I have Leviton On/Off switches that are in the Z-wave node list as unknown and even have working routes. I can test and switch them on/off perfectly from the node list. Is They even have a last working route. I have removed and added them multiple times and always get the same error. Is there a way to force a device to be identified as a Basic Z-wave device. If not can this be added.
I donât get it, what is the issue here? It seems to be working fine. âUnknown zwave deviceâ means nothing more than âHomey could not find a matching app for this device, so it is now added as a generic Homey zwave deviceâ
Of course Homey recognizes it as a OnOff switch, or doesnât it? Does Homey think itâs a thermostat, or speaker?
It probably would help, when you are willing to reveil the error message as well⌠?
It works fine from the Tools->Devices page on the developer site (on/off/test/test frame) and has a direct route from the Homey. It does not show in Wireless->Z-Wave or on the App. My wording was incorrect and should have been âunknown nodeâ.
Unknown device = Basic device
Additionally, when you want to use it in flows, you canât use the âappsâ section (while it uses no app), but youâll need to look up the device per âZonesâ and navigate to the zone it resides in.
Or just use the search bar.

#32: Leviton Dimmer (routes and can turn on/off from this screen
Neither are accessible from the App. I do not care about the dimming capability, but just want on/off which I know work.
Hmmm, unknown nodes probably donât have flowcards indeed.
Isnât it possible to repair those? Or re-pair without removing them prior to that?
Iâm not a zwave expert btw.
No flow cards as you guessed. Repair does not offer any devices up to repair. Message is âNo devices that can be repaired are available.â
I have unpaired and paired multiple times with the same results. It is unfortunate because these are Leviton switches that were expensive and match with the other Leviton switches in my home. It just seems weird that I can send on/off, test, send frame and all are good results. It would be nice if I could change it to be a generic Z-wave device.
Hoping one of the developers of Homey could step in and provide some insight as to how to work around this.
Hoping doesnât work, reporting your issue to support could work better 
Officially this is a users only forumâŚ
