doorlock CommandClass - openHAB item not notified

[rolo2130]

I'm having an issue with the state update commands sent to my openhab switch item.

[2017-04-28 13:05:46.113] [I] [core] Notification: warning (module): Observer not notified - openHAB item: zway_zwayDevice_192_168_2_144_6_doorlock_ZWayVDev_zway_6_0_98 (HTTP Status: 400 - Bad Request - State could not be parsed: close). Failed request: http://192.168.2.164:8080/rest/items/zway_zwayDevice_192_168_2_144_6_doorlock_ZWayVDev_zway_6_0_98/state with body: close
[2017-04-28 13:05:46.134] [I] [core] openHAB item not notified FrontDoor_Lock

My item definition is:

// front door
Switch FrontDoor_Lock (Doors) {channel="zway:zwayDevice:192_168_2_144:6:doorlock-ZWayVDev_zway_6-0-98"}

It seems that the SWITCH item will only accept ON or OFF as a state, not open or close. I tested this via the rest API and was able to reproduce the error. This issue prevents updates to my openhab item via Z-Way and eventually cause my openhab item state to change to UNDEF. I'm new to posting to git so feel free to request info. Thanks.

This device type requires a different type: Contact instead of Switch.

Please follow the description if Items are created manually.

Thank you for your response, and thank you for the work you have put into the Z-Way binding. It is the core of my automated home :). In reference to my post, I tried changing the item type to CONTACT prior to posting, but the result was the same. After your post, I tried again. I changed my OpenHab item to the following:

// front door
Contact FrontDoor_Lock (Doors) {channel="zway:zwayDevice:192_168_2_144:6:doorlock-ZWayVDev_zway_6-0-98"}
I then reset my bindings through the karaf console and checked the Z-Way server OpenHAB Connector to make sure the observer was still present. It was listed as 'unknown', but it was registered. I changed the state of the lock from the Z-Way server via the SmatHome UI. The result was the same. Below is the z-way-server.log entry.

The below image is a snapshot of the OpenHAB connector on the Z-Way server.

Changing the OpenHAB item to CONTACT prevents control via my OpenHAB sitemap. I would guess this is correct behavior as a CONTACT is an input device and by default should only read status. In addition, I reviewed the documentation prior to implementing the Z-Way binding and assigned the SWITCH item as referred to in the documentation. See below snapshot from the Z-Way Binding documentation for reference.

Let me know if you need any additional info. Again, awesome job on the binding and thank you for the time you put in.

Thanks for the hint. I was wrong. I updated the Z-Way App (openHAB Connector) and loaded a new version (0.1.5) into the App Store. Can you try the new version please. Many Thanks!

[rolo2130]

Awesome!! I will test today and let you know how it turns out.

[rolo2130]

Great Job!! I updated the OpenHAB Connector to version 0.1.5 then restarted the Z-Way binding on my OpenHAB server. All Z-Way items successfully registered. I then sent a few commands to the Front Door lock. The OpenHAB COnnector successfully notified OpenHAB of the change. See the log snapshot below.
