OpenHAB console started to write this message:\r\n\r\nNODE 10: BATTERY LOW!\r\n\r\nBut I didn't have a new battery replacement, so I ignored it because the device was still working... However the device stopped working about 4 days ago.\r\n\r\nAs the batteries are pretty expensive, I ordered a pack through Amazon and decided to switch the battery with another Fibaro door device (one that I don't use very often) in the meantime. That battery was 85% full so I expected the dead door sensor to work again, but it didn't.\r\n\r\nI have restarted OpenHAB and the computer several times. I have switched back and forth the batteries to test that it wasn't a matter of battery power, and it is not. I have used the \"Heal Node\" and \"Reinitialise Node\" in Habmin, but it does not seem to do anything meaningful.\r\n\r\nNow the node is marked as failed. It appears RED in Habmin and OpenHAB consoles writes\r\n\"NODE 10: Is currently marked as failed by the controller!\"\r\nif I press the \"Reinitialise Node\" button in Habmin.\r\n\r\nThe device turns on the blue light when I open or close the door, so the device works, but it is communicating with OpeHAB.\r\n\r\nI don't know what to do, because I had a similar problem last year, and I tried to reset the Fibaro sensor with a magnet (following the indications of the user manual), and reinclude the node but I ended up creating a mess with duplicated/ghost nodes that didn't work, and I had to send the Fibaro device to the seller, reset the controller and reinclude the rest of devices. The seller said the device was in \"inconsistent state\" and he had to factory reset using the \"Fibaro Home Center\". \r\n\r\nI don't own the Home Center, and I shouldn't contact the seller because I don't think the deice is failing.\r\n\r\nWhat can I do to make the device work without creating the same mess I created last year?\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/openhab/openhab/issues/comments/168518515","html_url":"https://github.com/openhab/openhab/issues/3696#issuecomment-168518515","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/openhab/openhab/issues/3696","id":168518515,"user":{"login":"SkynetHome","id":12680502,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/12680502?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/SkynetHome","html_url":"https://github.com/SkynetHome","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SkynetHome/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SkynetHome/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SkynetHome/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SkynetHome/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SkynetHome/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SkynetHome/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SkynetHome/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SkynetHome/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SkynetHome/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-01-03T17:09:32Z","updated_at":"2016-01-03T17:09:32Z","body":"Excluding a device through habmin should always be fine, the above method could be problematic if inadvertently put the z stick in exclude mode manually and then move about your home interacting with devices. This will remove each devices as you wake up or in the instance of wall switches sometimes just turn on and off. I think best bet us to exclude the problem device in habmin then follow zstick manual instructions for re inclusion."}}
