Title: Everspring Door Bell
Post by: Richie1972 on March 04, 2015, 09:57:04 PM

I've just got into home automation and have a zwave door bell with an aeon s2 usb stick.
In order for Homegenie to detect a bell press I am having to set the poller to 1 second. This is quickly draining the doorbell battery.
I am very new to homegenie so I'm wondering if I am doing it the wrong way round; is there a way for homegenie and/or the aeon s2 to listen for the doorbell sending out its zwave signal on a ring?

You should definitely not poll battery-powered devices, for the reason you are seeing. If you go into the device's Z-Wave settings, do you see an area for associations? If so, adding a Node ID of 1 should cause it to notify HG.
