Logitech 890Pro

The Logitech Harmony® 890 and Harmony® 890 Pro had Z-Wave integration which was mainly designed to work with Logitech's Harmony® RF Wireless Extender. Although this device works well with typical Z-Wave devices, it's very tricky to include it within your home automation Z-Wave network. I found that by creating my entire Z-Wave network on the 890 Pro as the Primary Controller, then copying the Z-Wave network by including ThinkEssentials 2.4 as a Secondary Controller, that I could successfully control all my devices as I originally assumed. Here are my basic steps:

1. Follow Logitech's very cumbersome way to include it's RF Wireless Extender(s) into it's NEW Z-Wave network
2. Include all devices (Switches, Dimmers, Thermostats) using the 890 Pro as the Primary Controller
3. Use the "Add Secondary" option on the 890 Pro to include ThinkEssentials 2.4's ThinkStick as a Secondary Controller.
4. At this point you will see all your Z-Wave nodes within ThinkEssentials, you will then tell ThinkEssentials to become the Primary Controller. (From this point on, the 890 Pro will just exist and work with the existing nodes, any other nodes would need to be added to the 890 Pro and the process in ThinkEssentials would have to start over)
5. Add Vera as a secondary controller
6. Update Vera from ThinkEssentials, all nodes will be available in Vera, Vera will be a Secondary Controller.

I then added some other devices to my Z-Wave network through ThinkEssentials, another Leviton controller as a Secondary Controller and a multi-funtion motion/light/temp sensor. I then updated Vera as a Secondary Controller, works great!

If I didn't want my Leviton Secondary Controller in the mix, I would most likely attempt to switch the controller roles between Vera and ThinkEssentials making Vera the Primary controller and eliminating the need for ThinkEssentials.
