Switched from Cooper RF USB (Pro) to Aeon Labs and Z Troller.. Now I have issues.

[thedishking]

Hello,

I have a Z Wave network with roughly 80 devices.

Everything was working fine, with the exception of the devices in my detached garage (9 devices out there) via my Cooper Aspire RF USB-Pro stick.

I have 4 Schlage door locks along with 5 other lighting modules (running 5.02 for beaming) running on the Schlage gateway as well.

I wanted to get everything into HomeSeer, so I transferred primary to the Aeon stick (using another laptop running Z Tool).

Since I had trouble optimizing in HS Pro, I did the optimize in Z Tool (selecting a few devices at a time, then adding) until everything but the Garage was included.

I had perfect control and status of everything in the house (not adding the door locks just yet).

I added a Z Troller in my garage, via a Lantronix (Serial over IP) and I cleared and reinstalled the 9 devices in my garage to that network.

I could then talk to either network via Z Tool (selecting the proper interface, Aeon on Com 15 for house, Z Troller on Com 16 for garage.)

I believe I made a huge mistake - I added a second controller into Interfaces, and it did not seem to poll the devices when trying to add under tools.

I found, under tools, I believe it was called "syncronize".

This is where my problems began, now I have two primary controllers; Aeon is Primary Controller 1 and Z Troller is Primary Controller 2.

It does not show any devices under Aeon, but it does show devices under Z Troller.

I cannot control anything....

Do I need to start from scratch?

My goal is to have everything into HomeSeer, to eliminate the Schlage controller (at least as Primary, but I understand the locks need to be on Schlage as the primary controller)

I do like the idea of having two controllers - Aeon in the house and Z Troller in the garage for extended Z Wave range.

Thanks for any help you can provide...

I've gone back to the Cooper. It is FAR superior in range and reliability to the others....

Holding off on Schlage integration for now.

Very odd as the Z-Troller "generally" has significantly more range than the sticks.
