Hi, I can’t connect my first z-wave device to Homey. It’s a [zwave.me](http://zwave.me) switch (2 wired). [https://www.robbshop.nl/wandschakelaar-set-everlux-z-wave-me-zmee05434-3727](https://www.robbshop.nl/wandschakelaar-set-everlux-z-wave-me-zmee05434-3727) The switch works manually, but I don’t get it connected to Homey. First of all, I can’t find the exact type id. The manual indicates 05434, 05462 and 05472. The app only shows 05431 and 05457. I tried both, but I get an error message after connecting “Something went wrong, try again later”. The distance between the switch and Homey is about 8 meters, open space. Also tried right next to each other, same result. Any ideas? Do I have to do/install something else first? Please help. Hans. ---

Hi Hans, Before adding to homey you have to reset de device first. You do this by pressing the on and off at the same time for a few seconds. While adding the homey close to device as possible. I use the zwave me app on homey ---

Tried all that. Reset shows a red and green blinking light, instead of fast red blinking as stated by the manual. Even with Homey on less than one meter, no success. ---

It is indeed possible that this type is not supported by the app. The following page is the official support page for the app. If you have any questions, just ask the question there or contact the programmer. > [@Zwave.Me app](https://community.homey.app/t/zwave-me-app/9089): > > This app supports most [zwave.me](http://zwave.me) devices, including rebranding like Duwi. [https://apps.athom.com/app/me.zwave](https://apps.athom.com/app/me.zwave) Supported devices Supported Devices [image] Keyfob [image] WALLC-S - Scene Switch [image] WALLC-S V2 - Scene Switch [image] 054336Z - [Z-Wave.Me](http://Z-Wave.Me) dimmer [image] 054336 - Duwi built-in dimmer [image] 05439 - Schuko plugin dimmer [image] 064394 - Schuko plugin dimmer [image] 05461 - [Z-Wave.Me](http://Z-Wave.Me) Double Switch [image] 064367 - Düwi Blind Control v1.3 [image] 054367… The inclusion of the first Z-Wave devices should be done as close as possible to the homey (a few cm!). If you have built a good Z-Wave mesh later on, actuators can possibly be included at a greater distance. Battery-powered devices **must always be included in close distance** to your home (a few cm!). ---

Thanks Dirk. I will ask. The website of Robb’s showed the Talks with Homey logo, so I made a logical assumption. Robb’s doesn’t respond to my questions until now. Maybe they will later. ---

Yeah, you’re right. Than you should be sure that the light switch works fine with Homey. I’m really curious what Robbshop has to say about this. ---

Hello hans. Have the same problem as you. Did you ever find a solution. I used the switch on homeassistant perfectly identification 100% but switched to homey and now failure in adding ---

Nee, nooit een oplossing gevonden. Bij Robbs erkenden ze dat het Homey logo er niet bij had mogen staan en ik heb hem teruggestuurd. ---

The [zwave.me](http://zwave.me) app needs to be rewritten to work with Homey v5, it is working with the last stable version. ---

Use dimmers from [zwave.me](http://zwave.me) for that reason. ---

Thats why i use homey because it can connect multi brands of one platform. This switch seems to be dropped out of the supported range
