This release includes several more fixes and workarounds for the problematic interaction between some controller firmware bugs and the automatic controller recovery introduced in the v12
release:
- Added a workaround to recognize corrupted
ACK
frames after soft-reset of controllers running an 7.19.x firmware or higher. Previously this triggered the unresponsive controller detection and recovery process. (#6409) - When the response to a
Send Data
command times out, the command is now aborted, instead of retrying and potentially putting the controller in a bad state due to not waiting for the command cycle to complete. When this happens, Z-Wave JS no longer attempts to recover the controller by restarting it, unless the callback is also missing. (#6408) - When the callback to a
Send Data
command continues to be missing after restarting the controller, Z-Wave JS no longer restarts itself. Instead the old behavior of marking the node asdead
is now restored, as the node being unresponsive/unreachable is most likely the actual problem. (#6403) - In addition, the
Send Data
callback timeout has been reduced to 30 seconds and ongoing transmissions are now aborted before reaching this timeout. This should limit the impact of the controller taking excessively long to transmit, especially in busy networks with lots of unsolicited reporting and end nodes expecting a timely response (#6411)
