Home Automation - Roller Shutter

[Eric]

As promised, here is a step-by-step guide of how I got my FGRM-222 to work. Obviously this comes with no warranty, so do make proper backups. I will assume that the device is already working as a SwitchBinary and that you have fixed the configuration file by doing the constant -> rangemapped replacement described elsewhere on this forum.

1. Check which ID the device has, in the example I will use 4.
2. You can try to use SwitchMultilevel from the command line:

   Code: Select all

   curl -g 'http://localhost:8083/ZWaveAPI/Run/devices[4].instances[0].commandClasses[38].Set(50)'
   

   This should print 'null' and put your blinds in the halfway down position. If it doesn't work (Error 500: Internal Server Error), run the calibration of the roller shutter and try again. If you restarted the Z-Way server after the last calibration you will have to recalibrate.
3. Stop the z-way-server

   Code: Select all

   sudo service z-way-server stop
   

4. Now to make Z-Way remember about the multilevel capabilities go to /opt/z-way-server/config/zddx. Here you will find a single file called XXXXXXXX-DevicesData.xml.
5. Make a backup of the file for if we break something:

   Code: Select all

   cp XXXXXXXX-DevicesData.xml ~
   

6. Open the file in your favourite editor and find the bit that looks like the following: (0025/37 is SwitchBinary)

   Code: Select all

      <commandClass id="0025">
       <data name="devices.4.instances.0.commandClasses.37.data" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691481" type="NoneType" value="None">
        <data name="supported" invalidateTime="1401379300" updateTime="1401379301" type="bool" value="true"/>
        <data name="version" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691481" type="int" value="1"/>
        <data name="security" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691481" type="bool" value="false"/>
        <data name="interviewDone" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691504" type="bool" value="true"/>
        <data name="interviewCounter" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691504" type="int" value="9"/>
        <data name="level" invalidateTime="1402830879" updateTime="1402830880" type="int" value="0"/>
        <data name="mylevel" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691481" type="int" value="0"/>
        <data name="startChange" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691481" type="NoneType" value="None"/>
        <data name="stopChange" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691481" type="NoneType" value="None"/>
       </data>
      </commandClass>
   

7. Duplicate this section and edit the class ID as follows: (0026/38 is SwitchMultilevel)

   Code: Select all

      <commandClass id="0026">
       <data name="devices.4.instances.0.commandClasses.38.data" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691481" type="NoneType" value="None">
        <data name="supported" invalidateTime="1401379300" updateTime="1401379301" type="bool" value="true"/>
        <data name="version" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691481" type="int" value="1"/>
        <data name="security" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691481" type="bool" value="false"/>
        <data name="interviewDone" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691504" type="bool" value="true"/>
        <data name="interviewCounter" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691504" type="int" value="9"/>
        <data name="level" invalidateTime="1402830879" updateTime="1402830880" type="int" value="0"/>
        <data name="mylevel" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691481" type="int" value="0"/>
        <data name="startChange" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691481" type="NoneType" value="None"/>
        <data name="stopChange" invalidateTime="1393691480" updateTime="1393691481" type="NoneType" value="None"/>
       </data>
      </commandClass>
   

8. Now save the file and start the z-way-server again:

   Code: Select all

   sudo service z-way-server start
   

If all goes well you should see a working multilevel switch in all the interfaces!

Many Thanks. We will try soon

[dolam]

Thanks very much to Eric and SolarFlor , now my roller shutter Fibaro FGRM-222 works well and stops in any position.

[Eric]

You're welcome, good to hear that it works!

[dolam]

now I have another little problem, I have a second device fgrm-222 that I can not re-included in the network I did the reset but I can not see. What is the correct procedure to be able to re-include? thanks

[pz1]

Sometimes it helps to Exclude a device before Re-include. (It may have been assigned to a different network before)

[dolam]

as a rule it out if you do not see it on the network? tank's

[PoltoS]

@Eric,

sounds interesting. I got your point. There is an easier way to go:

Do /JS/Run/zway.devices[N].data.nodeInfoFrame = zway.devices[N].data.nodeInfoFrame.value.concat(38)

This will add 38 to the NIF.

Then in the UI do Force Interview.

But I was assuming that after changing params in the FGRM-222 new request NIF will add 38. Doesn't it?

[Eric]

I think I tried requesting a new NIF and it didn't help, but I tried a lot of things and I'm not entirely sure anymore. Unfortunately I won't be in the apartment where I installed the roller shutter until next month, so I cannot test it right now.

[dolam]

sorry if I say something stupid, but it seems to me that the problem is only to replace "false" with "true" in the second line of '"id 0026" on the device (N), here:
<data name="supported" invalidateTime="1401379300" updateTime="1401379301" type="bool" value=false"true"/>

oltre alla sostituzione nel file XXXXXXXX-DevicesData.xml.
