Title: Z-wave Motion Sensor: GoControl / Linear / Nortek / 2gig WAPIRZ-1
Post by: kevin1 on December 17, 2015, 03:57:47 PM

I purchased a $50 set (2 door + 1 motion) with this WAPIRZ-1 motion sensor but can't get it working.   They are also branded as GoControl / Linear / Nortek / 2Gig.  These do not appear to be in the pepper db from what I can tell.  http://www.nortekcontrol.com/product_detail.php?productId=1738 (http://www.nortekcontrol.com/product_detail.php?productId=1738)

Manual: http://www.nortekcontrol.com/pdf/manuals/WAPIRZ_install.pdf (http://www.nortekcontrol.com/pdf/manuals/WAPIRZ_install.pdf)

I was able to include it manually with the z-stick gen5 using the pinhole "program switch" on back of motion sensor.  Eventually I got HG to show the sensor node but it is not reporting any status, battery or temperature.  It has a tamper switch and the led stays on with cover off, but HG still does not see any data from it.

Reportedly works with SmartThings. Recognized as Aeon reporting temp or a custom device type:
https://community.smartthings.com/t/linear-wapirz-1/15930/6 (https://community.smartthings.com/t/linear-wapirz-1/15930/6)  Also reports that it works best as a Monoprice device type

Has anyone used these with HG? Any tips how to get it working? 

Thanks!

This device is getting closer but seems to be sending some message every few minutes (HG widget time updates) but not showing motion status.  On the net this has been shown to report temperature and appear as a Aeon.  it is node7 in attached log.  How does HG know to parse data from devices?
