Slave Controller : Aeon Labs Z-Stick
Answered
I really need to add this stick to my network (i've my own piece of software used to archive some meters of my network).
Is it possible ? The pairing wasn't successfull ...

It is not officially suported because Zipato is a system
that will capture and archive all values from your meters and every
other device in your Zipato network. All devices in Zipato network
contact directly Zipabox and report it's status to Zipabox so it is a
centralized system that will keep all your data in one place. For that
reasons maybe it is better to use Zipato insted of your software?
However
this stick should be normaly added as secondary controller if it is not
programmed in some specific way. Go to add device in general widget and
choose generic zwave.

Zipabox will do everything, but i have very specific task with my computer (automated aquarium) and before buying i thought that i'll be able to access some of my On/off switch via this slave controller...
Yesterday, i was unable to complete the join process with this stick : the zipabox wasn't detecting it (120s timeout although the Z-Stick 2 was blinking slowly in blue). But it was my first hour with a zipabox, perhaps i've done something wrong (but i think not).
I'll try again this evening and i'll keep you updated.

I'll try again this evening (perhaps trying to exclude it and reinclude it after a hard reset - if i can exclude it, since i'm not sure the zipabox will detect the button during the process of device removal..).

I'm a little confused because I could complete the joining process of my stick only once, since i was unable to remove my stick of the network for the moment (i'll try again this evening - hard resetting it doesn't exclude it from the zipabox).
In my memory, the zipabox "add device" processus is in 3 steps :
1) the zipabox search a device (120s timer)
2) The "device joined" message and you need to wait until the step 3 comes
3) You can close the windows (after a quick "saving device" step ?)
I'm almost certain that the process was blocked in the step "device joined". The stick's software was in a step 'wait for network configuration' or something like that. I waited something like 5min, then refreshed my browser : the stick was added, but my stick's software crashed.
Since that, the stick see a lot of nodes (12 nodes for the zipabox + the 2 nodes of my network?) but can't interact with my nodes and doesn't display there internal registers (or with false values).
My goal it to reproduce this step by step, with screenshot, to show you.
Thank you for your very good support.

It has a switch ON/OFF integrated(???). This switch appears in the Lights & Power Widget but seems to be ineffective.
The stick reports itself as a "slave" in his own software.
I think the zipabox doesn't send a required network description/topology during the process of adding a new slave controller.
Despite the quality of your box, having a slave controller increase greatly the robustness of the system. In case of failure of the power supply of the zipabox, for example, with a slave i can remotly and manualy access to my network configuration. I want to use you cloud system, it's why i bought you box, but i want to have an emergency solution too, just in case...

Is it possible to add new devices to the zipabox network with a slave controller like the z-stick. It would be nice not have to bring new device to the zipabox but use the stick to add them.
