ADC and Qolsys have official lists of supported z-wave devices. However beyond that list there are a number of other devices that ‘work’. This thread contains those devices that I’ve tested and the outcomes of each.
Please add to this list as you uncover more devices that just work with ADC and the Qolsys panels.
Be sure to include which panel you have, and if the device is multi-channel; does multi-channel control work in both the IQ panel and in ADC.
On the IQ 4 panel, the device is recognized as 4 switches.
In ADC, it is recognized as 4 switches and 4 remotes.
Since the intention is for this to be a scene controller, triggering scenes with the remote actions in ADC does seem to work. However the switches only really show the state of each of the scene triggers on the Shelly. (They don’t actually control anything as there are no relays in this unit) Which I suppose can be useful depending, but largely it should only have appeared in ADC as a remote and not a switch at all.
The biggest issue is that this is an unsupported device, and as such you get the “Issue Detected” popup on the IQ 4 at all times, which as you know displays over the picture frame screensaver. For this reason alone I wouldn’t recommend using it. I find that error box useful when there is a real issue, so for it to be up there constantly I wouldn’t know when there was a real issue to pay attention to.
Additional Note: This device works perfectly in Home Assistant, so it is one of my go-to solutions there, to detect relays closing in foreign systems and display that status or trigger an automation in home assistant based on what the i4 senses.
This ultra small, low voltage works great with the IQ 4 and alarm.com.
Tested direct association capabilities, naming, and control - all successfully working.
As a bonus the device appears as a scene controller (remote) to alarm.com which allows for an expanded number of uses, as it will accept six different triggers from the switch terminal to trigger scenes.
(Note: the LZW31 is out of production. This is an older model.)
While listed on the alarm com (ADC) compatibility page, this dimmer does function with the IQ 4 and ADC ecosystem with the following limitations:
No Scene Control. Dimmer does not show up as a Remote (Scene Controller) in ADC
No Power Monitoring. Power monitoring appears to be supported by the switch, but it does not appear on the IQ 4 or in ADC.
No ability in ADC or IQ 4 to programatically (via Automations or Schedules) send parameters to z-wave devices. As such, the true value of the LED bar cannot be realized.

A significant strength of this switch is its built in z-wave association groups for multi-tap actions on the switch paddles! This allows for multiple direct associations to take place directly from the switch itself, minimizing the need for the IQ or ADC to be involved in scene control depending on the use case. However full ADC scene control functions well.

Zooz ZEN20 Smart Power Strip: Partial Functionality
This device did rather well in the ADC/IQ 4 testing. While it falls victim to some ongoing limitations with multi-channel z-wave devices, it performed better than expected, IMHO.
Chief Limitations are:
Power monitoring is per strip, not per outlet
Z-wave direct associations FROM the strip to other devices doesn’t work.* (but associations from other devices TO the strip do work.)
USB charging sense actually appears in IQ4 panel, but you can’t do anything with it in ADC or automations/notifications
I have this up and running now on my personal IQ 4, and it is working very well. I even have individual outlets being controlled via direct association from individual Zooz ZEN32 Scene Controller buttons.
Here’s the video on the testing process. (This covers the Z-Box and Home Assistant as well.)
My biggest compliant is how power monitoring gets summarized at the strip level (instead of individual outlets) in ADC. But overall power monitoring in ADC is extremely limited and terrible. [There’s a future video for sure!]
