Hardware Reported to Work

  • 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.

Notes
Wayne Dalton Wall Stat WDTC-20  ??   Nov 2008 Indoor Link Link
Has 2 inclusion modes: 1) press and release the bind button and the STAT will be included as a thermostat and works with Vera, 2) press and hold the bind button and it will be added as a binary switch for compatibility with old, non-compliant remotes. If it's added in the wrong mode, remove it and re-add it. Works great simple to use!
HAI Wall Stat RC-80BZ  ??   Nov 2007 Indoor Link Link
Shows up as Standard Thermostat in Vera, Hold button feature not able to control by Vera at this time. Priced above 200.00. Has internal setback programs. Works great.
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! Note:You need to set the thermostat to show the temperature, on its display, in Celsius degree in order to be able to receive "Set Temp" commands from Vera. This is no longer required in firmwares above 1.0.862 (luup)
Schlage/Trane Wall Stat Trane  ??    ?? Indoor Link Link
It's the same thermostat as the RCS TZ43 and it has the same issue: it's accepting "Set Temp Point" commands only in the measurement unit that is displayed on its screen. Note:You need to set the thermostat to show the temperature, on its screen, in Celsius degree in order to be able to receive "Set Temp" commands from Vera. This is no longer required in firmwares above 1.0.862 (luup)

If the device cannot be configured at the final location, move the device closer to Vera and try again (this device might require a direct connection to Vera for configuration).

ACT Motion Sensor ZIR000 / ZIR010
EU (ZIR010) or US (ZIR000)
Indoor Link Link Link Link

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 less of a minute (30 sec best) 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
Aeon Labs 3-in-1 sensor (light/humidity/temperature) MultiSensor
EU or US
Indoor/Outdoor Specs

Pair to Vera by using the push-button. Vera must configure it to work, and it can only be configured within 10 minutes of inserting the batteries.

See ExpressControls3in1
If the motion sensor does not work right after inclusion and configuration, remove the batteries for a few seconds.
EverSpring/Hawking/Home Manageables Door/window sensor SM103 6,2,9,1,0 EU or US Apr 2009 Indoor Link Link   Ap15e 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. NOTE: There is some confusion about the orientation of the sensor. The main sensor body has a back (where the intrusion is), a front (where the logo and LED is), and the 2 other surfaces, one of which has a curved edge, and the other is flat. The magnet needs to go against the flat surface. And the flat surface on the magnet should be as close as possible to the flat surface on the sensor, lined up in the middle so the line which passes through the LED lines up with the sensor.

Note: In case the inclusion/exclusion fails you should remove/reinsert the batteries from the sensor and within a few seconds the sensor should be automatically detected.

EverSpring/Home Manageables Humidity + Temperature sensor HM-TS001

Jan 2010 (requires version 1.1.0 or greater) Indoor Link Link   micasaverde Pair or unpair the device by tapping the CF button 3 times very quickly. Once it's paired and shows up in the UI as a generic device, press the CF button 3 times again quickly to make it wakeup and get configured. Then it will correctly be identified as 3 devices (combo device + temperature + humidity).

Aaron This device has limited functionality as a sensor. It can only be used to turn on and off a light directly by setting an association, which Vera supports. It does not fire events, so you cannot use it as an event on a scene.
Merten 4-gang radio transmitter, flush-mounted 506004 2,2,27,1,4 EU   Indoor Link   Ap15e Note: There is proprietary functionality here. Support will be added soon.

Merten Radio roller shutter push-button 5025xx, 5035xx, 5045xx 6,2,27,2,3 and 6,2,27,2,4 EU Apr 2009 Indoor Link   Ap15e Open/Close buttons work well, but slide bar does not work. GUI buttons do not work with Luup release 1.0.843 and 1.0.862 (fixed with Luup release 1.0.879).
Workaround: Use a Luup Scene with the following code:

local lul_arguments = {}

lul_arguments["newTargetValue"]="0"

lul_resultcode,lul_resultstring,lul_job,lul_returnarguments = luup.call_action("urn:upnp-org:serviceId:SwitchPower1","SetTarget",lul_arguments,6) Replace "6" with your device number, replace "0" with "1" for inverse action.

Duewi Radio roller shutter push-button 054368 6,2,51,1,0 EU Jun 2009 Indoor Link   Lutz Open/Close buttons work well, but slide bar does not work.

Some additional observations by Ap15e (Vera V1, firmware 1.0.979):
  • GUI button 'Stop' and corresponding UPnP service does not work.
  • GUI button 'Up' moves the shutter down, GUI button 'Down' moves the shutter up ...
  • After adjusting the running times even the slide bar seems to work!
  • I got a report from a user that the düwi device may fail due to interference from the shutter motor. In this case an additional filter is required (costs about 25 €/direction).
