Question Can someone give me a hint what this means?

This is when running the audit from the tools menu and the device is a schage Z-Wave lock on a steel door.

I have never gotten up to node # 95 much less 212. Most of the other devices get from 18 to 24 neighbors. but I would be happy if this one worked better although it is some better with the later beta's and now 2.4.

Displayed:
"Auditing node 32, Z-Wave Back Foyer Root Device 32

HomeSeer was able to send a frame to the node.
HomeSeer was able to query the node and receive information back from it.
The node's neighbor rating is: Acceptable with 6 neighbors.
Neighboring nodes to Z-Wave Back Foyer Root Device 32:
Z-Wave Z-Wave Interface Den Device 17 (Node 17)
Z-Wave Back Foyer Z-Wave Dimmer Switch (Node 18)
Z-Wave Hall Z-Wave Thermostat 21 (Node 21)
Z-Wave TV RM TVcontrol Z-Wave Binary Switch (Node 33)
Z-Wave Den Lindas Den Light (Node 35)
Z-Wave Back Foyer Light over back door (Node 38)
This node supports associations on the following groups:
Group 1:
HomeSeer (Node 1)
INVALID/MISSING NODE 212
INVALID/MISSING NODE 95
Group 2:
HomeSeer (Node 1)"

It means that your lock was once associated with nodes that are no longer a part of your network. Perhaps you removed and re-added them, but their old node IDs are no longer in HomeSeer.

Thanks for the response.

I guess a couple of questions.

The highest node count on Zwave I ever had was 39 and I noticed a couple that were removed a while back, Node 20 and Node 16 don't show up on the list so can I assume that the nodes 95 and 212 refer to something other than Z-Wave?

This is on a steel door so don't know if that may be confusing the issue.

Is there anyway to get rid of this, or does it matter?

Thanks for your help...Sonny

Sonny - they might be left over from testing at the Schlage factory, but they only refer to node IDs - there is nothing else they can be.

Perhaps there is some communication issues that is causing a false-positive that those node numbers are associated with the lock. The associations screen should tell you though.

To get rid of them, click the Associations tab from the device properties page for the root device of the lock, then click the red X icon next to them. It should respond that the association was removed successfully.

Gosh you're smart. That worked like a champ.

Learn something new every day.

Thanks ..Sonny
