As far as I know you shouldn’t have to do anything with the device or driver.
@jmason888 it sounds like you have tried everything as far as what can be done in your setup. Maybe try escluding your z-stick from being a secondary and try to add the Inovelli into its own network with the controller and try from there. I have aborted many firmware updates and have never seen this so my guess is that you can get it going again.
Thank you @EricM_Inovelli, that did it. I guess I’ll chalk this one up to some gremlins in my Z-Wave mesh 
! Literally every other switch flashed fine (some slowly, some quickly) with the z-stick as secondary. For this one, it needed to be on a separate mesh with the z-stick as primary, and it needed me to sit with the laptop/z-stick right next to the switch, and it still took more than 20 minutes.
I guess this switch was tired of social distancing!!! But it worked… and I have 11 switches to flash (I’d have more if the Red Series hadn’t gone out of stock), and I’m glad I only had to dance the “exclude, include, and rebuild all my automations” dance with one of them.
What’s in the new 1.20 & 1.21-beta firmwares that were published
1.20 has a change that optimizes z-wave exclusion during mass production. This change is for quality testing after assembly.
1.21 has similar S2 inclusion optimizations for 700 series hubs that are in the dimmer v1.48. S2 inclusion works fine on the switch though so this update really doesn’t change anything. It was just to bring the code up to date between the dimmer and switch.
I was trying to install some switches in the new house before having any network and I set a couple up with auto off timers set to 1800s and 7200s. The idea was to delay timer off some lights when I leave the new house in the dark.
But, the switch parameters all reset to default when excluded from the network. WHY? I don’t want them left connected as dead nodes on my home automation in my current residence until the new house is finished and I move in.
I believe Z Wave Alliance protocols makes the switch factory reset when excluded from a network.
Yeah, that is part of the Z-Wave 500 SDK. You would have to connect them to a different controller & set the configuration parameters and not exclude them afterwards.
How do I tell what firmware is on my switches? I have a Hubitat C5.
Thanks,
Mine doesn’t list anything except Switch: off
Which driver is assigned?
