setValue failing for me

[elnulo]

Working on Raspberry Pi2
I see this value get updated:
value = {"value_id":"3-38-1-0","node_id":3,"class_id":38,"type":"byte","genre":"user","instance":1,"index":0,"label":"Level","units":"","help":"","read_only":false,"write_only":false,"is_polled":false,"min":0,"max":255,"value":99}

However, when i do:
zwave.setValue(3,38,1,0,25)
I get:
TypeError: setValue: OpenZWave valueId not found

any ideas?

[elnulo]

bumping... hoping somebody has some ideas here.

[elnulo]

What i meant in the first part of the question is: When I connect i see a callback telling me a value changed. From what i can see it means node 3, class id 38 instance 1. I can't see what setValue is expecting.. any ideas would help.

Hi there,
I'm in the same situation.... on a RPI2 I keep getting TypeError: setValue: OpenZWave valueId not found when calling setValue()

Here is the detail of my device

Then in my code :

zwave.setValue(2,37,3,0, true); // << Throw error...

[GuillaumeNachury]

@elnulo I changed quite a bit my code and I got it working. I switched to the object syntax and made sure that the data aren't strings.
zwave.setValue({nodeid:parseInt(nodeId),class_id:parseInt(comClass),instance:parseInt(instance),index:parseInt(index)},value);

Hope it'll help.

[elnulo]

that ws it!!! thank you.

root cause finally found: it was a silly typo, see #63

[ekarak]

Hello all,
I've just pushed a fix in a new bugfix branch. Can you all please download this branch and test it?
Apologies again, this all was due to a silly typo (I was checking for 'nodeid' object property, not the correct 'node_id').

Thanks!

[ekarak]

@elnulo please note that the changes in this branch will break your code. Does the bugfix accept plain old valueid's as in zwave.setValue(2,37,3,0, true) ?

I'm sorry, I'm still encountering this issue.
I've cloned the master branch.

I've tried several identified solutions.
// zwave.setValue(5,38,1,0,50); // zwave.setValue({node_id:5, class_id: 38, instance:1, index:0}, 50 ); zwave.setValue({nodeid:parseInt(5),class_id:parseInt(38),instance:parseInt(1),index:parseInt(0)},50);
The "as checked out" test2.js fails.

What am I missing?

[ekarak]

Do you have a Zwave node numbered 5 to begin with? Can you paste any logs that might be helpful in assisting finding what's wrong?

[cmmh]

I do have a node 5 ... but it wasn't a dimmer. I changed it to node 3, which is as follows:

`node3: Linear, PD300Z-2 Plug-in Dimmer Module
node3: name="", type="Multilevel Scene Switch", location=""
node3: class 38
node3: Level=1
node3: Bright=undefined

node3: Ignore Start Level=true
node3: Start Level=0
node3: class 39
node3: Switch All=On and Off Enabled

node3: Load Sensing=false

What other types of logging are desirable?

Thanks

[ekarak]

I suspect you're having troubles because Node.JS is booting up an older version of the addon somewhere in your system. Try running locate openzwave_shared.node to find any references to old versions and them remove them before reinstalling the current version.

Also, there's a typo in your command (should be node_id, with an underscore) and the parseInt's are not needed anymore. The command should read:
zwave.setValue({node_id: 3, class_id: 38, instance: 1, index:0}, 50);

[ekarak]

@cmmh is your issue resolved?

@ekarak I am having the same issue. I have however narrowed it down a little more. setValue does not seem to work for most my nodes that are single digit. My light switch that is node 9 fails, but 10-13 work great. I am on version 1.2.0
