Hi there, Ive integrated the zwave-js nodes in my flow. They work and a testdevice shows up in te Zwave pane at the right if the gui editor. One zwave node is configured to listen to the test device (node 2) and there are message caught with a debug node (all msg). Only thing is, i don't see any …

Update: I do get updates of values now (battery devices take more time to populate). So i could capture that, but it seems double as there is already a local store (cache).

Hello, I am the author of node-red-contrib-zwave-js. Q: hoe do i retrieve that info? Google gives me no examples or info. A: The values are provided as and when, your devices send the info. They are provided as an VALUE_UPDATED event. (most the time) - there is an event table on the main GitHu…

Hi Marcus, Thank you for reaching out. Yes, i've seen the value updated events. What I would like to achieve is that I can retieve any zwave values from the zwave-node element or the zwave controller element stored in cache, by sending a command like getValueDB(..., Node,..). Temperature, humidit…

Why not store the value in context using a change node ? Then you can retrieve it any time you like. (The basic concept of nodejs is to be event driven so only to report things when necessary rather than polling)

@tjarcoboerkoel , As suggested, you can store values in context storage, when your devices send an update, After all, the values are only sent via VALUE_UPDATED or NOTIFICATION events when they have changed, so fetching them again, will likely yield the same result. Addition: A simple example fl…

Could be an option, but it's not logical if there is already al local store with zwave cache. It is written that all requests getValueDB are not queried at the devicea, but are retrieved from Zwave cache. It's by design. So why should I add another caching mechanism to store all data? Cache holds …

Hi Marcus, Thank you for the flow. I'll take a look. Best regards,

It's a working Progress, but here is the wiki for each API CCAPI Wiki [image] CC API · zwave-js/node-red-contrib-zwave-js Wiki An extremely easy to use, zero dependency and feature rich Z-Wave node for Node Red, based on Z-Wave JS - CC API · zwave-js/node-red-contrib-zwave-js Wiki …

Hi Marcus, Yes, again thanks. This is exactly what I was looking for. Question, do I need to fill the complete valueID object, or is one enough (for example the property key). Best regards,

Hey! I think at the minimum - as long as it identifies the endpoint, CC, and key - it should work. Here is a hint: In the UI tab, double click a value. it will show you the ValueID [image]
