Convert to Hubitat Generic Component Child Devices

Open apwelsh opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Any plans to convert from custom child devices to the Hubitat Generic Component Child Devices? Doing so reduces the number of custom device drivers to install on the HE. If willing, I am happy to begin the process for various devices one-at-a-time.

We actually have already done this for the Gen 2 devices. Are you talking about the Gen 1 devices?

I guess it was the NZW30 and NZW31 (both w/scene since the firmware update). I did not realize that this was done for Gen 2 but not Gen 1 devices.

Yeah, it has been done for Gen 2 devices. You'll notice that I left the old child methods in the parent driver so that it will work with both the Inovelli child devices and the Hubitat ones. That way, if someone updates the parent, things will still work for them.
