Let me see if I can take a look at this. Iā€™ve been neglecting updating many of my DTHs due to lack of time. I may make some changes and have you run the live logs again.

I did some more digging into this, So the device reports a battery status at every 46 min. so here is what i get in live logging

[c190d6f8-2c59-45e0-ba49-7136f997252b] 9:13:47 PM: debug Parse returned SecurityMessageEncapsulation(commandByte: [100], commandClassIdentifier: 128, commandIdentifier: 3, reserved13: 0, secondFrame: false, sequenceCounter: 0, sequenced: false)

I am not familiar with command classes and how to use them. I was able to find more info on the zwave alliance product page for it. Here are the 2 links if it helps

New to SmartThings. Just got my ST Hub v3 and I having some difficulties understanding how to add/control Z-Wave devices that I have added through the Graph API. I have followed the instructions and the devices do show up in the ST app but I am unable to do anything and/or pair the devices.

In this case I have an Aeotec Range Extender 6 which I have added in the Graph API (per instructions below) and it appears in the ST app just fine. In the old version of the ST app it shows up as Unknown and then eventually offline/unavailable with a red dot to the left.

https://aeotec.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/6000188439-range-extender-6-with-smartthings

In the new version of the ST app it is listed but tapping on it does nothing and I get, ā€œCanā€™t connect to device. Check device and try againā€.

I am just lost as to how to get this to work. Both this site and Aeotec, which has specific instruction on how to add the Aeotec Range Extender 6 device handler groovy code, but nothing about what to do next. Attempting to pair the Aeotec Range Extender 6 does nothing the Green light blinks for about 5 seconds and goes away. Nothing in either old or new version of the ST app give me any indication of this device other than it being listed from the Graph API.

Can someone please advise? Thank you in advance.

Hi!

I love your device handler. The generic z-wave is seen as a switch which I donā€™t like. It always shows off. The online/off-line status is much nicer.

Any idea why it is seen as a switch in the new ST app? I use both apps but this device driver does not behave the same way in the new one. The homepage tiles donā€™t seem to behave like they do in classic at all.

Sorry for reviving such an old thread. I cant seem to find ā€œForce Reconfigureā€ does this not work in the new ST app?
