What is happening?

Importing a Nortek Security WADWAZ-1 sensor into my Home Assistant system and while it imports fine, the external contact sensor on the WADWAZ-1 is not showing up in the template. Looking at the manual at http://www.gocontrol.com/manuals/WADWAZ-1-Install.pdf it looks like the sensor reports back a different alarm type for the external sensor contact vs the internal contact. I am using this on a gate and the gap was to big to use the built in reed contact so I used an external magnetic contact that was rated for a large gap like my gate. I had this sensor setup on SmartThings for a number of years and it was working fine. In HA if I look at the logs for the sensor I see it reporting a notification event for 0xFE which is the event type the documentation says for the external contact on the sensor. Its just seems like the z-wave js template for this device only works for the internal reed contact. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks

👋 Hey @cf-mp!

Thanks for opening an issue! It doesn't look like you provided a logfile though. While not strictly necessary for every issue, having a driver log on loglevel debug is required to diagnose most issues.

Please consider uploading a logfile that captures your problem. As a reminder, here's how to create one:

• Z-Wave JS UI
• Home Assistant Z-Wave Integration
• ioBroker.zwave2 Adapter
