I just finished installing a Zooz Zen24 dimmer and it appears to be ignoring the ramp up/down that I’ve set via parameter 9. When i manually toggle the switch it behaves as it should, but when toggling the switch via the HASS UI or even as a service call and using “transition” it just goes instantly to the value i set. Is there something I’m missing?
Parameter 9 only affects the manual operation of the dimmer, not Z-Wave commands.
Can you post the actual service data you are using?
What does the OZW_Log.txt show when you set the light with transition data? It should show a command with a few parameters, which includes brightness and transition time.
Did not know that but that makes sense.
entity_id: light.upstairs_staircase
transition: 15
brightness_pct: 100
Is what I’m using in the service tab, using the light.turn_on service
Think this is what you’re after:

There would be another log message about “Duration” if the transition time were being set. So the z-wave command that is being sent doesn’t include a transition time.
I bet if you check your zwcfg*.xml file, your COMMAND_CLASS_SWITCH_MULTILEVEL is version 4 (or higher). If you check the supported_features the value is probably missing the flag that says it supports transitions, so HA won’t even try. A value of 33 means “supports transitions and supports dimming”. A value of just 1 means only dimming.
If so, it’s a bug and you’ll need to hand edit your zwcfg*.xml file (stop HA first) to add the value that exposes the transition feature. You’ll find the same discussion in this thread. A dimmer that supports transitions will have XML that looks like this (note the Dimming Duration value):
<CommandClass id="38" name="COMMAND_CLASS_SWITCH_MULTILEVEL" version="2" innif="true">
<Instance index="1" />
<Value type="byte" genre="user" instance="1" index="0" label="Level" units="" read_only="false" write_only="false" verify_changes="false" poll_intensity="0" min="0" max="255" value="24" />
<Value type="button" genre="user" instance="1" index="1" label="Bright" units="" read_only="false" write_only="true" verify_changes="false" poll_intensity="0" min="0" max="0" />
<Value type="button" genre="user" instance="1" index="2" label="Dim" units="" read_only="false" write_only="true" verify_changes="false" poll_intensity="0" min="0" max="0" />
<Value type="bool" genre="system" instance="1" index="3" label="Ignore Start Level" units="" read_only="false" write_only="false" verify_changes="false" poll_intensity="0" min="0" max="0" value="True" />
<Value type="byte" genre="system" instance="1" index="4" label="Start Level" units="" read_only="false" write_only="false" verify_changes="false" poll_intensity="0" min="0" max="255" value="0" />
<Value type="byte" genre="system" instance="1" index="5" label="Dimming Duration" units="" read_only="false" write_only="false" verify_changes="false" poll_intensity="0" min="0" max="255" value="255" />
</CommandClass>
Bingo, that’s what it is. Modified the XML and it works. Thanks!
