IKEA RODRET Dimmer + SOMRIG Remotes - ZHA/Z2M - Control anything

MrBearPresident · December 8, 2024, 3:48pm

Did you also bind the levelCtrl?
I have this working for me.

iamnewtoautomations · December 8, 2024, 4:47pm

I did it like this. I want to control an Ikea 30W LED Controller

MrBearPresident · December 8, 2024, 6:10pm

You’re doing it wrong you are binding the state of the lamp - > rodret.
But you have to do it the other way around.
State of the rodret - > lamp.

I hope this is clear.

Fix for flickering dimming

If you experience visible flickering between the dimming steps while holding on of the buttons, there is a fix.
@damru I kindly ask you to consider integrating this in your blueprint.

Fix

Use the transition functionality within the light_on-change brightness.

Simply set the transition time to 0.2 and the brightness percentage to 3 and remove the delay block.

This results in a fast and smooth dimming.

Hi,

Would it be possible to paste the script here? Thanks

damru · December 9, 2024, 9:17am

Hey

Thanks for the suggestions
I removed the transition some times back but I’ll re-add it with the same value as the delay, this should smoothen the transition for lights that support it.
I’m considering removing the delay at once, but I have to run some tests as for the moment:

it loops too fast so the light “goes back to random %” instead of going to 1%
sometimes it even becomes an endless loop as it’s never triggering the end-loop condition
I dont find it good practice to spam actions to HA and the network
if HA is not blocking the script for the “transition” time (specialy for lights that dont support it), this would be a blocker

I’m reworking this and will post an update once I’m done (at least with the transition).

Now, if you have more questions/remarks, please use the related topic instead of this one

Thanks all for such a prompt responses and help!

First: yes, definitely, I used a wrong blueprint. I installed this one, while the other one (IKEA RODRET Dimmer + SOMRIG Remotes - ZHA/Z2M - Control Light) would fit my needs better.
I was just confused with names and didn’t notice that the last word is different

Anyways, for my purposes direct binding remote to the group of lights worked better - basically offering the same experience as when it was just a connection w/o HA.

Next I’m going to purchase few more ikea remotes and use the “control light” blueprint to control other, non-ikea lights around the house.

This method worked for me when nothing else did. Pairing near another Ikea router was the key, I think. Thank you!

UsefulVid · January 4, 2025, 10:04pm

I have z2m + mqtt running and one somrig and 2 rodrets.
With z2m v2.0 the blueprint says no device found

Would be great to get some advice

edit:
I edited the blueprint and removed the filter and could manually select my rodret.

#         - integration: mqtt
#           manufacturer: IKEA
#           model: RODRET wireless dimmer/power switch (E2201)

Nevertheless the filter values are correct

mannnii · January 5, 2025, 11:04am

hi, can you explain what you did?

regards

UsefulVid · January 5, 2025, 11:15am

I access the configuration/blueprint path and edited the yaml with a text editor:

mannnii · January 5, 2025, 11:58am

Perfect.This works.

Tank you!

UsefulVid · January 5, 2025, 5:00pm

@damru With z2m in V2 the double press event is also broken. If I click once it is handled as a double click event. Both buttons affected.

damru · January 6, 2025, 8:09am

Hi,

Thanks for pointing this out.
I did the change in the blueprint, this should be fixed now.

damru · January 6, 2025, 8:18am

Hey,

I tried with my Rodret + Z2M, and could not reproduce your issue.
Did you try lowering the Double press delay ?

UsefulVid · January 6, 2025, 8:24am

I will try again

Re-Mark · January 6, 2025, 8:30am

Thanks a lot!
Just yesterday I had the problem, that the Ikea Rodret and the Ledvance mini switches I had just installed, were not accessible by the blueprints I had installed for them. In your blueprint, I was not able to select a device.
Since I am quite new to Z2M, and also new to these switches and to blueprints, I was not sure if this was a configuration problem, and in which part of home assistant.

Some minutes ago, I saw your posting, that you “did the change in the blueprint”, re-imported it, and now it is possible to select a device!

Thank you!

Hopefully the other blueprint for the Ledvance will also be updated to work with Zigbee2MQTT 2.0., I will see how to contact the author.

UsefulVid · January 6, 2025, 8:36am

Single press is still recognized as a double press.
This seems to be a general problem:

The delay is on 300ms (also tested with 100ms) now.

this is that I get in the logs for a single press:

in zigbee2mqtt itself:

@damru looks like that the on action appears 6 times instead of just a single hit.

on the other side:

in the logbook the actions do not appear 6 times. They correctly reflected my button presses.

damru · January 6, 2025, 10:08am

Can you check if you have some legacy option in your configuration.yaml ?
The behaviour on my end is correct.
I also already migrated the blueprint to the new device trigger specification (instead of using action button) a while back.
The only thing different from you that I can see is that I dont have the Action available anymore since migrating to Z2M v2.

UsefulVid · January 6, 2025, 10:17am

No “legacy” options in my configuration (also checked the yaml file)
