Hi,
I am interested to buy bought the Aeotec Doorbell 6 ( ZW162 ) but i am wandering if the volume of the bell can be modified at Zwave JS level because this is not documented in the documentation " Zwave-JS Config DB Browser" … https://devices.zwave-js.io/
Please , any user of this doorbell can clarify ?
Thank you
Hi,
Im using Z-Wave JS to MQTT with Doorbell 6 and the complete configuration is available in the control panel (including volume settings):
Yes, the default volume will be provided as a number entity in HA.
I just got my ZW162 Aeotec Doorbell 6 and it has ben included successfully in Zwave-Js integration (without MQTT)
The tone and volume configuration is unavailable in the control panel of Zwave-Js ( without MQTT part here ).
Is it something possible with the Zwave JS integration ?
Thank you
EDIT : Entities created ( 8 doorbells = 8 endpoints/sirens as per Aeotec Engeniering Specification )
=> Tampering = Endpoint 2
=> Button 1 = Endpoint 3
When hitting the button #1 , an event “Doorbell 6: Siren - Siren active (3)” is present in the logbook so the doorbell is working fine … except the siren sound which is too high
I am able to configure it. Using the Z-wave JS control panel:
And then the volume is configurable in Sound Switch
And I’m using Z-Wave JS to MQTT
Do you not see the “Default volume” entities present in your screenshot? I do… and they are all set to 1.0 which is max volume. The range is 0.0 to 1.0, set to 0.5 to set half volume, etc.
Thank you @zero for your solution but I am not using the MQTT control panel
@freshcoat , this was the solution .
Thanks for your help
Did you solve this volume issue, without using MQTT?
I´m not using MQTT either, and cannot call the correct volume using this script code:
- service: siren.turn_on
target:
entity_id: siren.sirene_stue
data:
tone: 01 Ding Dong (5 sec)
volume_level: 0.2
volume_level does not work for an Aeotec Siren 6. You need to use the default volume entity that was mentioned previously instead.
I’m struggling with this myself. How does one use the volume entity in conjunction with the siren entity?
IE here’s my current action where I would want to adjust the volume:
service: siren.turn_on
target:
entity_id: siren.indoor_siren_6_3
Figured it out. For anyone else struggling with this, it appears the “Default Volume (n)” configs correspond to the “Default Tone (n)” presets that you can call.
In the example above, siren.indoor_siren_6_3 will use the tone you select in Default Tone (3) in and the Default Volume (3) the device config.
