I'm trying to change the LED color for a button on the ZEN37 for the lower right button, but when I do it using NodeRed, nothing happens. If I attempt to do it from the device info screen, the dropdown will change to the selected color but nothing actually gets sent to the button to change anything.
Any advice?

I know how to wake it up, I was just hoping to get it to change on a single button press

I have seen some devices are listening while sending commands, if you send it quickly enough. Otherwise, it's not possible.

That sucks. Thanks for the help.

You'd need their hard-wired remote controller.

I live in a an old apartment that doesn't exactly support that kind of thing so I have to deal with remotes for now

You can try writing an automation that will set the LED when a button is pressed, maybe you'll get lucky.

I tried that and was confused on why it didnt work until you explained that those kind of settings don't get updated unless the device is awake

I have a couple of door sensors that when you open a door, if you're quick enough you can send a command as if it were awake. But I imagine that is not a common thing, certainly not part of the Z-Wave spec.
