Hi guys!
I´m new at this forum, got here trying to make this GR MultiChannel Switch work with Home Assistant (that uses OZW).
The switch is made by a chinese firm U-Fairy G.R. IOT Tech and identified by them as GR-B3-3, According to its catalog there are other models with single and dual switches identified as GR-B3-1 and GR-B3-2.
The documentation I have is only a picture of theUser´s manual and a doc found somewhere with some more technical information.
The module has 3 switches and OZW identifies as Unknown. The manufacturer Id is “0152”, already correctly defined in OZW database as “G.R” but with Type “0500” and Id “0005” not showing in the database.
At first, the problem is that even when HA correctly detected and included that device, the 3 switches it exposes only report its physical status, but ignore any attempt to change them through ZWave.
Managing to add the new device to manufacturer_specific.xml produced a 4th switch to be added to Home Assistant that works as expected but only over the first switch. There´s no way of switching On/Off any of the remaining two.
<Product type="0500" id="0005" name="GR-B3 Multichannel Switch" config="gr/grb3.xml"/>
Grb3.xml contains nothing but a copy of another multichannel switch I found in the OZW installation on my RasPi, with the hope of solving the problem with this sole presence. But it didn´t work (not surprised, really)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Product xmlns='http://code.google.com/p/open-zwave/'>
<!-- Multi-Instance configuration -->
<CommandClass id="96" endpoints="3" />
</Product>
Trying to switch any of them produces:

And the switch in HA goes back to the previous state after a few seconds.

And the first switch get´s changed (Off in this test)
I had this switch working on SmartThings but I´m in the works of abandoning it. To be able to make this switch works in ST, I had to use a modified version of a SmartApp that some else wrote. Without that SmartApp the switch at first behaved exactly as in OZW. The SmartApp (written in Groovy) is available to review if it helps but basically managed to send the following codes to the switch:
def on1() {
log.debug "Executing 'on1' with delay of ${settings.delayMillis}"
delayBetween([
zwave.multiChannelV3.multiChannelCmdEncap(sourceEndPoint:1, destinationEndPoint:1, commandClass:37, command:1, parameter:[255]).format(),
zwave.multiChannelV3.multiChannelCmdEncap(sourceEndPoint:1, destinationEndPoint:1, commandClass:37, command:2).format()
], settings.delayMillis)
}
def off1() {
log.debug "Executing 'off1' with delay of ${settings.delayMillis}"
delayBetween([
zwave.multiChannelV3.multiChannelCmdEncap(sourceEndPoint:1, destinationEndPoint:1, commandClass:37, command:1, parameter:[0]).format(),
zwave.multiChannelV3.multiChannelCmdEncap(sourceEndPoint:1, destinationEndPoint:1, commandClass:37, command:2).format()
], settings.delayMillis)
}
I have also a screen capture of Zensys tools showing the device characteristics detected by Zwave from this switch:
I hope someone in this forum be able to process all this information and produce a fix to make this switch working in OZW and, therefore in HA. I´m available to provide any help he/she could need to make this happen.
Thanks!!!
