💡 Awesome HA Blueprints: A curated list of blueprints + easily create controller-based automations (remotes, switches,...) for controlling lights, media players, and more

Hi @Filip_Kotian sorry for the late reply.
No, I abandoned the Blueprint, couldn’t fix it

marchano · April 3, 2022, 2:19pm

I’ve noticed the same, is there a solution for it?

mvk-wayne · April 24, 2022, 9:50am

Hi everyone. I am having problems for the configuration of controlers Ikea Trädfi and Philips Hue Dimmer switch. It is not working on zigbee2mqtt.

Am I the only one with this issue?

liminal · April 27, 2022, 2:52am

Yeah ok, so this is dead?

Its so weird, the guy puts so much effort into it, the blueprints, the doco. Then just abandons it a few months later. Strange!

Hope hes ok

Hi. I’m using the Ikea dimmer switch (E1743), and I absolutely cannot get it to dim the lights. If I add the controller blueprint, without any actyions, and then add the hook, i can turn the lights on/off, but dimming doesnt work. ?

Hi, I have the exact same problem with Hue dimmer switches. Yesterday I switched my Zigbee Adapter and had to re-pair everything. Thankfully the friendly_names were recovered, so it was not that big of a problem. But now my hue switches are not working anymore (the ikea and opple one have no problem).

I had this settings set already before the migration. So this should be set for all devices. Maybe someone else has a idea?

device_options:
  transition: 1
  legacy: false

EDIT: just some more information, they are connected to the network and i can see the click action in HA. The automation trace is the same as from @Jay-uk.

spn · April 28, 2022, 7:16pm

I think I have found the solution.

device_options:
  legacy: false

With this setting, all my actions had underscores instead of dashes. The blueprint awaits actions with dashes.
I have now added legacy: true to the dimmer switch and the dashes are back

mvk-wayne · April 30, 2022, 7:14pm

Where are you exactly changing these lines? I would try your idea

GrumpyOldSwede · August 26, 2022, 6:46pm

Long press doesn’t work on up and down any more, seems a bigger change is needed (as implemented in ZHA - IKEA four button remote (Styrbar) for lights (E2001, E2002) )

hey I‘m currently trying to setup my ikea tradfri using zigbee2mqtt. but i always fail at creating the lighting hook.

this is the error that I get:

the config of the hook looks like this:

and the controller config looks like this:

help would be really appreciated

Keroth · October 15, 2022, 8:22am

Me again after a night of not much sleep I think I fixt the issue by deleting all blueprints and reinstalling all of them.

BB9 · October 19, 2022, 5:51am

I can’t get long press to work either with IKEA E1743 TRÅDFRI On/Off Switch & Dimmer and ZHA unfortunately. Short press works just fine.

I can see that things are written to the helper during long press but it’s not performing the actions.

matthiashh · November 13, 2022, 11:45am

For ZHA I had to fix the blueprint to make it work. This is how the ZHA part of my YAML for the IKEA 1743 On/Off switch looks like:

    zha:
      button_up_short:
        - "on"
      button_up_long:
        - "move_with_on_off_MoveMode.Up_83"
      button_up_release:
        - "stop_with_on_off"
      button_down_short:
        - "off"
      button_down_long:
        - move_MoveMode.Down_83_bitmap8.0_bitmap8.0
      button_down_release:
        - stop_with_on_off

I still don’t get the double taps, but long presses work. It’s similar for the E1812 shortcut remote. It’s a bit unfortunate that @epmatt does not seem to maintain the repo anymore. It looks so promising.

matthiashh · November 13, 2022, 11:50am

And for completeness the updated blueprint to get long presses with the IKEA shortcut E1812 button:

  actions_mapping:
[...]
    zha:
      button_short:
        - "on"
      button_long:
        - move_with_on_off_MoveMode.Up_83
      button_release:
        - stop_with_on_off

As with the other one, I don’t get double-taps, but the long presses work at least.

Radulf · November 14, 2022, 5:23pm

Hello! I managed to get the ikea e1812 to work pretty well with zigbee2mqtt. Got the short/double and long press working great. I did my very first Pull Request
[Update ikea_e1812.yaml by ralphrtm · Pull Request #448 · EPMatt/awesome-ha-blueprints · GitHub] (don’t know if it will be merge soon).
Can someone try the fix and see if it’s working on your system? Thanks

TheCosmicGate · November 19, 2022, 6:48pm

did you solve this ? At the moment i’am having the same problem ( E1524 remote Z2MQTT)

Calzor_Suzay · November 20, 2022, 10:14am

I never managed to resolve the problem.

TheCosmicGate · November 20, 2022, 10:15am

Hmm ok that’s strange , this because they speak about this within the blueprint git themselves

TheCosmicGate · November 21, 2022, 8:06pm

Is there anybody who can lead me the way to solve this ? Or do I maybe need oneother blueprint?

liminal · November 26, 2022, 2:28am

Does anyone know why this would not work?

Curtains will close when holding down long press, but will not stop on release
