Installing Z-Wave Stick Gen 5 on Windows IoT Core
I am currently fiddling around with Windows 10 IoT Core on a raspberry Pi. I wanted to use Z-Wave to be able to control a Fibaro Wall Plug (http://www.fibaro.com/uk/the-fibaro-system/wall-plug)
But I could not find the Z-Stick that was on the supported hardware list of windows iot core
so I bought a Z-Wave Aeon Labs Z-Stick USB Controller - Gen5.
the following steps will explain how to get it working for windows iot core
Step 1
Download the drivers here: http://aeotec.com/z-wave-usb-stick/1358-z-wave-drivers.html
step 2
Connect to tou you raspberry e.g. \\freyr\c$\Data\Users\Administrator\Documents
and unzip and copy the drivers
step 3
connect using powershell
[freyr]: PS C:\Data\Users\Administrator\Documents>
