Ecolink Flood/Freeze sensor

Hi,

I purchased an Ecolink Flood/Freeze sensor because it should solve two problems I have with a single sensor. It is a Z-wave plus device that has a remote water probe, a 5 year battery, and will sense when the temperature drops below 5 Celsius. It also senses case tampering and battery low and nearly dead. My first chore is to get it to sense water. I synched it with Indigo 7.1.1 and got this (edited for brevity):
Code: Select all
 Z-Wave                          Syncing - assigning return route to "005 - Leak - Ecolink w/ remote"
 Z-Wave                          Syncing - retrieved protocol version 4.38, app version 10.09
 Z-Wave                          Syncing - retrieved class hierarchy: Routing Slave : Notification Sensor : Notification Sensor (04 : 07 : 01, base 00)
 Z-Wave                          Syncing - retrieved command classes: 20v1 80v1 84v2 85v1 86v1 30v1 71v1 72v1 73v1 59v1 5Av1 5Ev1
 Z-Wave                          Syncing - retrieved encrypt commands: - none -
 Z-Wave                          Syncing - retrieved capabilities: routing, battery, beaming, waking
 Z-Wave                          Syncing - retrieved battery level of 99%
 Z-Wave                          Syncing - complete
 Z-Wave                          sent "Leak - Ecolink w/ remote" status request
 Z-Wave                          received "005 - Leak - Ecolink w/ remote" status update battery level 99%


I then put the probe in water and Indigo didn't indicate anything (State stayed at Off). The Z-wave debut output is:
Code: Select all
Z-Wave Debug                    RCVD requestAlarmSensorStatus: 01 10 00 04 00 05 0A 71 05 00 00 00 FF 05 02 00 00 68
Z-Wave Debug                    . .  requestAlarmSensorStatus: node 005, endpoint None, cmdClass 71, type 0, value 0, classSubKey 710000
Z-Wave Debug                    . .  requestAlarmSensorStatus: typeExt 5, valueExt 2, classSubKeyExt 7100000502
Z-Wave Debug                    RCVD requestBinarySensorStatus: 01 0A 00 04 00 05 04 30 03 FF 06 3A
Z-Wave Debug                    . .  requestBinarySensorStatus: node 005, endpoint None, type 6, value 255

Taking the probe out of water I get:
Code: Select all
Z-Wave Debug                    RCVD requestAlarmSensorStatus: 01 10 00 04 00 05 0A 71 05 00 00 00 FF 05 04 00 00 6E
Z-Wave Debug                    . .  requestAlarmSensorStatus: node 005, endpoint None, cmdClass 71, type 0, value 0, classSubKey 710000
Z-Wave Debug                    . .  requestAlarmSensorStatus: typeExt 5, valueExt 4, classSubKeyExt 7100000504
Z-Wave Debug                    RCVD requestBinarySensorStatus: 01 0A 00 04 00 05 04 30 03 00 06 C5
Z-Wave Debug                    . .  requestBinarySensorStatus: node 005, endpoint None, type 6, value 0


Is there some way I can adapt Indigo to recognize this device?

Re: Ecolink Flood/Freeze sensor

Sorry, this post apparently slipped through the cracks here.

I've added this module to our list to add definitions, but in the mean time you can catch the raw messages shown in the Event Log using the Match Raw Packet trigger type (after selecting Z-Wave Command Received) from that Trigger dialog. And then choose your device in the From popup menu. For triggering on water detection try a Match Bytes field like this:

* 0x71 0x05 0x00 0x00 0x00 0xFF 0x05 0x02 *

And to detect when it is dry again use:

* 0x71 0x05 0x00 0x00 0x00 0xFF 0x05 0x04 *

Re: Ecolink Flood/Freeze sensor

Indigo 7.3 (and 7.3.1) are now available and should support the Ecolink Flood / Freeze Sensor (FLF-ZWAVE5).
