GoControl door sensor isn't recognized as one

I got my hands on a GoControl Security Suite In which there were two door sensors. The back of them is labeled WADWAZ-1 which I’m pretty sure makes it a Linear product. It installed into Vera with no problems but it was detected as a motion sensor. And its state is constantly triggered (open). I changed the subcategory to 1 and now most of the icons show up as a door sensor but it still shows a constant open (triggered) condition. I called Vera who said they were aware of this and it would be addressed in a future release. Of course.

In its current state I cannot use this device. In lieu of waiting for the next release does anyone have any ideas on what I could experiment with to see if I could get this working as a door sensor.

I can confirm that this now works with the latest UI7 update (1.7.1320)

I added the device as: Vision ZD2102

and made the following changes under Advanced:

device_type: urn:schemas-micasaverde-com:device:DoorSensor:1
device_file: D_DoorSensor1.xml
subcategory_num: 1
device_json: D_DoorSensor1.json

Didn’t even know about this firmware upgrade. I’ll probably do that this weekend and see what happens to the sensor. If necessary, I’ll apply your changes. Thanks.

I just got some of these and they’re driving me crazy trying to get them to work.

I’ve tried to let them install as you said (telling the Vera to install a ZD2102) and it sorta works. It is detected, but the Vera never completes it like normal. The 60 second detection thing times out. But then when I go back to the device screen, there’s a motion sensor there. And sometimes that works, but most of the time it’s stuck in the “open” state. I tried making the changes to the advanced settings, and then the icon on the dashboard changes, but it doesn’t work any better.

So I also tried just installing them as a “generic device” in which case they’re also identified as motion detectors and don’t work.

Yes, I’m on a VeraEdge w/ the 1.7.1320 update.

Anyone get this to work, I have the same Go Control door sensors that get stuck in an open state…

I’ve had a couple of these ‘stick in the open state’, as you said.

Changing the ‘Tripped’ variable to ‘0’ seems to reset them and get them functioning again.
