Hi everyone,

I'm having a weird issue with my new relay.

 

I added it to my network (openzwave controller + z-stick s2) and it seems ok since I can retrieve its state and all the 'services' it provides.

 

The problem is when I want to change its state (let say switch ON) I send the command, the module acknowleges, but unfortunately the inner relay does not switch on

Here are some logs, where I can see that the module received the command... but the relay remain off

Is my module broken ??

 

Thx.

Does it switch when you connect a switch to S1 and L? If it switches, it's your software. If it doesn't, the module is broken.

For the external switch, it might be interesting to set this parameter to the type of switch:

Parameter No. 14 - Switch type connector, you may choose between momentary and toggle switches.

Default value: 1

Options for changing the parameter:

0 - momentary switch

1 - toggle switch

BTW when you say it doesn't switch on, do you hear a click?

Do you have the right connections? Don't forget to connect "L" to "IN" and your load to "N" and "Q1".

    I tried with an external switch, and the module is switching correctly...

    That's not a really good news because communication seems correct from what I can see from the logs.

     

    I'll check the library I'm using to get the communication working, to see if there is any custom settings for the Fibaro devices.

    The "on" and "off" commands are so very "basic"... all devices understand them. I see in your log the software attempts to use "SwitchBinary" and that's the thing I'm talking about. I know "openzwave" because I like to dig in their code to understand how things work, but I don't have a running system. But here's an idea. The FGS-211/212 present themselves as a nodes with three endpoints, if I am not mistaken? Then try endpoint 0 (= the basic function of the relay) or endpoint 1 (the first relay, = the same as endpoint 0). Endpoint 2 is for the state of S2 (there's no relay behind that).

    Thanks for your answer.

    I'm not what you mean when you say

    I dumped the data I retrieved from openzwave (

    ) and I see several command endpoints but it seems that there is only one that can control the module. (the class_id:37 one)

    Sorry, I don't know enough of openzwave. If I ever find the time to toy with it, I'll report back... On a Fibaro HomeCenter, you'll see this device represented as amaster having three (sub-)parts (endpoints or instances). I think the data you posted is a list of all parameters, isn't it? I can recognize it as having a json-like format and I see all the parameters supported by the module. I'm not sure if this file contains any information related to the endpoints or instances... But that could be me, misinterpreting the contents...
