Aqara Opple 6 Button Remote 3 bands (WXCJKG13LM) via Zigbee2MQTT [Z2M] (Remake)

FloppyD · December 6, 2023, 4:07pm

There are some automation blueprints for this remote, but they all have some minor errors and are not updated. So I got the best of all together, tweaked and modified. Credits in the Description.

I’ve updated the blueprint to work with experimental Z2M events available on the dev branch and planned for Z2M 2.0.
Events have to be turned on in Z2M first to appear.

Thanks for this! I have to remake my switches after the update to Z2M 2.0 and move away from the old “action” use. However when I try to use your blueprint, it just says:

Anything I need to do to allow the blueprint to see the Opple switches?

This ‘Home Assistant experimental event entities’ option is turned off by default, you need it on for events to be available:

Thanks @dawidxen , then I get the events I need! Worked
Question 2 - is there a good way to set up the “hold to dim” on lights? I’ve tried several setups, but I can’t get the brightness increase to repeat while the button is held… Have you done this?

dawidxen · January 6, 2025, 11:38am

Glad it worked.

Haven’t tried anything like hold to dim. What comes to mind is trying to utilize something like that:

Not sure if it’ll stop automatically when button is released, I dont have a way to test it out at the moment.
If it doesn’t then there’s a release event that could break the loop.

You might also want to add a delay after brightness increase so it doesnt happen too fast.

It might be relavent but I can’t get any actions to trigger on “held” items - actions work fine for single, double, tripple & release but not held.

Wonder if you are seeing the same that it’s not actually hitting that step?
