Hue Dimmer Switches - Support

Third party integrations
1

Hey

I appreciate your help as always. Here’s my problem.

I’ve upset the kids and missus and I need to resolve my issue to get out of the doghouse.

I cannot seem to get the Philips Hue Dimmer switches to DIM since using the Conbee stick and going via Phoscon.

The options via Phoscon are:

ON OFF

DIM AND ON

DIM AND OFF

Instead, I want to be able to reduce the brightness to say 35% (or any custom percentage) at bedtime when we read stories to our children, but I cannot seem to do this. The only option now is to use Google Home, which defeats the object of having dimmer switches.

It’s as if I cannot override Conbee to say dim the light rather than dim and off (so the light will dim and then power off)

Can you assist?

Folks - I have been directed here

So I will take a look at this tonight

That won’t work for you, you are using deconz not ZHA to integrate ZigBee devices into Home Assistant.

Try this instead:

Jeebus, thank you Burningstone. I will take a look

Do I have to delete the key assignment already set up in Phoscon?

Not sure if you can have both at the same time.

Hi just following up

I’ve noticed with the latest deconz update 7.0.0 has created an issue with this blueprint.

My switches will no longer respond to button presses and I have to restore my backup which takes me back to the previous deconz version

Has anyone else been faced with this issue?
