Modify (Fibaro) z-wave device settings without gateway

Configuration Z-Wave
1

I know this is not strictly a Home Assistant issue, but I’m guessing that if this is possible, I wouldn’t be the only one who could use this. But I’m clueless to how/if it can be done.

I want to disable the LED lights on certain z-wave devices (to begin with, a wall plug, but also potentially the Fibaro radiator valve). For the wall plug, Fibaro support told me that I needed to buy their gateway. However, I found this thread that guided me through disabling the LED for the Aeon Labs z-wave stick, and have disabled the LED on that.

Could something similar be done for connected z-wave devices? Or is this only possible because the USB stick is connected to the computer directly?

If it is possible, the thread about the Aeon Labs stick mentioned that (s)he found some info here, that made it possible. And, at least for the Fibaro wall plug, there is also a bunch of info here with codes for controlling the LED.

I don’t know if this is even possible, but I’m certainly not buying a gateway just to turn of the LEDs. If it is possible, does anyone know a “general” formula (what do all those numbers in the first post mean?) that could be used for any z-wave devices?

You can try using the zwave panel of the configuration page if the zwave device’s configuration is properly defined in open-zwave. Specifically, select the node under z-wave node management, and see if options are available for node config options. If not, but you know the config parameter number and value needed to do what you want, you can use the zwave.set_config_parameter service on the services page.

I didn’t see this option in the node management. I’m moving, so I’ve just packed away everything, but once I’m up and running again, I’ll try the zwave.set_config_parameter service.

Thanks!
