Re: razberry 7 case

IMG_2699.jpeg I have the Canakit I mentioned above with the Razberry 7 Pro and a fan inside, as can be seen in the picture above. Granted, I had to do drill a hole on the top cover, for the fan to be able to pull some fresh air from the surrounding environment and a small hole for the external conn...

Maye sure to upgrade your RaZberry 7 to 7.28 SDK.

I believe it works faster because RaZberry 7 Pro has an external antenna and uses less routing and you use RPi4, which is waaaay faster than 3B+.
Thanks, PoltoS. Your help is much appreciated.

Re: Purpose of a secondary controller

Excellent explanation. The information you've so kindly given definitively helped me to understand a little better the intricacies of my z-wave network. I was able to reduce background noise from around -72 to -99 in both channels. All I had to do was relocate another Raspberry Pi 4 running from a U...

Re: Purpose of a secondary controller

The expert web UI for Z-Way has excellent diagnostic tools for troubleshooting why your system only works 98% of the time. If you have the time to learn how to use the tools, you'll be able to improve Z-Wave reliability (or at least, you won't have to guess why the network is unreliable). I want to...

Re: Purpose of a secondary controller

Quick update: I did a factory reset on my 700 series razberry on my Raspberry Pi 4 and restored both the advanced UI backup and the smartphone UI backup to it, all while the previous system from the original 500 series razberry on a Raspberry Pi 3B+ was off. I then rebooted the Raspberry Pi 4 and go...

Re: Purpose of a secondary controller

For the problem you're trying to solve - how to replace a 500-series Razberry with a 700-series Razberry, you don't want to add the 700-series as a secondary controller and then promote it to be a primary controller. You want the devices on your Z-Wave network to be unaware that there's a new contr...

Purpose of a secondary controller

Hi everyone, I've been playing with a variety of z-wave controllers in the last 10+ years. Over the years I've played with most available software home automation solutions (Vera, HomeSeer, Indigo, HA, OpenHab and Hubitat come to mind...). My main system has been based on Indigo running on a Mac, wh...

Re: Need Guidance... From a NOOB

It would be super nice if z-wave.me would release a dockerized version of z-way-server themselves...
