ZWave Issues / Aeotec

[gReatAutomation]

Thank you! I've ordered the Aeotec extender pack and the Zwave Toolbox and will continue onward.

Just make sure you do a network repair after each change or addition to your network. If I add a repeater I do two network repairs in a row.

Thanks. Appreciate the advice. To lay this out in full:

- Add Zwave device to Leviton Zstick via Vizia Software
- Do network repair in Vizia software (if adding a repeater, do this step 2 times)
- Perform include process on Vizia software and in CQC Zwave Client interface

Looks to be correct.

Thanks. I'll report back after I receive the troubleshooting tool device.

So I added the the Aeotec Range Extender 6's and added them with the Leviton stick and Vizia software. Then did a repair, then an include with CQC.

The devices are showing in CQC as NoAutoMatch, which I assume is OK from a ZWave perspective? Also, did to Enabling Security Encryption on the extenders? (http://z-wave-assets.s3-us-west-2.amazon...1492712834)

I would just use the drop down and mark them disabled in CQC and save those changes. CQC doesn't know anything about them and that will prevent it from trying to figure out what they are every time it restarts or loads.

[gReatAutomation]

Does disabling them in CQC disable their functionality on the ZWave network?

[Dean Roddey]

No, it just makes the driver ignore them.
