Will the ZEN30 Double Switch work with my hub?
The Double Switch works great with the following Z-Wave systems:
- Z-Box Hub (recommended for all Zooz products)
- Home Assistant (works best with device specific code, install here)
- HomeSeer (Z-Wave Plus or Z-Wave JS Front-End)
- Hubitat (2.1.8 release or higher)
- ISY
- openHAB (2.5.1 or higher)
- SmartThings
- Wink and Wink 2 (no advanced settings, add as Generic Z-Wave Switch)
The Double Switch will also be recognized by any open systems which support dimmer (multilevel switch) device types. If your hub is not listed above, please get in touch with us before buying the device to avoid the hassle of returns.
Will the device work with my alarm panel?
-
It will be recognized as a single switch. You will not be able to separate control for the dimmer and the relay, it will be displayed as a single dimmer.
-
Alarm panels like Alarm.com will typically only support single switches, door locks, select thermostats, and any authorized items on their list. We would recommend reaching out to your alarm panel company to verify compatibility and to get the latest on any device integrations they may be working on.
-
It would be up to your alarm panel to integrate the ZEN30, as the device follows Z-Wave protocol and has been Z-Wave certified. There is nothing we can change on our end to have the Double Switch be recognized correctly; Alarm.com would have to support the integration. Read more about alarm panel compatibility here.
Can I connect the device directly to my Amazon Alexa, Google Home, or other smart speaker?
-
No. Smart speakers like Alexa or Google are not equipped with a Z-Wave chip and are not Z-Wave gateway controllers.
-
Smart speakers are integrated with certain Z-Wave hubs, like SmartThings or Hubitat, which is how you can have voice control of your Z-Wave devices from your smart speakers.
-
Without a compatible Z-Wave hub, no Z-Wave products will function correctly with Alexa or Google alone.
