There are two other threads that are really relevant about the Z-wave side of this device:

A Warning About Iris Smart Plug Z-Wave Repeaters

These are NOT RELIABLE repeaters. After becoming increasingly frustrated with frequent Z-Wave power cycle events I blew away the entire Z-Wave portion of my system; well north of 100 devices, Since my Iris days I have always suspected their reliability. So I decided today to start the rebuild process by only connecting 20 of my 42 Iris Smart Plugs to create what was supposed to be a strong and stable Z-Wave plus backbone. The first 5 SmartPlugs were in the same room as the hub. After pairing them I ran a Z-Wave repair with no errors. I then moved to add devices in an adjacent bedroom, 4 Smart Plugs total. Added in the 4 devices then ran a Z-Wave repair. Three of the 4 devices in the adjacent room, no more than 12 feet from the hub failed with “Could not update mesh info” and “Could…

[RELEASE] Iris SmartPlug Z-Wave Repeater with Diagnostics

I am releasing the DeviceType code that I wrote to manage the often flakey Z-Wave repeaters found in the Iris V2 Smart Plugs manufactured by CentraLite. This DTH has a few features that can be very useful in troubleshooting the reliability and stability of these devices. Currently it seems that delayBetween() is currently broken (again) and sends all commands at once, regardless of the specified duration. These devices are notorious for being overwhelmed and will frequently fail to respond to Z-Wave commands if they receive too many in a short period of time. As a workaround, this DTH implements a series of scheduled events to ensure that the device has sufficient time to process commands that it receives. This DTH can be used for all currently connected Iris Repeaters. It also conta…
