Multiple issues with ZNet Lite v2 - is this a beta product?
Posted: Fri Mar 17, 2023 9:45 am
Hi there.
I've used Telldus products for quite a few years now. FIrst the original tellstick, then the telltick v2, and now the ZNet Lite v2 for a few years.
For a year or so the ZNet Lite v2 worked fine, as least after what I recall, but for the past 1-2 years there's been multiple issues, most of them are z-wave related.
Let's see:
Z-wave:
-All of sudden the Cleverio wallplug also shows a line voltage of 20.1V.... Connected to a 230/240V line. WHAT?
-It all of sudden loses connection to z-wave devices (wallplugs etc) thats been working fine for a year, no apparent reason.
-It reports wrong (total) consumption (suddenly shows 76kwH instead of about 5000kwH)
-It reports wrong concurrent usage (claiming that one Cleverio wallplug uses about 80watts of power, even tho there is nothing connected)
-it reports wrong usage over time (spikes up to more than 22KW concurrent usage according to the graphs. Sure.... I'd really like to see a 16A wallplug draw 22 000 watts on 15A breaker.
-A few times I had to reset my fibaro wallplugs, as the ZNet completely lost connection to them, I believe this has happened once or twice for two wallplugs.
-Claims that even devices that has been returned to the manufacturer or moved 50km away is still sending data to the ZNet.... What?!
433mhz:
-The Znet all of sudden stops receiving data from 433mhz temperature sensors that has been working for months, even with Ok battery percentage.
-433mhz temperature sensors gets new ID every time the power is cycled and/or the battery is replaced. This was never an issue when using Tellstick v2 with HomeAutomation or just tdool --list from terminal
Now the ID's assigned seem completely unrelated to the home and device ID set on the device itself.
Web GUI:
-Quite often the timestamp are placed beneath the "tooltip"-thingy that displays the current value when hovering the mouse over the graph.
-CSV exports contains non human readable values.
