Help with Honeywell T6 ZWave? Partial success.. (lemmy.world)

Hi All!

Recently purchased a Honeywell t6 Pro Z-wave thermostat, and a Zwave dongle to go with it.

I'm running HA in docker, so I spooled up the Z-wave JS UI in a seperate docker container as well. I then added the HA integration for Z-wave and got it talking to the ZwavejsUI

I can tell something went right because the thermostat shows up in the HA integration as "Node 2", but there aren't any exposed entities that have anything to do with thermostat functions; It shows things like "node status", "ping", etc.

Edit: It also shows up as a "unknown manufacturer" and product in ZwavsJSUI

So something is working... just not as a thermostat.

Any help? I'm a few steps away from returning it and just using a shelly relay to short the two wires together.

Great suggestions but it wound up being even more simple and even more stupid: Security keys. Writing a top level note for anyone after right now.
