Best external Z-Wave hub - best device support?

This is not the correct way to pair devices to an Aeotec stick with Home Assistant and it will cause problems. Please follow the instructions here: Z-Wave - Home Assistant

Do note the big warning in the yellow box telling you not do what you are describing:

Don’t use the OpenZWave control panel (OZWCP), or the physical button on a controller , to add or remove devices. Many devices will only send the information about their capabilities at the time you include them. If you use the OpenZWave control panel, or the button on a device, then Home Assistant won’t have that information. Using the physical button on a controller will also result in a non-security inclusion being performed, which may limit the features the device supports.
