ZWave Leviton ZW4SF Fan Speed Controller

Configuration Z-Wave

I did some searches to try to figure out how to turn on the fan speed controller and set a value (speed) through an automation but came up empty handed. I did end up figuring it out so I thought I’d post the info in case it helps someone else.

The issue seems to be that there’s no speed or value entity for the device, so I can’t select the desired entity in the automation to set the speed.

I downloaded the zwave diagnostics to find the information on what to use in the “set value of a z wave value” action.

Command Class: Multilevel Switch
Property: targetValue
Value: 75 (or whatever you want)

device_id: device-id-here
domain: zwave_js
type: set_value
command_class: 38
property: targetValue
value: '75'
wait_for_result: true

This turns on the switch and sets the value.

Unless there’s a new version of that model, the Z-Wave integration provides a fan entity for that device. If there happened to be a new version, then it would be a light instead. You don’t see either of those?

well sh*t, look at that. just switched the automation to use that. works. i don’t think i’ve ever used the fan entities before. thanks for pointing that out!
