Release Notes

Revision as of 21:49, 19 April 2010

Unreleased fixes

1. [Bug 739]: Fix an intermittent problem with 'handler not found' error when trying to access the smartphone or WAP plugin

2. Fix an error with pan/tilt buttons on a camera not working

3. Add support for the Kwikset ZWave lock's built-in scheduling

4. Improve configuring a Schlage lock. We discovered a 'hidden' configuration setting you can use to get all the user codes states at once rather than polling each code individually as per the official ZWave spec.

5. Correct the reporting of lock/unlock on the Schlage deadbolt. Previously if a lock or unlock was sent to the deadbolt and the deadbolt reported it was executed OK, Vera assumed the lock was really locked/unlocked. Now we use the alarms from the lock instead so the state is always accurate.

6. Fix so the include/exclude mode when triggered with the physical buttons stays on indefinitely.

7. For advanced users, add capability to send door lock NONCE's with ACK by adding the UPNP variable urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:ZWaveDevice1/NonceACK=1

1.0.979 - October 24, 2009 - final beta

All known issues of stability and memory leaks have now been resolved. The infrared and INSTEON/X10 modules are also fully functioning. The next couple weeks we will closely monitor the forums and trouble tickets to see if there are any lingering issues and then issue a release candidate.

Fixes:

0. IMPORTANT: The concept of method #1 and method #2 for programming scenes into scene controllers and handheld remotes no longer exists. The 'Treat Scenes as Events' checkbox is no longer used. Now, to assign a scene, select the scene, click 'Add Event', choose the scene controller or handheld remote, choose the event 'A Scene is Activated', and pick the scene or button ID, such as 3 for button 3 on a scene controller. Any Up/Down or Off buttons now work fine, plus you can add thermostats, door locks, and other non-scene devices to a scene and Vera will still trigger them. So with release 979, it's all automatic and you no longer have to make a decision for method #1 or method #2, and there is no longer a sacrifice with one method over the other. The ZWave_Add_Controller page has been updated.
