ioBroker.zwave2

Z-Wave for ioBroker. But better.

Z-Wave 2 is a brand new Z-Wave implementation for ioBroker. It is based on zwave-js, which was written from the ground up for your benefit.

Unless ioBroker.zwave it does not require OpenZWave. This means that the installation and updates are fast, and no compilation of static libraries and other complicated steps are necessary.

Furthermore, some devices just don't work in the original adapter, e.g. the Fibaro Roller Shutter 3.

Easy usage in ioBroker was kept in mind during the whole development. For example, some devices reuse configuration parameters to configure many different things. In this adapter, most of them are split into separate states and no complicated math is necessary:

Changelog

Older changes

3.1.0 (2023-09-27)

Updated zwave-js to 10.23.6. This includes the following changes:

• Added support for Security S2 multicast
• Added support for parsing additional information from Notification CC Reports. Note that this may change the values reported for Door/Window sensors! If you rely on the old behavior, use the new Door state (simple) value instead.
• Added support for Energy Production CC and Window Covering CC
• On devices where legacy alarm values are mapped, the resulting Notification values are now created during the interview.
• Fixed an issue where communication with a node included with Security S2 was not always using encryption.
• Fixed an issue where the Z-Wave stack would not start on Windows systems
• Z-Wave controllers hosted remotely over TCP can now be discovered using mDNS
• Disconnects of Z-Wave controllers hosted remotely over TCP are now detected again
• All commands contained in a Multi Command CC are now properly handled
• Failures while assigning routes to nodes no longer mark the node as dead (unless they actually are)
• Values for unsupported Door Lock CC features are no longer created
• Several reliability/correctness improvements for device interviews
• Auto-assign routes between nodes after creating a new association
• Values for Battery, Meter, Multilevel Switch and (in some cases) Notification CC are now queried periodically or on device wakeup
• Notification variables (like Lock jammed) are now updated when another received report indicates a change, even if the device did not update the notification variable itself.
• Fixed a startup crash that happens when the controller returns an empty list of nodes
• Fixed a crash that happens when message from an unknown node was received
• Several improvements for auto-assigning Lifeline associations
• Lots of new and updated configuration files, see Z-Wave JS releases for details

3.0.5 (2023-01-28)

Updated zwave-js to 10.5.4. This includes the following changes:

• Fixed a memory leak caused by a dependency
• Fixed an issue where multiple re-interview tasks for sleeping nodes could be queued and would be executed in parallel
• Fixed an issue where firmware updates could use a too large fragment size after upgrading to v10, causing the update to fail
• Several improvements related to Security S2
• New and updated configuration files, see Z-Wave JS releases for details

3.0.4 (2022-09-21)

Updated zwave-js to 10.2.0. This includes the following changes:

• Fixed an issue where the possible states for Notification values could be incomplete
• Fixed an issue where setting the time on some devices would always use UTC, even this should be done with local time
• New and updated configuration files, see Z-Wave JS releases for details

3.0.3 (2022-09-06)

Fixed some more communication issues. If a device isn't working properly after upgrading to 3.x, try to re-interview it.

3.0.2 (2022-08-30)

• Fixed some crashes and communication issues
