Need device definition for Fortrezz Flow Meter

I just had a Fortrezz shutoff valve, and flow meter installed. No problem including them and creating devices for them. The flow valve on/off control works fine, though it shows 'off' when the valve is open., 'on' when it's closed, no biggie.
It doesn't look like there's a device definition for the flow meter yet. I clicked the 'submit to indigo' button in the device's config tab a little while ago to provide the details. Currently, the only thing it reports is temperature (of the flowing water). Anything else needed from me to get flow data working?

Thanks, Joe

The ZWave command class configuration for this device is in this document:

Re: Need device definition for Fortrezz Flow Meter

Any possibility this device will be supported in the near term? I installed one for multiple needs, but most immediately to detect landscapers on my neighbors properties using my outside hoses while I'm away. Most other FortrezZ ZWave devices are supported. Perhaps wasn't a good idea on my part to assume this one would be included, but if there isn't a definition coming soon, is there a way I can implement my own?

Re: Need device definition for Fortrezz Flow Meter

Hi Joe,

I've looked over the technical docs for this one but would like to get some actual command data from you as it works, so can you:

1) Enable Indigo's Z-Wave debug logging checkbox (choose the Interfaces->Z-Wave->Configure... menu item).
2) Turn on a faucet in the house (force water flow).
3) Wait 5 minutes or so.
4) Turn off the faucet.
5) Wait 5 more minutes.
6) Copy/paste the Event Log window results into a reply for me.

Bumping isn't going to make it happen any faster... :wink:

:) Bump wasn't intended to make the device definition happen faster, but I was hoping to get a rough idea whether we're talking days, weeks or months. If it's the latter I will need to work on an alternate solution for the problems I installed the device to solve this summer. -Joe

Having a Fortrezz flow meter installed right now, along with Fortrezz shut-off value while having some other, needed plumbing done.
Looking forward to an Indigo update that will include this device.
