Developers / Re: Supporting the ACT Solutions ZCU201 USB Z-wave Interface

Merten Configuration software is very good and give a nice possibilities to configure and troublesh. your network.
It is also possible to transfer your upset when work is done to HomeSeer.
But:
1. You need Merten Conf. Tool HARDWARE to use this software.
2. New wall (dimmer/appliance) modules from ACT recognises only with basic functionality.
3. New wall (transmitter) modules from ACT not recognises at all.
4. Merten still not make available Configuration Files Creation Software.

First answer on your imp. question. No. It is not possible to make a backup with Merten Configuration Hardware/Software of one existing Z-Wave network. One must start from the ground and create a "new project".
About hardware compatibility. Yes it is a some problems her. Its look that many manufacturers dont know that a "Z-Wave Logo Program" is.
Merten still dont have Remote Control. But the "Merten Configuration Hardware/Software" dont support ZTH200 from ACT.
Only supportet Remote right now are one from Innovus (but you need a spesial configuration addons that are not delivered with original
Configurator software. Also all new wall modules from ACT will be recognized only with a Basic features. I talking in long time with Merten Support about possibility to get from them a spesial "Configuration files creation Tool" software, but answer was - NO. After all they said OK it will be available for downloading (end of 2007). But nothing happens yet.
Another thing - Z-Wave standard for battery powered devices are different in Europe vs USA. So long we had problems w/HomeSeer software and Merten wall (battery) controllers, probably the same problems can came in LinuxMCE.......................

We tested and delivered to customers Merten (Z-Wave) hardware from beg. of desember 2007.
Its look and feels OK but I will also agree - price to high. We dont make a test w/Linux MCE software
so long it was a support problems w/new ACT interface...

Are you using Z-Wave? I thought it was 110volt only! I'd love something like Z-Wave for 220v/50Hz. Any suggestions?

I can talk with guys from Seluxit (Denmark). Its look that they was interested to offer support for the LinuxMCE project.
About new ZCU201 from ACT. This interface work fine with HomeSeer. As older ZCU010 this is not a real USB device.
Like old one this unit use a COM port emulator. But if you look on Windows drivers for ZCU201 and ZCU010, they are not the same...

Today we tested a LinuxMCE with two new (European) Z-Wave, PC-interface.
One of them are from Seluxit. Another (ZCU201) from ACT.
I can confirm now that both interface dont work (can not be recognised) with LinuxMCE.
