Yes, I do. In the meantime I switched to control IR devices (AC, TV...) with the USB-IRT. I moved the z-troller master controller to another room to see if that would change something but the issue is random. I start to believe that the z-troller is guilty of not routing always properly the messages back. By adding devices and have the mesh network more dense I hope it will solve the issue...

I did put some code to explain. In that case, I have 2 devices
The motion detector 0D  and the switch for the light  0E
In that case the transaction worked but took 1 second until I got the light ON
I am not sure to understand why... I suppose that the device took another path to transmit the signal but why did the device sent 2 times that a motion was detected since closer devices from the Master only say it once. Did my answer to the motion detector to say that I received was not received? If the motion detector repeat the motion detection it probably believe that I did not received the message...
Some times It goes faster, some time I receive the motion detection 4 consecutives times...
I believe that the routing here is in cause So that's the reason I would like to be able to order my own routing. With your answer I am not able to understand what would be the command to ask for a specific return path? Do you have any samples that I could try?

Here I receive the motion notification
07-20-2008-08.16.12.988R<-- 01 09 00 04 00 0D 03 20 01 FF 22
I answer that I received
07-20-2008-08.16.12.988S-->06

Because of the motion I send the request to switch the light ON
07-20-2008-08.16.12.998S-->010A00130E032001FF050333
The device signal again that it detected a move
07-20-2008-08.16.13.028R<-- 01 09 00 04 00 0D 03 20 01 FF 22 06   01 04 01 13 01 E8   01 04 01 13 01 E8
I answer again that I received
07-20-2008-08.16.13.038S-->06


I Switch On again since I m not sure that he received my request the first time
07-20-2008-08.16.13.048S-->010A00130E032001FF050333
This time I receive a confirmation
07-20-2008-08.16.13.068R<-- 06 01 04 01 13 01 E8
I answer I received
07-20-2008-08.16.13.068S-->06


Since the motion detector is awake for about 2 seconds I request the % light in that room
07-20-2008-08.16.13.659S-->010C00130D0560060331040503BE
I receive the reception confirmation
07-20-2008-08.16.13.669R<-- 06 01 04 01 13 01 E8
I confirmer I received
07-20-2008-08.16.13.669S-->06
I do not know the meaning
07-20-2008-08.16.13.709R<-- 01 05 00 13 03 00 EA   01 05 00 13 03 00 EA
I confirm I received
07-20-2008-08.16.13.709S-->06
I do not know the meaning
07-20-2008-08.16.13.949R<-- 01 05 00 13 03 00 EA   01 05 00 13 03 00 EA
I confirm I received
07-20-2008-08.16.13.949S-->06
Since the motion detector is probably still awake I request the temperature light in that room
07-20-2008-08.16.14.160S-->010C00130D0560060231040503BF
confirmation he received
07-20-2008-08.16.14.190R<-- 06 01 04 01 13 01 E8
I confirm
07-20-2008-08.16.14.190S-->06

Hi Hari,
I have a working home made software to controll some appliance with z-Wave, If you need I share all my sources (VB 2008 express).
I m trying to fill as much as I can on the http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/ZWave_API#RZP15_Vizia_Leviton_Appliance_Module_switch but I ran into a problem with a HSM100 that is not always able to route trough the z-troller (it does works sometimes) So I was hoping maybe you could hand me some help with the routing part. I would like to be able to force the route to the z-troller with the path I choose since the auto routing  seems not very reliable with z-wave... I found in your code

#define TRANSMIT_OPTION_AUTO_ROUTE     0x04
#define TRANSMIT_OPTION_FORCE_ROUTE    0x08

So I suppose I ll have to send a command like that 01 0X 08 15 UU
but how should I define the route to the next unit who is unit 13 (vizia switch) and then the ztroller in that case? Do you have any ideas? Would you share some binary tought?
