[Solved] Battery level through ZWave to Home Assistant ??


Vincèn

Question

Hi

 

I use Home Assistant automation system and it uses OpenZwave for communication with ZWave devices. I use few Fibaro devices with success on it. I just have one little problem: all Fibaro devices (Smoke sensor and eye/pir sensor) report only 100% battery level all the time. Is it Fibaro device not reporting it ? (I doubt of that) or my modules too old and it would need a firmware update ? or something not supported by OpenZwave ??

 

Thanks

 

Vincèn

battery status is reported ok usually by the Fibaro sensors, so I would suggest that this may be an issue with

1) either your inclusions of the device did not succeed 100% (even though it seems to)  

2) an issue in the openZwave spec for your sensor. This is, for me, the most likely case, and then I would go and ask on the OpenZwave forum. I think they should be able to help you better.

    Thanks for confirming it's not something on Fibaro side ;) I'll check with Openzwave community and in fact found someone complaining about same problem months ago so it looks like it's a OpenZwave limitation but will investigate ;)

     

    Thanks for help,
