Compatibility with Horstmann thermostat and EZ Motion 3in1


lumel

Question

Hello,

Using my HC2, I see that Everspring products are supported by system, but not my thermostat Horstmann HRT4-ZW and relay ASR-ZW, and EZ Motion 3 in 1 triple sensor.

System detects this products but they are not working, there are not possibility to use them in scenery, etc..

These products will be compatible in future?

Thank you!

Mario

AGAIN reset and connect it.

I bought a Fibaro HC2 for 499 euro and want to connect Z-Wave devices simple and quick for that money. If these troubles continue with Z-Wave devices I want my money back.

If I wanted to experiment with settings and do the thinking myself I would have build a linux box with Z-Wave USB stick.

The montion dections of the Everspring SP814 like I stated before send it's data after ONE HOUR!!! by that time my house is empty.

It's not to much asked to get a decend product for that amount of money.!!

I think, all today users of the HC2 gateway, must understand is very clear - It is still an BETA software product. I think it will take as minimum 3-6 m. to came to some asseptable

to the "End User" functionality and 3-part hardware support. So dont await ant "miracles" here. THINGS TAKE TIME (3T - prinsipe

If it still BETA don't sell a product..!!! or for a way reduced price . Where on the site can I read thats a BETA, or better yet where in the manual is that stated??

You dont sell cars the have 3 wheels attacht that normaly have 4 wheels.

I've had it with product that are on the market that not work like they are advertised.

Dont make lame excuses like "THINGS TAKE TIME" for manufactures, sell products that work or dont sell.

Dude! Just take it easy.

Look around you: HomeSeer Tech. are on the HA marked in many years and they still have huge problems to adopt software for European Z-Wave users.

VERA people offers now 3-generation of hardware and 5-gereration of UI. Have they solved all problems? Answer is - NO.

In the present time Fibaro is only one European gateway manufacturer that really want to offer the best support/compatibility to European, Z-Wave devices. So, just give them a chance...

yes, agree with hkmod25

When you look to the others they are older but still have problem. Sometimes it is not the producer of the box that solve problems but end-users, technical users.

I think that Fibaro knows all the problems/complains but like for every company that develop software, you have roadmap, list of futures features, performance increase, stabilize the actual, solve bugs ... no easy to manage it

But also I understand the frustration of some users, you buy something that you expect working certainly when it is one the most expensive box in Z-wave world.

Exactly, that is what my trouble is about, I bought this Box because it's most promissing out there, and for this kind of money i'm expecting something in return.!

This is a Quote of the fibaro site

Thanks to our permanent cooperation and compatibility with their products, we have access to infinite intelligent building solutions and possibilities, which makes the FIBAR Group a pioneer on the market.

If there's trouble with 3th party hardware make a list of wich is working.!! then users like me are not suprised if my sensors, switch or what ever is not working as they are suppost to.

Look around you: HomeSeer Tech. are on...

So because other company's can't make te promisse, Fibaro can't inovated and get out of the circle and make it happen? Bull. Think outside of the box and make it happen, then you make a difference. not by pointing to other company's.

That's the last comment on it I don't want to get of toppic al lot here.

I understand your frustration but you can be assured that we are working hard to solve all of the problems. Please accept our apologies for all inconvenience so far. Full compatibility with Hortsmann and EZ 3in1 shall be available in 1.023(short after Easter)

I'm sorry to say, but this is still not working on batteries.!!

it's pushing data every 360 sec. As set in the master device....

The trouble with that is that movement is detect also every 360 sec. if the sensor doesnt detect motion in that time trap... you can gues the rest.

360sec is al low as it wil go, batteries are already draining this way. (arming the house is of no use this way.))

Again Fibaro is there something you guy's can do about? or is there a motion detector that WORKS..

Settings for the EZ 3 in 1

Can you confirm that when external power supply is connected motion detector works fine. I ask because i'm waiting for 3 of those detectors, if they will work fine on external power i will start doing wiring for them

I've been messing with parameters and scenes but it won't work the way I want it to.

I would like to:

If lightintensity <10% AND motion is detected turn on lamp.

Turn off lamp after 120 sec if there is no motion anymore.

i will test with these exact settings today!

one thing i noticed and it might be the way to check if the sensor actually got added correctly.

in HC2 web portal i could see temp readings for specific sensor but the iphone app did not show temp for that sensor. also that one sensor did not run in scenes.

after removing and readding all figures appeared and scenes started working. Try to see if yours sensor diusplays temp in phone app correctly (not in web browser)

i will let you know of test results later today!
