Unofficial support list of Z wave devices for Qolsys Iq Panel 4 -

Zooz ZEN56 RGBW Dimmer

This module allows for RGBW strip control, and operates on 12-24v DC.

Verified working in IQ 4 and ADC !

The primary issues were as follows (but in all cases I do not think these were issues with the ZEN56 itself):

• The IQ 4 panel does not have the ability (that I could find at least) to set the color directly on the panel (but you can in the ADC app/website). This is more of an IQ 4 limitation than a limitation of the Zooz ZEN56 as far as I know.
• Colors seemed a little ‘washed out’ like too much ‘white’ was being called for, but it may have been the strip I was testing with (I also found a workaround for this*)
• The ZEN56 includes some built in light shows, but only via a parameter set, which the IQ / ADC ecosystem doesn’t support setting via an automation or scene, so unfortunately not easily usable*

This module also supports expressing each of the RGBW channels separately as different z-wave endpoints via a parameter change. That feature was also tested and works find in the IQ 4 and ADC. While this worked as expected, some limitations in the way ADC handles lighting control may make this a challenge to use depending on use case.

Control for RBGW LED strip lights compatilibilty - Zooz ZEN56

I understand it’s not officially supported, but I was wondering if anyone has tried using the ZEN56 controller with an IQ Panel. RGBgenie also has a z-wave RGBW controller but it’s about twice the price. It would be fantastic to have dimming and color available through the ADC app and not have to use different remotes for each section of strip lighting around our house.
