Are Devices Communicating?

Post by SolarFlor »

Dear all,
my second device is just arrived.
I have two devices now.
Device 2 is a Wall Plug (Fibaro) while Device 5 is a Micro Switch G2 (Aeotec).
Looking to the Routing table (see picture below) seems that the two devices are not connected between them but when I remove the Plug I'm not able to control the Micro Switch anymore because it is quite far from the Razberry.

Why the Routing table is not showing that communication.

It is enough to include the devices to have them communicate between them or I should do something more?
Thanks for the support

In Expert Mode you can force an "Update Routing Tables", so you don't have to wait

Many thanks,
I just realised that often the status of the Micro Switch will not update automatically and I need to do it manulally.
Why?

Both Fibaro and most of Aeotec devices uses new features of Z-Wave called Explorer Frames. They resolve routes themself. Controller is not always aware about the result of this "self-healing" process. So, updating routing tables will not only fix routes, but also allow controller to read aut-solved routes form devices. That's why you can see red, while in fact it is green.
