Z-Wave.Me and Z-Wave JS together?

Third party integrations
1

Hey folks.

I have an existing Z-Wave.Me system with around 25 devices. Idea was to keep this ecosystem (since I have a lot of logic in there already) and just add a second controller which bridges to homeassitant. Initial setup was fine. Problem ist that homeassitant doesn’t recognize any changes in the original zwave.me network. Adding or removing devices just doesn’t mirror in Z-Wave JS. I know that theres an option to add new entities automatically, but this only works if the device itself is known already.

Anyone got an idea how to force Z-Wave JS to scan for new devices? The standard way requires a new inclusion, but the devices are included in primary controller already…

Z-Wave JS doesn’t support being run as a secondary controller. You might see some things working, but it’s not a supported configuration.

Your other options would be to shutdown the zwave.me driver and run zwave-js as the primary controller software instead, or wait for the official zwave_me integration to be added (probably in a near future release).

Thanks for the quick reaction! I changed the Homeassistent zwave-js controller to primary now in sis mode, keeping zwave.me as secondary on suc and this appears to be working fine.
