Gateway integration

Modified on Thu, 14 Nov at 3:03 PM


If the Gateway - platform that is used to connect devices could integrate based on the device's data, there will not be need to wait for new firmware updates of the gateway - platform. The Z-Wave gateway (platform), when programmed correctly, are able to flawlessly integrate any device. This is because all the necessary information is already stored in the device's firmware. However, this integration approach is only used by a very few gateways.


When we tested these few selected gateways, the Shelly Wave devices worked perfectly once added to them. We did everything we could from our side to make it work. Unfortunately, most gateways, prefer their own custom methods of integration. This means users have to wait for the right update, and sometimes even another one after that, to make a Z-Wave device work correctly.


We kindly request that you get in touch with the gateway developers to include the integration of these new devices. They've chosen to follow a different path of the recommended one, and it would be helpful for everyone if they could adapt the integration process accordingly.
