Correct. The Sercomm hardware that is the Vera2 appears to know only the US and EU Z-Wave frequencies.[/quote]
My Australian Vera 2 has no dongle. It’s built in. I have plugged an Australian USB Z-Wave dongle into it though, and that works too.
Interesting; maybe they updated them?
Just curious, if you have SSH access, what does [tt]cat /etc/cmh/zwave_locale[/tt] return, when running without the dongle?
Interestingly, there is an Australian entry for the Z-Wave firmware in /mios/etc/cmh-zwfw now, too. It sounds like the Australian distributors have managed to get some baseline support for Z-Wave built in.
Also I see that an Australian retailer is advertising that they have AU frequency Vera3 and Vera Lite in stock.

It returns: au
I contact MCV about mid last year about the AU version. I wanted to know if it was a local mod or through MCV which it was. I have also asked them if the new Sigma ZM4102 forth generation was to be introduce into their systems. The new ZM4102, it full global coverage and thus, my question. What that mean is eventually all items will be able to be distribute globally… I did not get an answer to that question. Details can be found at http://www.sigmadesigns.com/products.php?id=19
Below was a response from MCV last year.
The Vera Australian version is only available from our Australian distributor.
