![]() i was and am still very annoyed that it doesn't actually control/monitor the door. i think i associated a scene with a switch and a basement screw in module. i actually had it associated to other lighting controls if i remember correctly, not just from a remote and the keyfob. i wanted to test it out and see how it plays with the network. i did wind up getting the package as you see from the 2nd quote. i did a search from my old posts and here are some of them below. ![]() i have a nice long review on accessha as well as the hawking forum but the forums are gone now. This is going back a bit but i have used the wayne dalton z-wave garage conversion kit which is essentially the same thing. Is there any software out there that recognizes the Zwave opener? I've been messing with Windows Home Server and CQC as well.Īs far as ThinkEssentials and the iDrive opener, I posted on the ControlThink forums, but haven't had a response yet. Fortunately, my home came with a security system with hard-wired door and window sensors, so that should be a big help. I've been doing a few months of research on HA, and will slowly start building up my solution. It "sees" the opener, but it is an unknown device. The TE software quickly recognized the switch, but would not recognize the iDrive opener itself. I also purchased the ThinkEssentials software and ThinkStick rather than a remote to learn the scenes. Per the instructions I purchased a ZWave in-wall switch (HA18C). I'd rather tie into the garage lighting anyway, as I installed four in-ceiling flourescent fixtures that out perform some crappy overhead bulb. The ZWave openers do not come with the lighting accessory, although you can buy it separately. The openers are super quiet and clean up the garage ceiling.Īnyway, I'm trying to get the lighting set up. Overall I am really happy with the doors and openers, so much better than the contractor grade doors I had. I recently installed two Wayne Dalton Series 9600 insulated doors, and two WD Zwave enabled iDrive openers.
