Z-wave issue??

[HAL_MAN]

I have been using Z-wave (Homepro Models) successfully with HAL for nearly two years. I recently purchased 3 HA05 Intermatic outdoor screw-in lamp modules to install in my exterior lights. I can successfully find/discover the modules in HAL and I can turn them off using HAL. But I can not turn them on via HAL only using the local control. I tried all three modules with the exact same results. I am using a homepro usb controller which can successfully control all my other homepro switches and a bunch of intermatic HA02 Appliance modules with no issues. When I send the on command I do see the led blink on the HA05 and I see the "on node" command being sent from HAL but there is absolutely no response. Yet I can consistently turn it off via HAL. I tried multiple bulbs and multiple lamps.

My only thought is maybe an incompatibility with the HA05 and the homepro controller.
So maybe I need to change to the HA22 for zwave control. I am at a loss here. I thought it was an open standard which would seem it should work with any manufacturers controller.
Anyone out there have one a HA05 working with a homepro usb zwave controller? Any other ideas?


Thanks in advanced,
Shawn

Shawn,

What other software have you tried? I haven't had any troubles with the HA05s... Your ACT USB controller should work fine.

have you tried to move the modules closer to the usb module to see if they behave the same?

Thanks for the reply Chris. Unfortunately I do not have any other software to try (unless you wanna give me a trial copy of control think just to verify? ;-)). I just ordered a handheld remote and a HA22 just to verify if the problem is indeed HAL, the ACT controller, or a faulty module(s).
Also I am testing a lamp within three feet of the controller. And that fact that I can turn it off via HAL tells me there is good communication between controller and module.

Thanks for the suggestions/info,

Shawn
