Timed Scenes Stopped Working Automatically

Thu, 02 Nov 2023 06:13:41 +0000

I have scenes like the sunrise scene that turns all lights off automatically stopped working after the update with 2 or 3 days, it works fine manually.
Does anyone have the same issue?

I hoped they fix this bug soon and I don’t wait years until it’s fixed. - Fibaro are too slow-.

Update: As time passes it’s sometimes working and other times must run the scene manually. -Inconsistent performance-.

Issue with updating to newest Beta

My Fibaro wouldn't update to the newest beta. Luckily I saw the post:

I followed the steps. Went into recovery. Clicked repair..... And now my HC3 restarted with a very very old backup restored and I have to figure out what has changed since. Thanks al lot. for the 'solution'. next time maybe double check the steps./

Issue with battery-powered sensors

Thu, 26 Oct 2023 20:15:48 +0000

I added a Window-Sensor (AEON Labs Door Window Sensor Gen5, but issues occur also for other sensors) to the system which was sucessful. With new batteries the power shows 100%. After I have changed the type from "Opening Sensor" to "Window Opening Sensor" and pressed "Save", the type changes as expected but the Power is shown as 0%.

Is this a known issue?

Fibaro, is this a joke?

Thu, 19 Oct 2023 22:29:16 +0000

All these month of waiting for a new release, a release that took time because it was BIG things in the release.

And this is what you give us!

What can I say….. HOMEY here I come 😃

Impossible to exclude devices (include works) on Engine 3.0

Sun, 05 Nov 2023 13:39:23 +0000

Dear all,

It looks like with this update I can no longer exclude devices. Either battery powered, or mains powered.

- Tried to remove my NorthQ powermeter, as it gave to many communication errors (according to new Z-wave diagnostic panel)

- Tried to remove a RGBW controller (FGRGBWM-441), including worked, excluding 1 hour later does not work

Tried close (1m) away from the homecenter 3 and also rebooted. Made no difference.

Everyone else experiencing the same? I am on z-Wave engine 3.0

Steinel IS 140-2 associations aren't working anymore

Sun, 05 Nov 2023 13:21:31 +0000

After upgrade to 5.142 Steinel IS 140-2 associations aren't working anymore:

1) The device is not sending command to associated device.

2) HC3 shows incorrect associations (too many "incorrect" associations with "device removed") - see the image below. The existed correct associations are not listed.

I have 3 devices - all devices have the same problem.

5.142 availability

Sun, 05 Nov 2023 11:11:45 +0000

Hi,

I'm running currently 5.140.17 on my HC3.
It does not show the update to 5.142.

It only shows the beta 5.142.83 (beta)

When will that be available or s it not rolled out in all locations?

Z-Wave Diagnostics

Sat, 21 Oct 2023 05:27:33 +0000

Hi,

The new page with Z-Wave Diagnostics is nice. While there is no map of the actual routing, at least one can see if there are any nodes with failed communications.

What i do not understand is the number of frames information. It is supposed to give information about incoming and outgoing number of frames from a certain node to the hub.

Sometimes i see a Fibaro Motion Sensor having something like 1548 incoming / 25 outgoing frames in an hour. What kind of information would the hub (HC3) be sending this motion sensor ?! 1548 frames send from the hub to the FGMS-001 seems way too much. Plus, i see no reason for the hub to send anything to a motion sensor except routing info. There are no lost frames, sensor is in direct connection to the HC3.

Thank you.

5.141.59 (beta) to 5.142.83 (beta)

Wed, 18 Oct 2023 09:36:11 +0000

A new version is available 5.142.83 (beta) but cannot be installed, after the update the old version is still active. Are you able to update ? Thank you

Soft Reconfigure Failure

Tue, 24 Oct 2023 12:27:32 +0000

Was trying to change the parameters on an AEON Lab Energy meter that wouldn’t save, so tried a Soft Reconfigure. The soft reconfigure failed and left the device un-configured.

Then power cycling the device but the soft reconfigure stilled failed, so rebooted the hub.

After the hub rebooted about 1/3 (system has 101 devices) of the devices where un-configured.

Required a backup restore to fix the problem.

DropDown List to QA Variables

Mon, 23 Oct 2023 07:50:03 +0000

Hello,
DropDown List is a great new functionality, but it would be great to add this option to QuickApp variables as well. Now only text and secret variable types can be used.
But if I need to set the IP address of a device for example, DropDown List can be loaded with values from the ARP and then only select from existing device IP addresses.
Now the user has to get the IP address in a different way and then fill it in as text.

This setting is not useful to place on the main QA panel.
Thank you

system freeze

Sun, 22 Oct 2023 07:31:29 +0000

in the new update I feel one problem, when I make a change on the device, when I save the change, HC3 freezes and the web interface is unavailable for a minute, it is then necessary to log in again !

Such a small disappointment

Fri, 20 Oct 2023 20:14:39 +0000

I was excited about the new update , looking forward to the new features. Especially the support for energy metering, where the use of batteries in photovoltaic power plant will finally be incorporated. Unfortunately that didn't happen. I also assumed there would finally be full zigbii support. The color adjustment for lights still doesn't work. I would also have welcomed a network map function and connection diagnostics. Unfortunately after half a year all that has happened is that something has changed in the system, but user-wise not much.

Unfinishing rebooting after HC3 update

I tried to update my HC3 to the 5.142 version (from 5.141).

Unfortunately, after updating my HC3 want to start - it always show me "rebooting" window.

The recovery icon on device (+) flashes with green.

What do I need to do?
