Inovelli LZW36 Device Type

400HPMustang opened this issue · comments

I have an Inovelli LZW36 fan and light switch added to Z-way via UZB. I'm running the v3.2.1 on Windows 10. Since the device is a fan/light switch I expected to see a fan and a light. What I'm actually seeing is three dimmers. It looks like one is actually an on/off for the light, one is a dimmer for the light and the third controls the fan.

I can see in expert UI that the device type is correct

Is there anything that can be done to correct the way the device is displayed?

Please go in expert UI interview page, click on Interview results and then on 1. Show the content. We need to check what device type is announced there

There are several options for 1. Which would you like?

All are the same.

Okay, the device reports being a simple dimmer. You can do this:
/JS/Run/zway.devices[9].instances[1].data.specificType=8 and restart the Z-Wave binding.
You can also do: /JS/Run/controller.devices.get("ZWayVDev_9-1-26").set("metrics:icon", "fan")
(check the ID)

This will change the icon.

When you say "change the icon" you mean the device will appear and behave as a fan and not a dimmer, correct?

actually, the dimmer and the fan differs only by icon, I believe

Interesting. I will go through the process of changing the icon later today to see what happens but hopefully the change causes Home Assistant to recognize the device as a fan and then I don't have to mess around with a fan template to convert it.

Looks like we don't have yet the Fan template in the integration. This is to be done

Do you have an ETA for that to be done?

Also I'm not using the Z-Wave.Me integration in HA because I have not been able to resolve this issue yet

So right now my Z-Wave device is using HomeKit controller to import into Home Assistant.
