How frequently do Z-Wave devices update their status? I unplugged some plug in ones hours ago and Composer still shows them all as Green saying online when they physically are not.

Basically the subject, I have 3 plug in outlets that I added fine, then unplugged them to see how frequently the status updates.  That was 2+ hours ago and they all still show Green in Composer and online.  I've rebooted the Controller/Director and same thing.  Is there a way to manually refresh, or how long does it take a device being offline for before it realizes it's actually disconnected from the mesh?

the online offline features of a driver only work if it is programmed to do so. the only check may be that it has a good address if it does its online.

I'm not referring to a driver, I'm referring to "Available Devices" where it shows all the Nodes you've added to the mesh.

When you add a device to the mesh and hover over it, it says "Network status: online".  On some devices they show "Network status: offline."  If I physically unplug an outlet, it stays green saying "Network status: online" forever, where other devices do change yellow and say offline.  But half of them never update. 

Like in my screenshot, you can see this one Z-Wave Node a Leviton Outlet, it says "Network status: online" and stays device status is ready, and shows a green icon, yet it has been unplugged from power since yesterday.

My statements above still stand. it is possible it will never change. deleting the device should remove it from the list as expected.

I'm referring to Z-Wave nodes, not drivers.  The nodes are not even bound to a driver, so any feature of a driver should be irrelevant.   If I did this same exercise with a Zigbee device (physically unplugging a Zigbee Z2IR from power), the Zigbee page in Composer eventually would show "Offline" on the device, and 0% for the signal until it's plugged back in.  That does not occur with Z-Wave, instead you physically unplug a Z-Wave device, and under Nodes in Composer it shows it green/online forever.  My question remains, I was asking how frequently this updates or refreshes, as I unplugged a device more than 24 hours ago and Composer still shows it green and online under nodes when it's clearly not.

I know that you do not understand but my statements still apply. whoever wrote that driver may not have included those features.
