I have a Zooz ZEN16 Multirelay installed to control my garage door, but there are a few issues that I cannot seem to solve.
First, is that the device when added comes over as a switch with an “on” and “off” position. clicking the switch to “on” activates the door, but switching it “off” does not. I did see that there were some ZWave parameters to change, so I have done so, but those do not seem to be working as I have been told or would expect. Below are the parameters that I have set. Most importantly I have set the “Auto Turn-Off Timer” to 3 with the units being “seconds” and also changed the Type to “Garage door (momentary mode for Z-Wave control)” but the switch is staying in the “On” position and not reverting to off. Am I missing something here or is this just how this device is supposed to work?
Second, I have a Cover template setup to combine the multirelay with a binary window/tilt sensor that gives me the state of the door, open or close. The binary sensor seems to work fine and I have found the parameter that gives me the Open and Close just fine. The problem is that the Cover device just doesn’t work at all. I see it in my dashboard and can click the “Up” button, but nothing happens. I thought this may be related to my issue above so I made sure that the switch was in the “Off” position, but still clicking the “Up” button does nothing. I something wrong with my configuration?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am definitely new to HomeAssistant and the way that things are configured.
Thanks.
