[12.04] OpenZWave Aeon ZStick Issue

(1/6) > >>

davegravy:
I started having an issue this morning with my Zwave setup where I lost communication to my network. In trying to debug I decided to update my install to get the latest changesets which effect OpenZWave.

Following the Zwave log there seems to be communication with the controller as there are polling requests being sent out to all the nodes and responses coming back.

If I send a command to the device via webadmin (e.g download configuration) there is no corresponding action in the log.

Also I'm seeing these which I never noticed before:

All loglevels are enabled.

I deleted my zwave device, restarted, went through config, and the parent ZWave device is added but none of the nodes get auto-added to the config.

Any ideas?

davegravy:
I couldn't get LinuxMCE to reset my Zstick so I had to do so via a trial homeseer install on another machine.

I re-added one of my nodes to the network and seems to be working now. Will update once the rest of my network is added back.

hi davegravy,

In order to get Lmce to reset your controller, you must send a reset command to the ZWave device, with the argument set to "ResetController".
These links discribe in detail how to use the Lmce 12.04 open-zwave implementation:

davegravy:
Thanks Raybe.

I haven't added back all my other nodes yet, so I still just have the one test node in my network.

This morning I couldn't control that test node anymore. From the logs it looks like overnight my CORE decided that the node was dead after several attempts to reach it. I tried a router reload but that wouldn't bring it back. A reboot fixed it however.

The node represents a lamp module which is 5ft away from the Zstick so it shouldn't have trouble communicating to it. I mistakenly deleted the log which shows the point last night where the communication died, but I'll wait to see if it happens again and post the log if it does.

davegravy,

Recently i used a extension cable to get my aeon-labs z-stick away from my core, more towards my z-wave network, so there was no interference from my core on the stick.
Before it was plugged in the back of my core. I also positioned the z-stick vertikal.
I found a article online, discribing this as the recommended way.

After some testing i found out that my z-wave network responded much better.
Even a battery operated sensor, which previously responded every now and then, now responce great.

br,
Raymond
