Leviton RZCS4-1LX scene controller problem

Community Playground General Discussions
1

I have a Leviton RZCS4-1LX (4 scene controller).

However, the Vera does the following:

Button 1 physically pressed (or via IR) - Vera does nothing
Button 2 physically pressed (or via IR) - Vera thinks Button 1 is pressed
Button 3 physically pressed (or via IR) - Vera thinks Button 2 is pressed
Button 4 physically pressed (or via IR) - Vera thinks Button 3 is pressed

For some reason the buttons are out of sync. Obviously I’d really like to be able to use the scene controller properly and have access to 4 scenes :slight_smile:

Is there a solution anyone knows of to fix this?

The RZCS4 and RZCZ4 used the following:

Scene 0 - Button 1
Scene 1 - Button 2
Scene 2 - Button 3
Scene 3 - Button 4

The VRCS4 and VRCZ4 use the following:

Scene 1 - Button 1
Scene 2 - Button 2
Scene 3 - Button 3
Scene 4 - Button 4

Can I access/detect scene 0 using Vera? Do I need to change the advanced settings for that controller as it defaults to scene 1 - 4 when added.

Thanks!

Ah, I got it working!

Rather than editing the scenes via the controller device options, I went via the scene itself and modified the event that triggers that event, et voila!

And thanks to ASIHome for the Scene 0 - 3 tip.

Wow, great tip on the scene controller configuration. I have been playing with the auto-generated configuration from VERA2, but it was a hit or miss; but manually creating the events directly into the actual scene is almost 100% reliable (if multiple buttons on the controller are pressed at the same time, the status might not update correctly).

If only the MCV wiki was a little better in terms of how the information is organized, things will be much better for all of us.

I have a few Leviton RZCS4-1LX scene controller that have an old firmware version. These are the ones with the press once for on, once again for off. So far the on works but the LED and off don’t. I have the latest Vera firmware.
Does anyone else find that they don’t have the off or LED control on this specific controller?

I have found a way of get around the off button not working by using Lua codding but I would rather like to see if I can get it working properly.
