ZWA011 Not Reporting State Change

I have an Node Red flow that’s triggered by the state (opened/closed) of an Aetec ZWA011 window switch. I disabled the flow last October to avoid inadvertent operation. Today, I enabled the flow only to find the switch is not reporting it’s state change. Regardless of whether the window (switch) is opened or closed, the state remains closed. I see the LED on the switch flash when the window is opened and closed so it seems the switch is working okay. All other entities of the switch update as/when they change.

Has you seen this behavior before? If so, we’re you able to correct it?

Not really possible to answer without knowing how you interact with HA. Is it using entities?

But, the default open/close entity does not work for ZWA011. You can you use regular position, tilt position, or simple status instead. If your flow uses entities, look at the entity list and choose the one that works.

The device is connected to HA via a ZWave stick and HA’s ZWave JS integration.

I find this hard to believe. The entity named binary_sensor.sliding_door_senor_access_control_window_door_is_open, would change state, showing opened and closed when the door was opened or closed prior to the Node Red flow being disabled in November 2022. There’s been several updates applied to HA since November. I wonder if one of those updates changed the way the ZWA011 reports this state?

Yes. Driver has changed behavior. Now there are new sensors as a result.

If these entities do not appear, then you’ll need to re-interview the device. I’m pretty sure the “simple” status sensor appears without interview.

That did the trick. I know have an entity that reports when the window is opened or closed.

Much appreciate the assistance.
