Ikea e1743 button

geidorei · January 5, 2022, 9:48pm

Has anyone been able to get this work?

I have tried a few blueprints all to avail. All showing up in Zigbee2MQTT, no issues there.

Just trying to get it to switch on an Ikea smart plug.

Have tried:
Controller - IKEA E1743 TRÅDFRI On/Off Switch & Dimmer
[Z2M] Generic Ikea Remote Control

Blueprint config with [Z2M as follows:

Any help much appreciated folks.

My ikea e1743 buttons work nice, but I don’t use blueprints.

example:

- id: '1567689190101'
  alias: bedlicht aan
  trigger:
  - platform: mqtt
    topic: zigbee2mqtt/ikea_button1/action
    payload: 'on'
  action:
  - data:
      entity_id: light.light_ikea1
    service: light.turn_on
  mode: single
- id: '1567689190102'
  alias: bedlicht uit
  trigger:
  - platform: mqtt
    topic: zigbee2mqtt/ikea_button1/action
    payload: 'off'
  action:
  - data:
      entity_id: light.light_ikea1
    service: light.turn_off
  mode: single

Hi again - apols delay, things got in the way…

This is what I have moded your code to - obviously doesn’t work lol as not sure at all what to put in the MQTT line?

- id: '1567689190101'
  alias: Turn On RockJam
  trigger:
  - platform: mqtt
    topic: zigbee2mqtt/sensor.rockjam_button_action/action
    payload: 'on'
  action:
  - data:
      entity_id: switch.rockjam
    service: switch.turn_on
  mode: single
- id: '1567689190102'
  alias: Turn Off RockJam
  trigger:
  - platform: mqtt
    topic: zigbee2mqtt/sensor.rockjam_button_action/action
    payload: 'off'
  action:
  - data:
      entity_id: switch.rockjam
    service: switch.turn_off
  mode: single

And entities from HA are as follows:

Any help appreciated…

Install mqtt explorer, click your button and see what mqtt action is sent

Hi - dont know if u can help with this but cant connect to 127.0.0.1 - cant find any solution online. Keeps saying disconnected from server.

HA is running on a Pi BTW.

Hi don’t worry about above, as have manged to monitor via MQTT settings - when monitoring events only one event showed when I pressed ‘0’, nothing more showed no matter how many buttons I’ve pressed. I’ve checked status in zigbeemqtt, health good and LQI. No idea now lol.

Don’t use 127.0.0.1, use the ip of your HA.

Hi - MTQQ Explorer shows nothing at all, correct IP entered. Port is still same 1883 isnt it, or am I being stupid?

You need something like this:

Hi - many thanks for the reply - thats what I had… I installed on laptop and it worked, came back to main PC still nothing, reinstalled it and voila! No idea, I blame gremlins…

However, still not showing up when I press any button, no events showing. All okay on MQTT, as below.

Any ideas on this… ???

Think I’ve found the issue, my CC2531 needs a firmware update: IKEA Tradfri Dimmer (E1743) not sending "key presses" · Issue #4198 · Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt · GitHub^Text

The next job!
