Z Wave and Neeo - The Integration Issues so Far
Hey Guys,
since I’ve tried to integrate my Z Wave Devices to Neeo a couple of weeks ago I recognized that there are many Issues regarding the customization of the included Z Wave Devices.
Just to make sure the team is aware of these issues I want to point out what I experienced so far. Maybe others could add what they recognized. The Inclusion as a secondary Controller worked out well for me so nothing to complain about from my side
- Battery powered Devices , like Fibaro’s Motion Sensor, will only appear in the “Not initialized Devices “ Section after waking them up manually. There’s no possibility to add them right now.
- Every added Switch will automatically added to the Light Section. No chance to move to another room or delete from there.
- Every other Device will automatically added to the Living Room . No chance to move to another Room.
- No possibility to Rename Double Switch Toggles. You can Rename the Fibaro Double Switch itself but no chance to Rename the single Toggle. If you have a Greenwave 6 Node Smart Plug with 6 Toggles it’s pretty confusing.
I hope some officials could say something about these issues and what they plan in further updates.
Thx

For most battery powered devices this means the program button needs to be operated.

Before waking up the motion Sensor by pressing the Button 3 Times on the Device itself its recognized as Unknown in the Not initialised Section. After pressing the Button it changes to its device Name as you can see. But nothing else happens

I suggest you add a request to the Idea Voting section.

which Double Switch do you have? This is how it looks like with two Fibaro Double Switches. Right now you don’t know which Toggle does what by its Name.
