[APP][Pro] UnZ-Cure (add z-wave devices unsecure)

Add Z-wave devices unsecure Z-wave associations are a very important. The main reason is that if Homey isn’t working for some reason, the lights can still be controlled. As of version 7.0, Homey supports more z-wave security levels. That is great for locks and such, but not so much for z-wave associations, because associations need the same security level for both associated devices in order to work. As not all devices support the same security level, and Homey picks the security level based …

You can see that S2 devices communicates a lot compared to uncecured ones, and Tx error is quite hight at some.

I have 5 MCO Home MH7-WH included unsecure. Compared to other devices included unsecure, the Rx value is disproportionately high, e.g. 500 to 75,000. However, I have no Tx error.
