Need help to start with z-stick and one fibaro switch

[radar]

Hi,

That's my second thread and I'm completely lost, so I ask for some help.

I have the following hardware:

• Z-wave stick for z-wave.me
  a synology nas DS414
  mac computers
  FibaroFGS 221 V2.1

And I cannot figure our how to use them all together. The first issue is how to include the Fibaro into the network. There is no button on the z-wave.me stick to enable device inclusion. So:

• How should I proceed?
  Can I manage to do something with my existing hardware or do I need to buy at least a raspberry?
  I'm lost between synozwave, openremote, and other softwares. Is there one of them I can use in my case?

Thanks a lot for any help.

I guess synozwave is best fitted in your situation. I haven't followed it recently. Look on their site if they support DS414. CPU architecture is the most critical. Community was quite active at the time.
With regard to OpenRemote, I can say that it is rather limited in terms of supported devices at the moment. I do have my doubts about the viability of that community project.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. Actually, I have synozwave running on my NAS but cannot figure out how to add devices with this specific stick.

That is indeed a problem. RaZberry won't help you. Also OpenRemote does not have a function to do that.
I am not aware of any on-line setup service as there used to be on the now dicontinued Z-Cloud service.
You may try to trade in your stick for the Aeon stick that can include/exclude devices.

edit 20141102: I looked into the JIRA project tracking system of OpenRemote. There is a inclusion/exclusion function planned. Last activity in June this year. Also planned is low level Z-Wave protocol. Last (adminstrative) update May 15 2014
