What is "Legacy-plugin" for Z-wave?

[Otto-mation]

Hi All,
I just (finally) upgraded to HS4 on my Hometroller Zee S2 (after ditching the last of my ancient X-10 devices).

I've been having some (incomplete) pairing issues with a new Aeotec Siren 6 and noticed in my Log screen, that everything Z-wave related is referred to as "Legacy-plugin".
Is that normal for HS4?
My system info is as follows - does anything seem out of the ordinary??
Thanks in advice.

There hasn't yet been a complete rewrite of the Z-Wave plugin for HS4 so you use the "Legacy" plugin which is still a HS3 centric plugin. I'd recommend using the core Z-Wave plugin and forgo the Z-Wave UI as it's just a confusing wrapper around the Z-Wave plugin.

Ahh, that might be my problem as the Aeotec support gent is using this Core one - where would I find that?
Please and thank you.

Go to Plugins > Add and search for Z-Wave.

Thanks, I just did and the one it returned Z-wave Core, showed the same version that I have installed along with the option to "Re-Install", which suggests that's what the Zee S2 has, just doesn't use the word "Core".
Guess I have to wait on the HS4 version for things to improve.
