I used to be a PHP programmer and can still cut-a-rug with some CSS. I couldn’t pair my garage door unit or half my Z-Wave Plus devices properly. I couldn’t pair my Aeotec LED Strip and make pretty colours in my lounge. I couldn’t trigger a motion event to turn on a basic light.

I couldn’t make anything update or change via the Aeotec Multisensor 6.

So it’s one thing to learn how to make the system work but if the hardware trouble shooting takes all your time…exasperation ensues. I moved them to be within ‘you need a breath mint’ distance and still, no joy. Perhaps it was the distance from the device to the Rasberry Pi and ZStick. Everyone said ‘you can do most things through the UI now…’.Īlso ReadweLock Touch Fingerprint Door Lock Review - Secure Biometric Entry for your Homeįor a start, half the known Z-Wave Plus devices I tried to connect were marked as Dead. I could see them in the panel (cards) and could make small adjustments to them in my YAML file. I learned YAML, integrated my Ring doorbell, my abode security system, a nice weather panel, my Yale Smartlock, my iCloud connection for location data, a nice Zone map and even my Aeotec Multisensor 6. Installed Z-Wave requirements, added my ZStick and it worked. I committed to a Rasberry Pi, as recommended, and flashed a copy of hass.io on it. Perhaps using a complete Hass.io set up will solve my issues. I thought, maybe the problem with all these Z-Wave devices not connecting well is just my old Mac Mini. The hardware was fine as I’d tested it on other Z-Wave networks. It never worked the same twice even if it did work and IF it worked the same way twice things didn’t connect right. I tried to add a bunch of Z-Wave Plus devices…but it was like a Frog in a sock on a motorway – it was hard to get. I bought an Aeotec Z-Wave ZStick and installed the Z-Wave modules.

A cool semi-developer styled Home Automation and Smart Home project I could get my teeth into. I installed Home Assistant first on my Mac Mini, got a nice interface going with it when Lovelace was about to become the standard UI. Hass.io and I are going to take a little break from each other.
