the 1000 had z-wave at the beginning but was removed by logitech at a later point since they were either unable to properly implement it or simply did not have the resources ... or maybe it was just a marketing thing.

895 should work with other z-wave devices, if it's not pairing then the best thing would be to get in contact with their second level support team for help. try upgrading the firmware in safe mode, could just be a firmware problem ... or it could be some environmental issue, or even as bad as defective z-wave on the remote. if you are just using an rf extender, the remote and extender should pair automatically during the update without you doing anything else.
