Unable to Add Devices on New HA System

Complete newbie here on a newly built system:

Home Assistant Operating System installed on a Intel NUC
Aeotec Z-Stick 7
ZRC-90 Scene Master
FIBARO Single Switch 2 FGS-213

Updating the original post.
Re-installed Home Assistant from scratch
Still cannot add ZRC-90 Scene Master nor FIBARO Single Switch 2 FGS-213

Perform +Device and HA ultimately times out without finding either device.
FIBARO Single Switch 2 FGS-213 has a “Z-Wave range test” mode which if I am reading the results correctly, indicates it is not detecting a signal from the Aeotec Z-Stick 7

Based on what I have deciphered in HA, HA is communicating with the stick. Is there any log that would tell me if the stick is trying to communicate with devices? If so, how do I get to it? Also, is there a way to check if the Z-Stick is configured correctly (eg region/frequency, etc)?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Right now this is a pretty frustrating experience!

Thank you!

I seem to be able to communicate with the Z-Stick 7 as I was able to update to the latest version of firmware and after my many failed attempts to add the ZRC-90, statistics show nearly 6000 messages have been sent and received.

There was a post (which I cannot seem to find again) where a user had a similar problem. That user’s problem turned to be an incorrect region for the Z-Stick. The post said the region can be set from the device settings, but I have not been able to find the setting, or even determine for what region it is currently set.

Another concern is that under Settings->Devices the system lists both

Z-Wave JS
Z-Wave JS UI

Should both be installed?

Any links to instructions or suggestions on how to debug this problem will be greatly appreciated!

Hi,

I think I’ve the same situation on my side as yours.
I can add new z-wave devices in my new z-wave JS UI add-on, but I can’t include z-wave sensors from my old fibaro installation.

I cant’t understand why, do you find a solution at your problem ?

THierry

You have to exclude devices from one network first before you include them into a new network. The good thing is you can use any hub to exclude a device.
