#Z-Wave JS UI device shows ok in UI but not in HA

I have an iblinds v3 device in Z-Wave JS UI that is acting very odd and I can't figure out what happened or how to fix it. The device is a "HAB Home Intelligence LLC Window Blind Controller iblinds V3" - window blinds tilt. When I look in Z-Wave JS UI the tilt of the blinds is reported correctly (0-100), but when I look in HA the value is just Unknown, but the slider control in HA does work. I can't tell if this is a HA problem, a Z-Wave JS problem, or something else entirely. It appears that the actual numeric state isn't reported back to HA, though the controls work and I can move the blinds with HA or with the Z-Wave JS UI.

It's persisted over multiple ZWaveJS UI and HA versions, currently zwave-js-ui: 9.33.0 / zwave-js: 14.3.12, HA 2025.3.3. zwave-js is connecting to HA using the websocket. I've tried the clear retained / update topics tools for the device and there's been no change in the behaviour. I've removed the device and re-added it at some point and not seen a difference either.

Any suggestions on where I can look to troubleshoot?

#

Also - this is the only device that's not working, but I only have one of the iblinds devices.

Tilt is an attribute of the cover entity, not the state.

#

HA does not support tilt as a cover state yet.

But it used to work and report correctly. The entity is called "Dining room blinds_old Horizontal Slats Angle"

#

It's a slider entity and does change blinds themselves, but its value is always "Unknown"

Yeah that changed, it was incorrectly implemented.

I'll take a look, thanks
