IMPORTANT! The devices listed here have been added by installers,technicians and users like yourself. Results may vary upon installations. MiCasaVerde does not guarantee operation and compatibility with your installation. The listed devices were found to work with their specific installation. Mixing different series and brands of equipment is not guaranteed in any way to work with other series and brands. It is very likely that users have not fully tested all features of the devices, so it is possible that a device listed here as compatible, will not prove compatible with your hardware. If you are editing this wiki DO NOT REMOVE a listed working device if it hasn't worked for you. Seek help to get the device to work under your individual circumstance. If you are adding to this wiki, please provide links to data for the device and add any tips you feel may benefit someone wanting to implement the device into an installation

RCS	Wall Stat	TZ43	??	Nov 2008	Indoor	Link	Link	Shows up as Standard Thermostat in Vera, much more feature rich the the WDTC-20 but comes with a hefty price tag ($214.95). Wish Vera could use all the features in this Thermostat!

Sensors

Manufacturer	Device Type	Model no.	Version	Date Purchased	Location (indoor/outdoor)	Specs	Product Review	Notes
ACT	Motion Sensor	PIR000 / PIR010			Indoor			Remove the cover, pair to Vera's dongle by using the push-button on the left of the circuit board. Vera must configure it to work, and it can only be configured within a few minutes of inserting the batteries. With Vera's dongle removed, remove/reinsert the batteries, and within 30 seconds insert Vera's dongle. Within a few minutes confirm the "configure" icon for the device is green on Vera's setup page
Express Controls	3-in-1 sensor							Pair using the blue button. The sensor will accept configuration within a few minutes of pressing the blue button, whether or not you are actually pairing or just pushing the button. So, with Vera's dongle removed, pair it or press the blue button if it's already paired, and within 30 seconds insert Vera's dongle. Within a few minutes confirm the "configure" icon for the device is green on Vera's setup page. This will show up as a device with 3 embedded devices (motion sensor, light sensor, thermometer). Be sure the configure icon is green, indicating the sensor is configured. If not, press the blue button on the side of the sensor which causes the sensor to wake it up for a couple minutes and accept configuration settings. Then, within a couple minute, in Vera's Web UI, click the '+' button next to the sensor and click 'configure right now'.
EverSpring/Hawking/Home Managemeables	Door/window sensor							Pair using the intrusion button. The sensor will accept configuration within a few minutes of the initial pairing, or of pressing the intrusion button on the back even after it's paired. Pair the device, or if it's already paired, press the intrusion button, and within 30 seconds insert Vera's dongle. Within a few minutes confirm the "configure" icon for the device is green on Vera's setup page

Door Locks

Manufacturer	Device Type	Model no.	Version	Date Purchased	Location (indoor/outdoor)	Specs	Product Review	Notes
Schlage	Door lock and deadbolt				Indoor			You cannot add these types of secure devices the normal way of removing Vera's black Z-Wave dongle. You must add them with the dongle attached, and the device must be within a few feet of Vera when you add it. Do this either by from the ZWave_Options page, or, if the door lock is already mounted, bring Vera near the door lock, plug Vera in so Vera is within a few feet, and use the red/black buttons as explained in 'Adding/Removing ZWave devices' here: Buttons_Indicators. This allows you to add the device without your web browser and without having to connect Vera's network cables. Note that even if Vera's network cables are not connected, the wi-fi is still active. So you can also connect to Vera over wi-fi, and visit http://192.168.81.1, to control and test the door lock without connecting Vera back up again to your home network.
