I noticed a sale on Zooz ZEN51-LR relays but wanted to find out if the ZWAVE LR (Long Range) update to the device affects or breaks the existing indigo integration with the new ZEN51 LR, in other words, will the new ZEN51 LR work but just not support LR.
Support for the original ZEN51 within INDIGO was added in release 2022.2 but INDIGO documentation does not mention the LR designation.
I’m trying to come up to speed on the new ZWAVE LR capability but the sale will likely end before I can fully understand the ramifications that the LR could have.
From what I have read ZWAVE and ZWAVE LR work across the same network and in order for LR to work both the device and the ZWAVE hub must be updated for LR. I know the INDIGO hub does not support LR (at least I think it doesn’t) but I wanted to check in to see if the LR update to the ZEN51 breaks any functionality with INDIGO as it stands now.
ZWAVE LR seems to be a huge update —from max node count (updated to 4000 vice 232 for original ZWAVE) and the range for a working LR network is a mile.
If anyone knows of any issues please let me know and if there is a section on this forum for ZWAVE LR please let me know so I can come up to speed.
Thanks in advance…
