Event support for Scene Controllers

It’s hard to say exactly without knowing the full contents of your zwcfg file (Mine is almost 3000 lines long), but in the context of your file it should be located somewhere along the lines of this:

<Node id="58" name="Scene Contrl".... blah blah
  <Manufacturer>
    blah blah
  </Manufacturer
  <CommandClasses>
    <CommandClass id="32".....>
      blah blah
    </CommandClass>
    <CommandClass id="33".....>
      blah blah
    </CommandClass>
    <CommandClass id="34".....>
      blah blah
    </CommandClass>
    <CommandClass id="43".....>
      blah blah
    </CommandClass>
    <CommandClass id="91".....>
      THIS IS THE ONE YOU ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT, YOUR STUFF GOES HERE
    </CommandClass>
    <CommandClass id="112".....>
      blah blah
    </CommandClass>
    <CommandClass id="113".....>
      blah blah
    </CommandClass>
    <CommandClass id="114".....>
      blah blah
    </CommandClass>
    <CommandClass id="119".....>
      blah blah
    </CommandClass>
    <CommandClass id="133".....>
      blah blah
    </CommandClass>
    <CommandClass id="134".....>
      blah blah
    </CommandClass>
    <CommandClass id="135".....>
      blah blah
    </CommandClass>
  </CommandClasses>
</Node>

You may or may not have other Nodes listed in your file (if you do or do not have other Z-Wave devices. Make sure you’re making the changes within the correct Node!

Also, I feel like I was doing full restarts of Hassio after making changes to zwcfg, because it felt like it wasn’t loading things properly. It was probably overkill. Seems like you’re editing the right file. Everything after zwcfg is some generated identifer.

Okay, I believe I did what you said above. I will verify. About the only thing I see now is there are a few returns or line spaces between the new entries I added. I will remove and restart HA. I really appreciate you helping me!

Ugg! I opened the zwcfg after restart HA and the text I added was gone again, even after I stopped the zwave. Hmm… Stopped HA by running

 hassio ha stop

made change and restarting

Got the Zwcfg to stay updated. I’m still not seeing entries in the zwave log when I press a button. I can see HA sending the group information in the zwavelog (Scene Controller is Node 58) but nothing when I press a button:

2019-02-06 22:24:44.624 Detail, Node058, Removing current message

I’m stumped. Another question, should the lights on the scene controller stay lite once pressed? Or do they just come on for a second and turn back off?

The messages that I see look like this (My scene controller is node 17):

The “Notification: NodeEvent” being the indication that it is sending events to the Z-Wave controller.

Your final comment about the lights staying lighted after pressing them did remind me though, because the “level=1” that you see in the first message is dependent on one more piece of configuration, and if I’m remembering right, once set, will keep the lights lit until you press the button again.

In the configuration>Z-Wave, page, select your scene controller in the Node Management section, then under “Node Config Options”, go to each of the group levels and set the config parameter with a value (I used 1 for group 1, 2 for group 2, etc…). I THINK that should be the last missing piece of the puzzle?

I also remembered this morning why you don’t want to create an association for each group - From what I remember, when I had the groups associated to my Z-Wave stick, any time I turned off a button, it would turn off every light in the house! No good! There may actually be a negative consequence to having group 255 associated, maybe when you use the “all off” button? I don’t use it, and I’d rather not try :stuck_out_tongue:

“In the configuration>Z-Wave, page, select your scene controller in the Node Management section, then under “Node Config Options”, go to each of the group levels and set the config parameter with a value (I used 1 for group 1, 2 for group 2, etc…).

Okay this now makes the lights stay on and the indicator value is changing in Home Assistant! Now the strange thing that is happening is some of the buttons are not giving the right value. Example, button one returns a 1, button 2 returns a 2, button 3 returns a 0, button 4, returns a 0.

Also, looking at the Boolean we created in the configuration.yaml they are not updating when buttons are pressed.

Lastly, when pressing the off button, what releases the lights that are on?

Okay, had to update the ValueID now your scripts are working:
-Line 74 as mentioned, make sure it references the z-wave node id. The value_id may be fine as is?

Now just need to figure our why buttons 1 and 2 are working when pressed, and the others are not, probably because the indicator is not returning a 3, 4, or 5 for those buttons.

Check the AppDaemon logs: Each time you press a button on the Scene Controller, you should see a log message from the ZwaveEventListener script that says:

Scene Controller Button Activated, refreshing indicator info

You should see that for every button press, but if the indicator value isn’t changing for each button, then you probably won’t. Try turning each button on and then off. If you aren’t seeing that message each time you press the button, I suspect the Group Level config parameter for that button may not have stuck. Try configuring it again, and see if it works afterwards.

If you do see that message for each button, then that means the events are all coming through and something is failing in the second script. But since you said the indicator sensor doesn’t seem to be updating, I doubt that’s the issue. There are some log messages in there too that we can look at if you’re seeing everything above.

Success!!! I had to set the level value in IE, for some reason it would not stick when setting it in Chrome. Lights are working! Thank you soooooo much! Does the “All Off” button just not work?

Excellent!

I don’t use the All Off button, but I do remember trying it early on. It should be functional, but you have to press and hold it for a second I think. Unfortunately you can’t really determine when the All Off button is pressed on it’s own, since it effectively just presses each of the buttons to make them turn off, so you can’t use it as a 6th button (or at least, I haven’t figured out a way to do so!)

the 255 is a broadcast group. It causes every device on your network to listen to the command. I somehow got a few of my sensors set with group 1 not only having my z-stick, but also having node 255 in them. Anytime someone would go into a room, every light in the house turned on. Then when people ran around to figure out what was happening and one of the sensors decided no one was in the room, it would signal no movement and every light in the house would turn off. Drove me crazy for literally hours. it was not fun when everyone was sleeping. Someone would get up to go to the bathroom, flag a sensor in a hallway or in the den and all the lights in the house came on. Not fun at all. But that’s what helped me figure it out. I would avoid node 255 at ALL costs.

Where do I find the OZW config device database you mentioned?

For what it’s worth, this worked with the Aeotec nanomote quad as well. Of course I took out index 5, since there are only 4 buttons.

Thanks for the help. now I have garage door openers that are associated to each person. This will aid in presence detection.

@turboc The OZW file is in the Home Assistant or Hassio config directory. The same location as the configuration.yaml file. But I think you are wanting the file that starts with: zwcfg?

in @Devanl 's post, he mentioned a OZW database file that would apply the same information for each new scene controller of that type that you add. Based on his post, it’s a different file that the zwcfg file where I made the change to get it working.

FYI - Pushing and holding the off switch does exactly what I need it to do :slight_smile: Now if I could just figure our a way to make all lights go to 100% without defining them one at a time.

Well things were working, I upgraded, now I see this

I restarted the services, and it seems to be okay now.

I updated the device specific config doc for zwave with info on the nanomote quad for anyone else that comes across this post, like I did. https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/z-wave/device-specific/#aeotec-nanomote-quad

I really appreciate all the info in this thread, but I’m stuck. I just got one of these Aspire controllers today and have spent hours trying to get it working, but I’m stuck here – when I press the buttons, I don’t see anything happen in my z-wave log. I have:

  1. Added the COMMAND_CLASS_CENTRAL_SCENE info to the right node in the XML config
  2. Successfully been able to set a couple of the buttons’ “Group X Level” config properties in the HA Z-Wave control panel so the lights stay on when the buttons are pressed (Group 1 Level = 1, Group 2 Level = 2, etc).
  3. I have the sensor object:

But absolutely nothing happens in the z-wave log when I press one of the scene buttons. Any suggestions?

Was Z-Wave shutdown when you made the changes to the XML file?

You probably tried restarting Home Assistant after seeing nothing in the logs, but I’ll mention it anyway.

Make sure the changes are still there after Z-Wave is up and running again.
