It seems like openzwave is not sending anything related to this device further to mqtt (the OpenZwave topic). I do see response in the VNC Openzwave management interface.
Included (insecure because secure wasn’t working) the following device successfully. A "ZME_WCD2 Double Paddle Wall Controller:
It shows button pressed on the OZW control panel via VNC. But no output is seen in home assistant and/or in MQTT (Using MQTT explorer I see nothing happen on any button presses but I do see on the VNC viewer…)
I really hope I am missing something very simple because this is the first of many I am wanting to migrate from Vera.
I have also tried other “Action on Group x” settings (and yes I know how to wake the device etc.)
I can see direct action in the “Event List” upon button presses. But nothing in home assistant… (also not in Node Red via the events:all node and also not in mqtt explorer…
Basic Set is not supported in the new integration. Try changing the “Action on Group” settings to Send Scenes or Send Preconfigured Scenes. You will probably need to add Node 1 (controller) as an association for groups 2-4. If the scenes are being sent, you can detect them with the ozw.scene_activated Event.
Group 1 is already associated by default. If you set the Group 1 setting to one of the Scene values, do you have any different behavior? In HA you can go to Dev Tools -> Events and listen to even ozw.scene_activated.
For the other groups you’ll have to use an MQTT command for now. MQTT Explorer is a good program to use.
Publish a message with topic OpenZWave/1/command/addassociation/. The message payload would be something like this to assign Group 2.
have tried (a lot) but nothing gives me any outputs in the ozw.scene_activated for this device. I have node-red open listen and debugging everything on this and for this device it is silent (for another scene controller it works). I do only see “things happen” in the VNC window. Nothing coming in MQTT (and thus home assistant).
I have added that association, but not sure what this does on the openzwave part since nothing is coming in on mqtt from this device at all (!).
some screenshots:
These setting give me output above (see in screenshot)
