Controller reporting "Jammed" and then "Ready", operations hang #6512
Replies: 26 comments 122 replies

Every time the controller is unable to transmit (jammed), a few seconds earlier several of your power meters (46, 50, 58) are reporting the same power usage repeatedly. I'm relatively certain that this flurry of commands causes the problem. You may want to give https://zwave-js.github.io/node-zwave-js/#/troubleshooting/network-health?id=optimizing-the-reporting-configuration a read. |

Is there any news yet? We are almost at the last of April and haven't found a new FW yet. |

I bought 800 Zooz (ZST39 LR : before I had an Aeotec 700 and an Aeotec 500 before that) from UK with NA Region and RF, then contacted Zooz to get the correct procedure to convert to EU RF. By the way : to me seems that when jammed, physically unplug the stick help to stay away from the jammed issue for a more time compared to simple turn off zwavejs and turn on again. |

Completely agree ....
And silicon labs isn't responding on this.
They are promising to fix on the next release.... always.... always 'the
next'.

my controller is jamming 5-10 times a day, my network is basically unusable. I'm using the Zooz 800LR USB stick. |

The release notes for the latest SDK (7.21.3) mention a possible workaround:
@AlCalzone I only kind of understand the workaround. Is that something that would be reasonable for ZWaveJS to implement, something ZWaveJS is already doing, or something unreasonable/impossible for you to do? |

It appears Zooz has released firmware 1.30 for the ZST39 which is based on 7.21.3 SDK: |

Sounds like this workaround does its job then:
https://github.com/zwave-js/node-zwave-js/releases/tag/v12.10.1
Does this mean we should upgrade to 7.21.3 ?

Hi there, I'm new here and haven't worked with Z-Wave before, but just looked into the SDK Docs for SDK 7.22.1 GA, namely https://www.silabs.com/documents/public/release-notes/SRN14930-7.22.1.0.pdf Am I reading this right, that they just dropping support for the 700 Series Sticks and devices now?
This is insane. |

I've updated my ZST39 (using Silicon Labs software).
It seems good to me for now, but the system was updated only 12 hours ago,
so I'll need more time to be sure.
Anyway, it does seem more stable. Previously, when I was on 7.22.0 (SDK
1.40), I ran into "locked" states three or four times a day.
By the way, I experienced more issues on 7.22.0 than when I was on 7.19.0.
After the update, the Z-Wave JS controller status is always in an "unknown"
state.

… I received an email last night from Zooz saying that Silicon Labs had just
released 7.22.1.0 and Zooz now has a version 1.5 that supposedly fixes this
issue. In the SiLabs release notes
<https://www.silabs.com/documents/public/release-notes/SRN14930-7.22.1.0.pdf>,
it previously showed issue number *1227385* as *"The 700/800 controller
can lock itself up. The controller is not able to send acknowledgements and
the data transmitted is corrupted"*. Now in these new release notes
<https://www.silabs.com/documents/public/release-notes/SRN14930-7.22.1.0.pdf>,
that issue is listed as *"While the controller stability has been greatly
improved in Z-Wave Classic, the workaround implementation is still
recommended on the host side"*. Not sure why they changed the wording,
nor do I understand why that is still listed under known issues if it is
"fixed". However, under the list of fixed issues, you can find number
*1321606* which is *"Fixed an issue causing a controller to be locked in
a constant beaming pattern. The behavior was caused by an incorrect
configuration entered in the controller NVM"* which sounds like the issue
we were all seeing.
Oddly enough, while you can download the 1.5 firmware from Zooz here
<https://www.support.getzooz.com/kb/article/1158-zooz-ota-firmware-files/>
and this is the actual file link
<https://www.getzooz.com/firmware/ZST39_SDK_7.22.1_US-LR_V01R50.zip>.
Interestingly, their own release notes
<https://www.support.getzooz.com/kb/article/1352-zst39-800-long-range-z-wave-stick-change-log/>
do not yet list the 1.5 version or the changes. Still it's something.
Anyone wanna roll the dice and update to see if it is fixed??

Hi there,
I'm referring to 7.22.1 and the latest version of zwavejs (updated at the
same time... zwavejs 13.3.0). 🤖📱
So, it may be the firmware or zwavejs version.

Just to be more clear...

I don't have any automation based on the "zwavejs status."

I still see jammed events on my ZST39 w/1.50/7.22.1.... But they are fairly infrequent (maybe 1x/day). Not complaining, just reporting. I can live with that, as I really like the significantly stronger signal I get on my ZST39 vs my UZB-7 (5-6 dB across the board). I have 100 nodes on my network, 67 mesh and 33 LR. |

Today, I experienced some repeatedly jammed events. 😤
I needed to unplug the stick and reconnect it to get normal behavior. 🛠️

I'm on zst 39 ... from zooz
A way much better then the 700 from aeotec.
Can't say anything about 500 ... I've got one from aeotec and always got
random freeze.
As for today ... the zst 39 is my best stable setup. ( 7.22.1)

Yup,
nailed it!
Starting from SDK 7.22
3.5 - Deprecated Items

As of the 7.22.0 stack release, the 700 platform is not supported by the
Simplicity SDK.

Far as I can tell, Aeotec hasn’t dropped any Z-Wave 800 controller yet.
Maybe they’re still buffering or stuck in dev mode.

If I recall correctly, @AlCalzone, the developer of the Z-Wave JS app, has
confirmed this multiple times that migrating from 700 to 800 is definitely
possible using the Z-Wave JS backup-restore NVM function.
Avoid using "PC Controller" to do the migration, since that won't perform
the necessary conversions between versions.
Just for example , I've started my network on aeotec 500 chip, migrated to
aeotec 700 chip and then to zooz 800 chip

*Hopefully it won't take Zooz a year to put out the new firmware.*
Typically, it should take a couple of months or so.
Right now, I'm on FW: v1.50 SDK: v7.22.1, and I haven't encountered any
issues (or only very occasional ones).
I'm really satisfied with this release.
I'm currently managing around 100 nodes with no problems (mixed in No
Security , S0 and S2)

Checklist
I have read and followed the above instructions
I have checked the troubleshooting section and my problem is not described there.
I have read the changelog and my problem was not mentioned there or the fix did not work.
Describe the issue
What is happening?
I am commonly seeing my USB device (Aeotec Z-Stick 7 Plus) report being "Jammed" and then shortly after report being "Ready." Around this time, any operations will fail to occur and the system does not go back and "recover" from missed actions / automations.
What did you expect to happen instead?
Jammed status is unexpected.
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Under the Z-Wave integration, click the "xx devices" to list out all devices. Scroll to locate the USB Stick and click to open. Information will be in the "Logbook" section showing when it is Jammed and when it changes to Ready.
Anything else we should know?
The intermittent functionality was first observed around early- to mid-September of this year (I typically keep my system fully patched as they become available). It settled back down in about a week's time then re-appeared in mid-October. The impacts to the system vary, but the Jammed state is a constant occurrence.
I have done the following troubleshooting to date (in no specific order):
The problem persists with no change from any of the above changes / steps.
Software versions
Driver (node-zwave-js): ...
Z-Wave JS UI: 3.0.2
Home Assistant Z-Wave Integration: ...
Home Assistant Z-Wave JS Addon: ...
ioBroker.zwave2 Adapter: ...
If you are using something non-standard, tell us here: ...
I have no idea how to identify the others... I don't even see node-js in my list of add-ons.
Device information
Manufacturer: ...
Model name: ...
Node ID: ...
Checklist
I made sure to provide a driver log on level debug.
The log includes a re-interview of the problematic device (if applicable).
The log includes the problematic interaction with the device (if applicable).
I provided the node ID of the problematic device (if applicable).
