I am truly sorry to have to be the one to tell you that although the regular Cooper wall switches are compatible with smartthings, there is no wall mount scene controller or tabletop controller which is compatible with SmartThings at this time. (That may change in the future.) That includes the two Cooper scene controllers that have been mentioned, both the wall mount and the table top. **THE MISSING REPLICATION COMMANDS** The smartthings generation one is zwave certified only for basic set commands. This allows switches to turn on and off, and multi level switches like light dimmers to move through their levels. It also supports association. What it does not support, at least as of this writing, is the zwave controller replication or scene configuration command classes. For this reason, you cannot set up a scene in one device, including the hub, and then transfer it to another device as you might with some other Z wave primary controllers. You can verify this from the official zwave conformance statements for each device. The alternative in a smartthings installation is to use one of the custom code smartapps that does scene management, like scene machine or flexi light, to name just two of a dozen or so, and then trigger those from one of the remotes that does work with smart things, or a tablet dashboard like the very popular SmartTiles.

Since SmartThings doesn’t officially support any in-wall Z-Wave remotes, I’m wondering which one has the best unofficial support.

But not everyone has been successful getting those to work with ST, and you still have to associate each button with a smartapp or hello home phrase. The zigbee SmartenIT 3 toggle switch also works very well with ST and is good for either wallmount or tabletop. > [@Battery Operated 3 Toggle Switch for wallmount or table top use (SmartenIT ZBWS3B) \[DEPRECATED: STOPPED WORKING IN 2018\]](http://community.smartthings.com/t/battery-operated-3-toggle-switch-for-wallmount-or-table-top-use-smartenit-zbws3b-long-install-faq/13131): > > This code stopped working with the 2018 version of the SmartThings app. The device should no longer be considered compatible. Yes, Virginia, there is a battery operated toggle switch that looks like a regular switch and can be used to change modes, run Hello Home Actions, or toggle one or more devices on and off! It does have 3 toggle “buttons” instead of just 1, which some people will see as a negative, but it’s a very nice device. It can be mounted on the wall anywhere, it does not require any wiring. Or it can just lie flat on a table. It’s zigbee, but because SmartThings supports both zigbee and zwave, that doesn’t matter, you can still use it to control any of the devices you control through SmartThings. smile You can also easily feel the separations between the three toggles, … You can find many of the most popular community created smartapps here: > **[Community Created SmartApps](https://community.smartthings.com/c/smartapps/created-smart-apps/43)** > > This section is where users have completed SmartApps that they want to share with users.

[http://www.smartthings.com/product/works-with-smartthings/](http://www.smartthings.com/product/works-with-smartthings/) So although this topic began by talking about simple switches which are compatible with smart things, it has veered into discussion of scene controllers, which are not even though they are from the same line. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.smartthings.com/t/cooper-aspire-rf-syncing-master-and-auxiliary-switches/10547)._
