Users / zwave tricklestar include problem
« on: July 07, 2009, 09:19:11 pm »
Hi again been busy with the family and new garden lately.
Have done a duct tape solution including zwave relays (on off devices) to control the watering valves.
Now I wanted to add these devices to the zwave network and doing as should with the tricklestar in config mode press and hold, green light, release and press again, blinking.. Now to the device (holding the tstar next to it) doing the include(3 quick presses) also tried doing the 4 press procedure which does a reset.
Nothing.. the tricklestar doesn't even try to zoom in on the device.. usually this can be seen by faster blinking and then lock on.. =)
I have reloaded the router(just in case) and have tried this a few times with both devices and looking at the log(level 36,40,41) but I start to wonder if the remote is not even in the network?
how can I check that?
Does the tricklestar needs to be connected 24/7 to the usb?
I have not had it connected in a while before now since I only use it for inclusion. Connected it a day before though to charge it...
I have seen this before and then I solved it by adding all devices once again but surely there must be a simpler way since there starts to be a few devices now in our home..
Thankful for all inputs
