Hi!

How do I get my Zwave devices to connect to my Homey Bridge (satellite)? I have added the bridge to Pro according to the instructions and now see the device in Developer as homey:virtualdriverbridge:driver. But no Zwave units seems to use it as its repeater. Have tried to heal, but still no luck. Any tips and tricks?

The device itself select the routing path…you can use Heal functionality in the dev.interface for non-battery powered ZWave devices. Still the success rate is quite sporadic, eg. in my case Fibaro prefers Fibaro etc.
