Device Database

Post by markolbert »

When my RaZberry interrogates my Linear WS15Z-1 switch the Select Device option gives me a number of "close match" choices. But none of them are WS15Z-1.

Right now I've configured it as a similar Linear device used for controlling appliances. But the WS15Z is actually just a simple wall switch.

Is there a way to update the configuration database the RaZberry uses? I looked through the online docs and didn't see one.

It uses Pepper1 device database, but it doesn't have your device.

You may write your own XML though.
Go to /opt/z-way-server/ZDDX/ folder, make a copy of any existing xml, change some details (vendor id, product id, descriptions, generic/specific class, link to device image, list of commands, assoc groups and parameters etc.) according to device manual and/or interview results, then run "python ./MakeIndex.py" to rebuild index.
After that you'll be able to see your description in the list.
