This happened once before about 6 months ago. There is some third part tool to edit device parameters. Think it’s Z-Wave Device Config. Mc. Annoying that I have to go fix a dozen switches.
Just tried Z-Wave Device Config to change parameter 2 to value of 2 (LED off all the time). This isn’t working now. Very frustrating. Some of these are in my bedroom and act like night lights and make it hard to fall asleep.
What Driver are you using? The official Zooz driver lets you adjust the LED setting on device detail page of some or all of their switches.
Yes, I’m using the Zooz driver. I believe I have Zen21 Rev2 switches (15 of them). For some reason this isn’t built into the driver for this version.
Yes, exact same driver as me. No control over LED with some older devices in that Description list (namely Zen21 switches).
You can cycle thru the possible LED settings by a specific tap pattern on the switches. Check the doc that came with the switch (es).
I wish that was possible. All of my Zooz switches are on a firmware less than 3.0. 3.0 is where they added the 6 tap ability to change LED behavior. It’s also where they added the ability to flash firmware OTA. I was hoping to be able to flash with Simplicity Studio, but Zooz just emailed me to say that wasn’t possible. Hoping for an Edge driver update to add the parameter to the settings.
Perhaps that depends on the model of Zooz device. I just verified with one of my ancient ZEN27 dimmers running firmware 2.03 that the 6x lower paddle tap cycles the LED mode.
What model Zooz device do you have?
I see that this setting was left out of the 2x switches in the driver profile for some reason. Its in there for the 2x dimmers.
Still interested in having it fixed?
Yes. Another update his this week and I had to fix them all again.
The last driver update was on 4/18. Not sure why that would be changing it though. The way it is setup now the driver does not even know what parameter number that is to even change it.
I believe it was a SmartThings firmware update, not the driver. They get pushed over a week or so and it must have hit me over the weekend. All of the parameters got reset for my Zooz switches. Same thing that happened before. It didn’t happen with any of my other devices. I have every single switch, garage door, lock etc on Z-Wave in my house. 63 devices total.
I sent you a PM with a link for a test channel where I added 3 missing settings for the ZEN21/23/26 profile. There is only one profile with all the settings in, but since you have an older device they might not all actually work. This is how these older devices were setup by the prior author so it must not be causing any issues.
And you will get the message “Device has not updated all its settings” or something to that effect.
Yeah possibly, I have not seen anyone complain about that though This profile already had some settings in it that I know are not present on the old v2 hardware so my update should not make things any worse.
Just tried the Dev driver. I see the LED indicator setting now. One of the issues is the mapping of parameters for V2 and later firmware models of the ZEN21.
VER 2.0:
Parameter 2 - LED Indicator Control: 0 on when off, 1 on when on
Parameter 3 - Enable/Disable LED Indicator: 0 LED enabled, 1 LED disabled
VER 3.0:
Parameter 2 - LED Indicator Control: 0 on when off, 1 on when on, 2 always off 3 always on
Parameter 3 - Auto Turn Off Timer
With normal driver and DEV driver, I can control things with parameter 3: Auto Turn Off Timer.
Is there any way for the driver to have different parameter controls for different firmware versions?
Yes. Getting that message for all ZEN21 switches. “This device hasn’t updated all of it’s status information yet.”
It never goes away now.
That’s because the app expects those attributes to get populated, but the device doesn’t support them and doesn’t respond with values when queried.
In the absence of a Zooz driver that has parameters correctly aligned for the ZEN21 Rev2, I might try toggling parameter 3 to get the LED where I want it. Then I’ll switch to the generic Z-Wave switch driver and see what happens after the next firmware update.
