Z-Wave JS UI, and Z-Wave JS

I’ve been using Z-Wave JS addon for a while to manage zwave devices. I now want to try using Z-Wave JS UI to set a parameter that is not yet supported by the official Z-Wave JS addon.

You can also set unsupported config parameters in HA using the zwave_js.invoke_cc_api service call.

service: zwave_js.invoke_cc_api
data:
  command_class: "112"
  method_name: set
  parameters:
    - parameter: 7
      value: 1
      valueSize: 1

Where parameter is the parameter number, value is the value to set, and valueSize is the size of the parameter in bytes (1, 2, or 4).

I just installed the Z-Wave JS UI addon, and I think it is connected to Z-Wave JS. I’m a little confused, is there any more configuration I need to do before it will work?

You need to carefully follow the instructions in the docs to switch add-ons, otherwise Z-Wave JS UI won’t work properly and you’ll have major problems. https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/zwave_js/#how-do-i-switch-between-the-official-z-wave-js-add-on-and-the-z-wave-js-ui-add-on

The add-on has its own documentation you should be following for configuration. Every add-on has documentation on a separate tab of the add-on’s page, so the same instructions are available there.
