Despite searching 266,262 posts, I still can't wrap my head around the right way to enable z-wave associations in HS3.
Let's take a simple case:
The master is connected to the lights. The slave isn't and communicates to the master using z-wave [I think].
One would think, all one needs to do, is go to HS3>Device>Z-Wave and create and association for each device with the other Device's ID.
When I do that, the master always works - but the slave only works every other press and Homeseer does not show the updated status of BOTH devices.
If I also link the two devices in each Device>Configuration page, then it works as expected. But, this would seem to create a dependency on HS3, that shouldn't be needed with z-wave associations.
Can anyone explain what the right way of doing this is? Ideally, without having a dependency on HS3? And what does one do in a more complex case, like a 4 way Master-Slave-Slave setup?
Confused!
Let's take a simple case:
- A Master Dimmer Device [in my case a Cooper/Eaton 9540, but that shouldn't matter].
- A Slave Dimmer Device [in my case a Cooper/Eaton 9542]
