Many battery powered zwave devices only accept configuration changes at the time they are joined to the network unless you do what is called a “forced wake up. “
And still others have a fairly long waiting period in between when they will accept configuration changes. All of this is done to save battery life.
Normally, the Aeotec trisensor only accepts configuration changes every four hours. So even if the edge Driver does a forced wake up (I don’t know whether it does or not) it could be four hours before you see the changes take effect.
Sometimes the manufacturer will have included a forced wake up button on the device itself, and then holding that in will cause the device to immediately process any pending changes. But you have to check the user manual to find out if there’s a specific tap pattern or length of time you have to hold it.
The Aeotec trisensor does have a button of this type, it’s described in the user manual.
So it’s possible that your changes are still pending and just haven’t taken effect yet.
As always, the first rule of home automation applies: “the model number matters.“ You’ll have to check the user manual for any batterypowered device you want to use this edge driver with to see if there’s anything special you need to do to get the changes accepted. (since Mains-powered devices don’t have to worry about battery life, they will generally accept a reconfiguration request at pretty much any time.) 
Here’s the old Groovy DTH, where you can see the same issue is being discussed. There won’t be any difference between an edge driver and a groovy DTH in this regard, the issue comes from the way the device itself is manufactured.
