Device configuration file problem

[HolBaum5]

Hello, I have a Z-TRV-V01 thermostatic valve whose config is not (yet) in the database.
I have put the config as described here (https://community.home-assistant.io/t/how-to-manualy-supply-z-wave-js-config-file-from-the-db/424393/9) to store/config.

I have taken the config file from here zwave-js/node-zwave-js#6542

But unfortunately I don't see any change in my overview - the device is still unknown. What could be the reason?

@HolBaum5 Try to re-interview your device. Also check in logs if the configuration is picked up correctly

First, make sure you restart Z-Wave JS UI so the config file is loaded. Second, the config file you've linked to does not match your device. Here are the PR values:

"manufacturerId": "0x045a"
"productType": "0x0000",
"productId": "0x0400"

Your productType is 0x0501, so the config will not be matched. If these are the same devices, either the PR you've linked to is incorrect, or there are multiple versions of the same device. For the former case, just change productType from 0x0000 to 0x0501. For the latter case, you'd need to append your variation:

	"devices": [
		{
			"productType": "0x0000",
			"productId": "0x0400"
		},
		{
			"productType": "0x0501",
			"productId": "0x0400"
		}
	],

Given the author of the PR says "I'm not sure which product type it is.", it might just be incorrect. It doesn't sound like they are actual using it this device?

[HolBaum5]

Thanks for the tip I will try the change and get back to you.

[HolBaum5]

This is what I read from the log file (below). Therefore, I think devices must be

	"devices": [
		{
			"productType": "0x0400",
			"productId": "0x0501"
		}
	],

0x0501.json

However, this does not seem to work.
I tried with productType = 0x0501 and productId = 0x0400.
I restart the Docker Z-Wave container every time.
How can I check whether my configuration file is being used and is correct?

Look at the start of the logs for some error.

[apella12]

I'm not an expert like the other commentators, but you haven't copied the file from the PR correctly (in the 501.json). IMO the $import needs to be the first line like in the PR. My lessor concern is the lack of a templates in the config folder, but I think ~/templates/ is okay based on what I have done in the past. However, if there are $import references as /templates/ those need to be added. Don't mess with anything in the PR except the Type:ID.

[HolBaum5]

Thanks for the hint with the log file, the following errors (see below) appeared there. After I corrected them, the device is displayed correctly. I will add the information in the PR as info.

Your file is not the same as the PR file. Seems like you downloaded the wrong version.

[HolBaum5]

Yes, you're right, I took the wrong version, sorry.
