Set up according manual, no complications. Review: Buggy firmware getting better as of 1.4, but markedy worse range in HA Yellow compared to USB ZST39 - I had high hopes for this module, to upgrade and replace an Aeotec Gen500+ USB stick in a HA Yellow (as it says its designed for). Migrating a 66 node network in HA JSUI directly, or via nvmedit convert. Early firmware versions caused lockups/transmit errors, and caused my perfectly functioning network to collapse, even close mains devices were unpingable/dead. Had to revert to Aeotec, and all was fine again. Tried more than 1 of these modules. Zooz support (very responsive and helpful) tried, but had no answers. Last ditch I bought the Zooz ZST39 USB stick and updated to v1.4 as well. World of difference!! The network came back up as it should, and lightning fast. My mesh has now recalculated and has less hops/more direct node connections than before. I'm now running 100% on the Zooz USB stick. I'm not sure if its because the GPIO is shielded by the HA yellow case, or if it isn't as good on transmit generally (although Zooz advised they are the same capability), but I had a disaster with the GPIO and total success with the USB stick, changing nothing else. I don't have a small z-wave network, but be warned on the performance. I'll be buying another ZST39 as backup and getting rid of the Aeotecs now. The GPIO 'may' be better if you only plan on using it with LR devices, yet untested by me. (use simplicity studio with usb to ttl adapter for GPIO) or update with no nodes added, or you risk bricking the device - happened to me. Zooz couldn't fix it). Check this before you do anything else, start with at least v1.4 before adding nodes. Looks like v1.5 of firmware will be released soon, and Silicon Labs claim all transmit lockups are fixed in that versions release notes. I see them rarely now on v1.4 and it's not bad like it was, so doesn't damage damage the mesh/automations reliability ## Features - READ BEFORE YOU BUY: The GPIO module is for advanced Home Assistant and home automation users only, NOT for beginners. You must be comfortable with programming and have expert computer and Z-Wave knowledge to use this device. - NEW 800 SERIES Z-WAVE LONG RANGE: Take advantage of the latest wireless innovation with Z-Wave Long Range that extends your network coverage up to a mile. NOTE: Your home automation software needs to support the Long Range implementation on the interface side as well as the end Z-Wave device you add to the network for the Long Range functionality to be fully unlocked. - WHAT YOU NEED: This 800 Series Long GPIO module adds Z-Wave Plus and Z-Wave Long Range capability to your DIY smart home set-up on a Raspberry Pi or Home Assistant Yellow hardware (sold separately). You'll need a home automation software of your choice (not included) to complete the system. - Z-WAVE SET-UP: Follow the detailed instructions from the QR in the manual to install your module and refer to the Home Assistant / Z-Wave JS documentation to set up your Z-Wave integration according to the recommended method. Supports OTA firmware updates and and all of the latest Z-Wave library commands. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BW4SRCXL | | Best Sellers Rank | 97,828 in Business, Industry & Science ( See Top 100 in Business, Industry & Science ) 154 in IO Modules | | Box Contents | 800 Series Z-Wave LR GPIO Module | | Brand Name | ZOOZ | | Color | Yellow | | Compatible Devices | ['Single-board computers'] | | Compatible Operating System Family | Linux | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (89) | | Data Link Protocol | Z-Wave Long Range | | Hardware Interface | USB 2.0 Type A | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 28L x 28W x 28H millimetres | | Item Weight | 0.03 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | ZOOZ | | Manufacturer Part Number | ZAC93 | | Minimum Required Operating System Version | Debian 10.0 Buster, Linux Mint 1, Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver | | Model Number | ZAC93 | | UPC | 853478006933 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** ZOOZ - **Colour:** Yellow - **Compatible Operating System Family:** Linux - **Compatible devices:** ['Single-board computers'] - **Data link protocol:** Z-Wave Long Range - **Hardware interface:** USB 2.0 Type A - **Item weight:** 0.03 Kilograms - **Minimum Required Operating System Version:** Debian 10.0 Buster, Linux Mint 1, Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver - **Product dimensions:** 28L x 28W x 28H millimetres - **UPC:** 853478006933 ## Images ![800 Series Z-Wave Long Range GPIO Module ZAC93 LR (Use with Home Assistant Yellow or Raspberry Pi) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/5158aemG5gL.jpg) ![800 Series Z-Wave Long Range GPIO Module ZAC93 LR (Use with Home Assistant Yellow or Raspberry Pi) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51p0DNvR0OL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works just as described. *by P***L on 27 January 2025* Installed to RPi5 for HA.
