Dimming module paired but not usable.

[MrBishop]

I have a HA-06WD and got it paired not problem with the almond+ however it's adding it as unknown device and it give me a pull/set option of 0-255 but that's it. Does anyone have any suggestions for getting this thing working correctly?

You don't get a list of options to chose from when you add it?
Who makes it?

This would be a Wayne-Dalton supposedly, except they are a garage door company. Searching their site I found reference that these items were made by a separate company that is now called HomeRun Holdings Corporation (support is supposedly at www.GDOsupport.com but I could not find anything). The HomeRun company website has not been updated since 2011 so I think it reasonable to assume these are old stock items.

Oddly enough this Z-Wave dimmer is for incandescent lights (or halogen) only. LEDs will not work with it.

Please send some logs and maybe they can fix it. No guarantees if the product is no longer for sale.

Sorry for the long delay, It seems to work with my LED's fine, other then i'm having issues getting it really dim. But that's an issue with the bulb I am going to order a new one designed with a dimming chip. However all I get is a range value option of 0-255 and when I try to set it it lowers or rises but doesn't do anything on either the dimmer or my app. It shows up only as unsupported device and I know it's an older module but it's zwave and I know the Vera people get good results so I figured it might be workable.

Also sure thing, which logs do you need; sorry haven't been around the forums very long i'm used to DD-WRT.

Go to Help, Send Logs in the LCD UI, tap Send Logs and do a FAO Satya and type in the device name and if you want, a short explanation.

Well that is good news about the LEDs. Hopefully the rest will be able to be worked out.

Logs sent with the model in the description and the problem, hopefully it's not to much of a hassle. I appreciate anything you guys do. I would love it if we can get these working with my home.

Just thought I'd let anyone interested know that I've gotten some Feit Electric dimmable LEDs (Flood light style for recessed lighting) and while using only one or two works, because this switch has a 40W minimum to operate correctly I'd only suggest using these where to plan on using 3+ lights on one switch like a living room, not great for small rooms. This LED is rated at 13W and 2 did a decent job, when I get my other lights installed I'll see if that fixes this annoying slight flickering when adjusting the light. But I fear that might be the actual switch. Still a great find considering my basement is 2-wire only and these were $15-20 a pop.

This is an update, the Dimmers work, but can't turn the lights off; it sets to zero and it gets fairly dim, but not off. I think it's a physical design flaw though. there is a switch for power to the switch on the bottom below the rocker and I think it's a dim only over zwave kind of design. Which explains why they discontinued them. Very disappointing but it's still got uses in some rooms. Guess i'll have to go back and see if I can find something decent for my bedroom though, I was relaying on using the lights to improve my alarm clock experience. I guess it could be a software issue, not sure but that little power  switch just doesn't make sense if it actually can turn on/off over zwave.
