Would it be possible to add the functionality to have long press actions repeated with a certain delay? This would be great to use them for brightness and volume control.
Sorry if I haven’t answered you yet, but I’m in the middle of a university exam session.
I started editing the blueprint the day you wrote it, but it still doesn’t work perfectly.
As soon as I take this next exam on February 12th I’ll get back to it, I promise!
By the way, I’m doing it with a solution very similar to the video posted by @kszaboa
Yes
If you wish to have a list of colours, you should make a “selector” helper with each hex color code you wish to rotate through. Next you have to make an automation (or script) to go to the next value input_select.select_next service of the selector and then use a template to adapt the current value of the dropdown to fit in the color input of your light.
Unfortunately I still have no RGB lights in my home at the moment, so i never faced the problem of changing colour “continuously”.
I created an automation (activate a scene on single dot press) based on your blueprint, unfortunately the action is never triggered. Do you have an idea what could be the reason?
I know the scene is working as I have the same automation with a Ikea STYRBAR which works perfectly fine.
Well … what can I say? Lorenzo, Olaf and kszaboa you are stars!!
You have saved me sooooo much time.
Thank you very much.
I’ve only been using HA for a month or so. I’ve been moving all my ‘Hive’ devices to HA under ZHA with reasonable success.
During a recent visit to IKEA store I got carried away and bought too many devices. When I got home I got one or two working then started to worry!!!
This is my first Blueprint and along with Ed’s Youtube video I have finally got there. The Somrig controller is working prefectly with a HIve bulb.
Ed’s Youtube video is great but I guess it must be quite old. For anyone else trying to get it working you need to apply all the principles but the menus look quite different now (I guess) so you may need to search for key controls (especially ‘Restart’)
All good. Thank you again guys - especially Lorenzo.
@cecche - Many thanks indeed for putting this blueprint together, it saved me a tonne of time & was super helpful considering this is my 1st venture into Zigbee devices.
Everything works really well, albeit maybe too well
I’m noticing a tonne of these events in the automation log, which as you can see are happening once every hour or so:
Which are at the same time as these Checkin events from the Somrig remote log:
I understand the Checkin events are necessary & that interval attribute is from the Zigbee controller (which in my case is a SkyConnect dongle), & while I can change it to an awfully long interval, I’d really like to understand why the blueprint/automation is being fired on these types of events?
Fyi, my automation is currently setup to fire on Single dot (Single press)
Any help would be greatly appreciated
<<<<< UPDATE >>>>>
Tracing the different trigger steps some more, I noticed a different command value between an actual push of the button, & a checkin event:
cluster_id is also different. Adding either cluster_id: 32 or command: checkin as a NOT condition in the main blueprint should supress the triggering of this automation
I would like to use your blueprint. I have a IKEA Somrig E2213 ZHA. I connected it to my HA successfully but after pressing the button nothing happens. I get the error message Error: UndefinedError: ‘dict object’ has no attribute 'event. Cab someone help me please?
Just got hold of a couple of these devices and am having issues getting them into HA. I’ve managed to get one to pair but get nothing more than the battery and one other entity.
I’d like to use this blueprint but I’ve not had to do this before and I’m not sure quite how to do it. I’d like to get these working but if I can’t they’ll have to go back to Ikea for a refund.
Thanks so much for this Blueprint - it’s really helpful. I’ve finally gotten a Somrig remote and have set this up. Is it possible to add looping events for holding down the buttons?
I am only able to use the single dot. Two dots does nothing. I have the SLZB-06 zigbee dongle connected to my HA. I’ve tried reconfiguring, but to no avail. Any ideas?
