KitDevice.json and KitDevice_Variable.json

From what I can tell KitDevice and KitDevice_Variable, is where you ultimately want your z-wave devices listed, as that means Vera will do more of the heavy lifting…

If you have something that’s not listed/supported then you seem to be on your own, however there’s potentially still hope as @therealdb showed…

Add it via the Generic Z-wave option and then use the manufacturers manual and trial an error to get somewhere.
