2nd Gen Switch Device Association

As a side question, is disabling local control in the ST settings the exact same thing as disabling the relay by pressing the config button 8 times?

Yes, kind of – there’s actually two different ways to disable local control (remote and local). When you press the button 8x, it disables local control (ie: if you manually press the light switch). However, if you want remote control disabled, that can be done via the device handler in the settings (towards the bottom).

I then tried associating the inovelli (source) to the GE (destination) using @EricM_Inovelli smartapp but it didn’t work. I changed the inovelli to use the GE device handler above and was able to get them connected and now it shows up under data in the graph in association group 2. However, it still doesn’t control the GE smart switch. Tapping up or down do not control the lights. The only way I can get it controlled is using the central scene which has a lag. Any idea why it won’t be working?

If you go into IDE, can you check to see if they are both showing up as the same, “networkSecurityLevel” (ie: ZWAVE_S0_DOWNGRADE or ZWAVE_S2_FAILED)?

The devices need to have the same networkSecurityLevel to be successfully associated with each other.

@gbenrus25

Also, do you guys plan to expose all the other 12 or so central scene commands as association groups also? That’s be really helpful for those of us using ST.

I believe @jtronicus brought this up in our thread about improving firmware: On/Off Switch (Red Series) | Project Lights Out (v2.0) - #19 by jtronicus which I think is an awesome idea. So, we’ll definitely look to add this feature and I’ve captured it at the top

@gbenrus25

shouldn’t be too much of work.

Famous last words lol – I said the same thing about the Dimmer Switch and here we are 6 months late lol.
