Alternatively, use [Domoticz](https://www.domoticz.com/), which incorporates the Open-Zwave Control Panel project into an easy to use Raspberry Pi image. The reasoning for using these tools is that your Z-Wave controller stores the values and data that are used to control the network. The XML file in the `.homeassistant` configuration directory acts as a settings/values cache for the Z-Wave network, so modifying it directly won't change the network values. The [Open-Zwave Control Panel](https://github.com/OpenZWave/open-zwave-control-panel) writes values directly to the network and will provide you with an updated `.xml` file to overwrite in your `.homeassistant` configuration directory. This is the most foolproof way to make modifications to your Z-Wave devices. -Although totally normal for your Z-Wave stick (Aeon Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5 for example) to cycle through its LEDs (Yellow, Blue and Red) while plugged into your system.
