  • We strongly encourage users to list any and all products they tested and installed.
  • If a product works but you did not like it, please list it anyway. It may be the only product available to some users.



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

Wayne Dalton Wall Stat WDTC-20  ?? Nov 2008 Indoor Link Link Shows up as Standard Thermostat, shows room temp, as well as controlling HVAC
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!


Cameras

Manufacturer Device Type Model no. Version Date Purchased Location (indoor/outdoor) Specs Product Review Notes
Panasonic IP Camera BL-C131/BL-C30 all Indoor The Panasonic IP cameras work well with Vera. However, for unknown reasons, the Panasonic camera will not get an IP address on your LAN until you run the Windows software supplied with it. You do not need to install the software; just insert the CD and tell the camera to get an IP address automatically (DHCP). If you buy the camera from the Mi Casa Verde web shop we do this before we ship it so the camera will work out of the box. Mac/Linux users who buy the camera elsewhere will need a Windows PC to 'activate' the camera. Set the default username/password on the camera to: dceadmin and dcepass for Vera to detect the camera automatically, or, if you use your own username/password, add the camera to Vera manually and provide Vera your username/password to access the camera.

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)
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

Controller/Gateway

Manufacturer Device Type Model no. Version Date Purchased Location (indoor/outdoor) Specs Product Review Notes
Wayne Dalton Gateway WDHA-12R  ?? Nov 2008 Indoor Link Link Shows as Z-Wave controller, a pain to sync with Homelink car remote, able to associate with devices, but not through Vera yet. Can now turn on/off All Z-wave devices from car. This gateway is required for the 3-button remote sold by them. Translates commands to Z-Wave Scenes.
Cooper Wiring Devices Handheld Controller RFHDCSG 1.13 Nov 2008 Indoor Link Link Works well with Vera. Can transfer devices from Vera to the handheld but doesn't transfer device names. Also very expensive.
Leviton 1 Scene Controller LEVRZCZ1-1LX Unknown Nov 2008 Indoor Link Link Have had problems working with Vera. Finally, got it to pair with Vera but have not figured out the associations.
