HC3 not finding any devices

[OrganicWaste 0]

Hi,

 

I have a new built home with a lot of dimmer 2's behind our switches, a few Philips Hue lights and a Forest shuttle (Z-wave) for our blinds. I've just installed the HC3 and put it in our living room, close to most devices. Unfortunately I can't seem to find any devices. They haven't been paired up with a controller so far. Don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I need help.

 

I used the manual in getting the devices added: Settings, devices, add device (+), and tried the different options in the learning mode. Result stays the same "no devices found".

What am I doing wrong?

Did you use the dimmers on a other gateway before? my dimmers are working fine on hc3 but i first deleted them from hc2

You need to set the z-wave device in paring mode. See manual for your devices. 

Edit 

The hue will not work at this time it's not implement yet.

Thanks for the help :). Complete noob here... !

Setting the devices to pairing mode worked. Got the lights, blinds and screen working. 

Hope hue will come soon. In the meantime I'll start making scenes

 

Thanks!

but you have hue Bridge? if so, add it with add device, other, search for hue 

 

 

and add (well actually Import already added to hue Bridge) your hue lamps here

Thanks for the input. I tried adding the Hue system like you said. I press the button on the bridge, but after pressing "create user" (within 30 sec) he doesn't seem to find anything.

Tried searching on IP of the bridge as well, but no results.

Hi @OrganicWaste any news on solving your problem? I've got the exact same problem with my HC3 - won't find any of my devices.

Thanks!

@shirlzz: I did solve the problem. It was very basic.  As i recall I didn't have to press search to come up with a device, but add the IP adress and then press 'create user'.
