I’ve had this issue for a while now, I was hoping that updated Firmwares may improve things. But alas it hasn’t (inc Beta 7.30 1.7.4783).
The issue first was shown with a Z-Wave remote constantly going thru batteries as it was acting as a repeater (for some reason) but then when it was no longer functioning, the Z-Wave on/off switch wouldn’t communicate with any device or controller, which was at a maximum of 5m away.
To include the Switch (Aeotec Smart Switch 6) it would need to be within 2 meters of the controller. 3 meters away, it wouldn’t pair or be discoverable.
Added to this it appears the beta has stopped scenes from running on schedules.
Thanks for the reply… Yeah I read that, great source of information!!
But no, 2 Aeotec smart switches and a multisensor (usb powered)… so only 3 devices plus the gateway (and until the issue is sorted the Remotec remote isn’t powered on anymore).
Direct line of site, All Z-Wave devices (use to use many Insteon devices, but the gateway adapter for Vera was not made for Australia.)
So yeah, all i can think of is that after a short period of time the devices have all started to fail somehow.
Aeotec believed the latest SS6 firmware, 1.04, would fix the issue however so far it hasn’t as yet. I will update if/when things change. I am working with the dealer, and they’re actively working with Aeotec about these failures.
