GreenWave PowerNode - Disable blinking
Posted: Tue Dec 04, 2012 7:23 pm
I know there are a few people who are using the GreenWave device (1 port and 6 port) and one of the biggest irritation is the blinking of that darn green light! The green lights starts flashing when the Z-Wave controller doesn't communicate (poll On/Off/Watt/kWh/etc) to it in the last 2 minutes.
It is possible to extend this value to 255 minutes (disabling doesn't seem to work), which is a veryyyy good value to prevent the blinking in 99.9% of the cases. I did this as follows:
- Open DomotiGa
- What until the Z-Wave controller is fully initialized
- Go to the Tools -> Z-Wave Commander
- Click on your GreenWave Node
- Click on the "Config" tab (see attached screenshot as example)
- Enter "1" in the Param field
- Enter "255" in the Value field
- Hit the "Set" button
- That's all
