Hi,
Here’s my setup:
- Home Assistant running in a VirtualBox VM on a Windows 10 host
- Conbee II USB with Phoscon app running natively in Windows 10 (I had problems using the Deconz add on)
- Philips Hue Dimmer (RWL021)
I built a few automations using the Home Assistant GUI so that I could turn on the living room lamp (IKEA Trafri) with one press of the ‘on’ button, and the ceiling lights (3 x Lifx) with a second press, the ‘off’ button performing the reverse. The dimmer buttons are configured to adjust the brightness of whatever is switched on at the time.
This works really nicely a lot of the time, but sometimes the automations fail to trigger when I press the buttons. When I use the event listener subscribed to ‘deconz_event’, I can see that every single button press is being registered (and pretty much instantly). However, they are reporting event codes of ‘1002’ and ‘4002’ for example, while the automations I built with the GUI are based on triggers such as this:
domain: deconz
platform: device
subtype: turn_on
type: remote_button_short_press
I’m wondering why these triggers aren’t activating when the dimmer continues to report event ids.
Any ideas? Thanks
