I’m running Home Assistant version 0.113.3 with a Aeotec Z-Wave USB stick.
When I add an Aeotec Indoor Siren 6 (ZW164) duplicates keep popping up.
Right after adding the device I have 1 device showing up, then if I refresh a minute later it looks like this:
Is this a known issue? Anything I can do about it?

That would be normal and expected. The siren 6 is a multi-channel device with 8 endpoints and a root instance, for a total of 9 devices. HA creates an individual device for each endpoint. Read the tech doc for how you might use the endpoints.

Is this also to be expected? If yes, I’ll just go ahead and read the tech doc and try to wrap my head around what all these entities are for.
