I’m trying to connect my zwave devices to my system and have been unsuccessful at connecting any of them. I am running HA on VM/virtual box and have successfully added my zwave controller (homeseer G8 smartstick). My challenges start when I attempt to pair my Homeseer HS-Wx100+ switches. So far I have tried following HS instructions on connecting, reset the switches to factory, and (as a last resort) I even deleted and started with a fresh copy of Home Assistant. I can connect them to my Homeseer machine and they operate as expected there. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated!
Tell us more about how you installed a Z-wave add-on and integration and confirmed the add-on is communicating with your controller. Details are important. Be verbose.
What documentation did you follow?
@mterry63 thank you for your reply and through many attempts, I finally was able to get some of the zwave switches connected to the system. I am still a rookie but do enjoy learning! My solution was to start clean with a new instance of HA (sure it was not needed), move to my older zwave controller (HS Smartstick+ G3) and went though the house factory resetting all the zwave switches then was able to add them without issue. My only challenges right now are with my GE Outdoor ZWave plug not connecting or resetting and the GE Z-Wave Smart Fan Control switch also not resetting to factory. I’ll keep researching and trying but do welcome any words of wisdom.
