HomeKit showing device as light but is a fan

[ghulands]

Hi,
I have a Leviton ZW4SF fan controller that is showing as a light in home kit. I added the tag

Code: Select all

type-fan

but doesn't seem to make a difference. Here is the ZDDX for the device.

Is there anything I can do to get it to show up as a fan?

Thanks,

This is from a GE (Jasco) Z-Wave switch. I wonder if you can't use say the manufacturerId value, productType value and productId value to create a hybrid of the two. The GE does show up as a fan.

I tried changing the productType to 4944 but that failed on startup when interrogating the device. I tried to set the specificClass to match, but that had no material change as after applying it, i went and downloaded the ZDDX and it was set back to 0 so my guess is that is derived from the device interview.

I finally found the source to the homekit gate module on github and tried many different options to expose the fan properly. I ended up giving up and gave home assistant a try with zwavejs. It all just worked. I think I'm going to have to say goodbye to z-way-server.
