Interesting find! Have you used this with InControl? How does it appear in the software and how does it trigger scenes or devices? Is it battery only or can it also be powered off the existing door bell wiring?

Yep - works great.
Shows up as a binary sensor same as a window sensor. Can trigger anything a binary sensor can. I have it triggering a script that plays an mp3 file when the button is pushed. Can also have it trigger an email / sms, flicker a light for hearing impaired etc..

It is battery operated but it has terminals that you can attach your existing doorbell wiring into it so it will trigger your existing door bell ringer and send a Z-Wave signal .
