I have installed an MK Astral system. Most of the 20+ nodes have 2 channels, each node controlling two lights.

Today I included the UCM_ZWave3 into the system in accordance with pages 11 and 12 of the UCM manual.

However when I went to Z-Wave mapping, all of the switches were classified as "Basic", with the result that comfort can only control one of the switches at each two switch location.

UCM is version 6.019
Module info: Z-Wave 2.40
Controller type Bridge Controller.

Astral Primary Controller is LIB2U Battery Controller.
For information this Primary Controller successfully replicated dual channels to z-wave on Homeseer Technologies Home Automation software via an Aeon USB Zstick Z-wave secondary controller.

I have performed the following follow up with no result:

I replicated the Astral device (EXC-ASC) to UCM. No change in nodes or their properties.

I excluded UCM from system, reset UCM, and performed an "inc" again. No change. All nodes identified as basic.

I attach screen print which shows the properties of one of the dual channel nodes as "basic".

Any ideas?
