Problem configuring : Heatit Z-Push Button 8

Hi

I have a problem connecting the Heatit Z-Push Button 8 (https://www.heatit.com/z-wave/heatit-z-push-button-8/) to home assistant. I am using Gen5 USB Aeotec controller. With my earlier Domoticz system I was able to get all to work, but with Home Assistant I am struggling.

I have added the 8 button switch to the sytem by ‘add secure node’.
I get a node called “ThermoFloor AS Unknown: type=0300, id=a305” or “Tronica Unknown: type=0300, id=a305”. I have two different switches, both give a different node name. Content of the configuration xml file is the same for both.

I have replaced the text in the zwave configuration file as adviced in the bottom part of this manual.

After starting up the system again, the Nodes stay in Cachload status only.

Anyone who has some experience or can guide me to make this work.

Cheers

What happens when you push a button on the device?

nothing, unfortunately

What shows up on the OZW_Log.txt when you push a button?

good question!

if I add the device and do not make the changes to the xml file I get:

After I have changed the XML file I get:

Looks like it’s working, you need to setup an automation to listen for the scene event.

Reference:

Ok, how do I do that?

With other devices, I will get sensors automaticly added to my Lovelace interface. Sensors like motion sensor etc. With this device I do not see anything.

Can I create them manually or otherwise, how to manage with automation?

Read the post I linked, your answer is in there.

Thanks a lot firstof9, big time appreciated, i will do a deepdive and will be able to make it work

Cheers
