I have a Vera plus and some battery devices. Fibaro Door Sensors, hank scn-04 scene controllers and Fibaro Motion sensors(The little eye thing) and Vera have big problems with them all ... Lets get started:
I can take a whole night,
2-5 hours just to get the Vera to pair up with a battery powered sensor/magnes/remote controll. When i finaly succeed with the pairing, and starting to configure/changing parameters/associations it all starts all over, it takes several hours to get the device to take the settings, if they manage to get working at all! This is a true pain with all of the above listed devices.
Of Course i have the Vera close (maximum 1 meter) and i have read the manual, and wakes the devices up manually when messing with settings. BUT IT DONT WORK! I have been in telephone one time with the Vera support trying to add one of my Fibaro Motion sensors, and i think we talked well over an hour before vi got it to work, but no clear solution, just tried over and over again and suddenly it worked. So no really help there, just pure luck i guess - All tho the Vera support team is the greatest, il give them that
So, i guess my question is if this is normal behaviour? If not, does anyone have a clue how to get this piece of s*it to work? All this time spent on the Vera vill get me out of the marriage
Another thing, one of my scene controller (that i manage to get working - halleluia) i have made a association with a light bulb, they sit in the same room and it takes between 3 - 15 seconds before it reacts and sometimes it wont work so i have to press again and hope for better luck . I thought that using associations instead of scenes in Vera would be a fast and good way to control other devices? Is this normal or does it have to do with my Vera?
