I’m using Zwave2MQTT. It has a firmware update tool built in. Can this be used to flash the two Inovelli firmware files?
Did you mean Zwavejs22MQTT? I didnt think zwave2MQTT had a built-in firmware update tool
You’re right. I meant zwavejs2MQTT (GitHub - zwave-js/zwavejs2mqtt: Zwave to Mqtt gateway and Control Panel Web UI. Powered by Nodejs, ZwaveJs and Vue/Vuetify). I’m using their latest dev Docker image. Sorry for getting them mixed up. Their names are very similar. Here’s what I see when I browse to the control panel for zwavejs2MQTT.

I’m wondering about this too
Just a reminder that there is a more recent beta:
In case you all are looking for the bleeding edge :D.

Odd - I’m getting the following error when trying to flash the bin file (Target 1): “Error while calling api beginFirmwareUpdate: Unable to extract firmware from file: Could not detect firmware format.” I’ve tried both the production and the beta files.
I believe support for .bin files was just added today ( Release v6.3.0). You may need to update your zwavejs/zwavejs2mqtt

Wondering if there is daylight at the end of the v1.52 beta such that it will be released?
Also, there is vague mention of “bug fixes” and wondering if that would solve a v1.48 red dimmer having to have power cycled in order for it to communicate on the Z-Wave network after dropping off of it?
There will be at least a 1.53 to fine tune some of the changes in 1.52.
Can you give me more background on this? What platform and config are you seeing this on?
Good news regarding the release.
Setup is Z-Net on HomeSeer. Only 2 so far, both Red Dimmers. But it seemed very odd to have happened. Seems happy after power cycle.

I was installing a dimmer in the new house and tried to use the config button to set it for 3-way using an aux switch. The dimmer has the neutral supplied and the aux switch was the Homeseer HS-WA100. I’m not sure what I changed because the aux switch didn’t work right so I got one of the settings wrong. I reset the switch and tried again and then it began working.
However, the interesting part was that with the wrong configuration the dimmer started to click just like the switches click when turned on and off. It did still worked to dim properly at the dimmer. This leads me to believe the dimmer has a relay in it. So, my question is why the dimmer doesn’t always use the relay to turn off the lights? When turned off, ramp down as per the settings then open the relay to turn off. This would avoid leakage current through the MOSFETS, which would both eliminate complaints of bulbs still glowing when off and save some leakage power that is making it to the bulbs.
Not sure where else to post this question. I had upgraded all the dimmers before beginning to install them so I hopefully wouldn’t have to upgrade again.
That is a good idea. The clicking is because in 3-way dumb switch mode the wiring is actually a traditional 3-way circuit. So the relay switches the output from the Aux terminal to the Line Out terminal. This isn’t needed in the other modes, but I guess it could be used to cut power to the bulbs in neutral mode.

Not sure what the “file link above” is, but if you’re looking for firmware, that’s where to go.
The direct link to v1.48 FW
https://files.inovelli.com/firmware/LZW31-SN/Beta/LZW31-SN_1.48.otz
Traversing the directory tree, it looks like the updated URL is https://files.inovelli.com/firmware/LZW31-SN/1.48/LZW31-SN_1.48.otz
Thanks, I have fixed the link.
Quick question: when pressing and holding it still seems there’s a delay. If the press delay is set to zero is there any way to remove any delay when holding / dimming? Thanks as always @EricM_Inovelli!
Hmmm, I believe there still needs to be a delay to determine if the user is just pressing the button vs. holding it. You can adjust the dimming speed to 1 or 2 to make the delay less noticeable.
Is that current delay configurable? I feel like I have everything set to the lowest delay.
As always appreciate your work on this!
