My setup is rPi with Nortek USB stick. I migrated my setup to ZWave plus. All light switches got recognized and are working fine.
However my door sensor (DWZWAVE2.5-ECO) did not. I tried removing the battery, add node, heal but no joy.
You need to wake it up, possibly several times, for it to be interviewed. For how to do so, you’d have to check the user manual.
Yes tried that by removing the battery and waiting 5-10 seconds and then pressed Add Node. No joy.
Now I tried adding a new sensor I bought : Aqara Door and Window Sensor. Same problem. I cant even tell whats happening when I press Add Node or Heal network
Old Zwave Integration was much user friendly and logs were easily available in one place. This add-on stuff is just tiring to work with…
Interesting development. I removed the top cover of the sensor, I found in this log

I do remember it was a Disabled node (disabled by Integration) which I removed to see if comes back into network.
Clicked Add Network and got this

According to their website:
Wireless Protocol:
Zigbee
Zigbee != Zwave
Yeah figured out the Aqara is Zigbee.
Still fighting with the Ecolink which is Zwave+
The eco link says to remove the cover to wake it up.
EDIT: Specifically Removing the top case from the sensor will put in device into a tampered mode in which the sensor will stay awake and able to receive messages. do this until the interview is complete.
Yep that worked. First I removed the node completely by pulling the battery out. Then went to Add Node and kept the top case open. That ensured the device didnt sleep on inquiry!!
Thanks for the help.
