Hello All,
I am hoping someone on here can help me get this figured out. I have a Z-Stick model ZW090-A and two smart switches model ZW096-A02. I have included the 2 switches into the Z-Wave network through the stick. I ran the IMA from Aeotec and the two switches and the stick show up. I downloaded homegenie, but can't figure out how to communicate to the switches through the stick. Is it possible? Do I need yet another piece of hardware? I thought if I bought a stick, plugged it into my computer, ran some software (homegenie), I would be able to turn my switches on and off, or monitor the power that I'm using. I can't...I'm at a loss right now. I don't want to get a raspberry pi. I just want the stick to communicate to the switches and have some program with a good UI to where I can schedule on and off or monitor power usage. Does't seem to be too much to ask :) On the homegenie side....I have went to Configure->Settings->ZWave Interface Options to try to add nodes, but the stick won't let me because it's plugged in. So how do I add the stick and the switches to homegenie? I also try to add a group and click on the energy monitor but I don't get anything that helps me with my Z-Wave switches and the stick just keeps doing it's thing in the USB port.
I like to think I am pretty smart and can figure most things out, but this has truly stumped me. Can someone help and walk me through what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks ;D

Hi,
Yes it's possible and the association seems to be fine.
To be sure, can you choose in "Configure->Settings->ZWave Interface" the port of your ZW096-A02 ?
Bye
