As the node created by Comfort is virtual it appears to Not support associations.
Homeseer does not have the facility to create virtual nodes.
Using Zone On and Off responses does not require a virtual Node in UCM/Zwave
It sends zwave commands to a zwave node
But if Homneseer is not able to create virtual node then this woll not work
It is one of the limitations with zwave due to the need for polling

Indeed - which is why, as I understand it, z-wave devices may be \'Instant On\'.I\'ll have to set the polling frequently enough to make it useable, but not too frequent that it swamps the network.
Can you send us your cclx file to support@cytech.biz
We may be able to try a special command which can inform the controller, but no promises that it willl work

On its way.
Thank you.
Sorry, after studying, what we waere thinking of doing will not work for zwave
You will have tyo depend on polling after all

Sad
Thank you for trying. Always happy to experiment if you think of something else.
Thanks to Slychui and the Comfort team. They have sent me an experimental firmware that shows the way to solving this problem. Now that is good support!
Thanks
Would  anyone else like to be able to update virtual node status to a controller without
being polled?
Any method that doesnt include the word \"polling\" has to be better IMHO!! 😊.

Can you maybe summarise the challenge and proposed solution in a single post as this thread has been bouncing around a bit.
