Still no FGDW-002 support

[irekk 5]

Few months ago, after release of FW 3.3 for Window/Door sensors I got stuck being unable to update 28 of my sensors in FGDW-002 version.
With the release of HC 5.170 and information about

Cytat

Support for FGDW-002 in version 3.3 added.

I was hoping I will be able to get huge list of devices solved finally. Ufortunately that's not the case. There's however a difference in the experience. Previously clicking on update was resulting in whole Z-Wave being very busy and unresponsive. And update resulting with an error right after clicking the update the button.

With new HC firmware, the experience is that it tries to update the software - it goes from 0% to 100%. Meanwhile the z-wave is very laggy again (up to couple of minutes to react to opening doors etc). After hitting 100% device disappear from the list and reappear after few minutes, and HC remains laggy.

Please verify this information. To me, release of 5.170.13 did not improve the situation.

Did you made an re-interview (reconfiguration) after the update?

I did read configuration - which helped for most of the devices (only a few updated without any problems)
I did soft reconfiguration for remaining few devices - it helped for some, except for one
I did hard reconfiguration for the remaining, which eventually shows v3.3 now but it still shows up on the update list and awaits for communication (I did reconfiguration though). (Device keeps the ID!)

But what I still struggle with, is that updating devices completely shuts down scenes based on door/window sensors but also motion sensors. It requires to restart the controller. For example when I walk through a corridor, motion sensor lights up the lightning 10-15 mins later. Even if there's no device updates. It seems to be related to that one faulty device. Everything is fine until controller will not show the waiting for communication message.

OK, after I managed to reduce number of devices for update to ~10, the HC and the update process become reliable. No lags, no need to read configuration. It looks like 30+ devices is an overkill for the software.
