Questions.

From the Alarm.com documentation, conservatively, the list would be quoted below:

"Light devices that do not require polling (real-time status)
When a Z-Wave light device is able to communicate its status to the controller immediately after being interacted with locally, its status on the User Website and app is updated right away. There is no limit to the number of light statuses that can display.

Supported devices include:

Jasco/GE:
28170 Lamp Module Plugin Dimmer
28172 Lamp Small Appliance Module
14321 Z-Wave In-Wall Smart Dimmer
14318 Z-Wave In-Wall Wireless Smart Switch
GE 14294 Z-Wave In-Wall Smart Dimmer
GE 12735 In-Wall Dimmer
GE 14287 In-Wall Smart Fan Control
GE 12729 Z-Wave In-Wall Smart Dimmer (Toggle)
GE 12722 Z-Wave In-Wall Smart Switch

Linear:
WD500EMZ5-1
WD1000EMZ5-1
WS15EMZ5-1
WS15Z5-1
WD500Z-1
WT00Z5-1"

Now, I’ve been trying to get some more details from the ADC development team with regard to these lists for a couple reasons:

  1. Many other Z-wave Plus devices by default send updated status to the controller immediately (including the Aeon Labs Smart Switch 6). ADC would need to be validating something else in the data if the panel is able to forward the status. Alternatively, there may in fact be earlier versions of some of the products which did not have that status parameter set by default.

  2. It was very heavily stated that Z-wave Plus devices were compatible with this, but some of the devices in ADC’s list aren’t Z-wave Plus. It is possible that this only applies to the newest revisions of that model (if the model now has the correct Z-wave parameter set by default out of the factory).

I’ll see if I can get some clarity specifically with the Smart Switch 6 first. Stick to the above list for new devices for now if status is primarily important.
