here? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
I think I have answered my own question. Found this just after posting.
Connecting illumino Switch to Home Assistant requires a working installation of that software with Z-Wave management being handled by Aeotec’s Z-Stick platform. Once connected to Z-Stick and Home Assistant with Z-WaveJS to MQTT, illumino Switch will offer the following features for either product:
I assume this means that I will need Aeotec’s Z-Wave stick to make this work?
