Ikea Tradfri Push Button

Hardware
3

Not really, that’s an actual dimmer. This one is just a push button.

4

oh its a wheel i get it

5

Similar to https://www.ikea.com/nl/en/p/tradfri-wireless-dimmer-white-70408595/ but more restrictive.

At least, if you have it paired up with an alternate zigbee handler. probably better for scene management within the tradfri hub.

I had no clue they had these as well, they also appear to be new. I guess the main use for the single button one is to start a scene, whereas the dimmer one is mainly used for lighting.

7

so are these zigbee repeaters

Do you know if it will be possible to receive an event when the button is pressed?
I have other Trådfri devices and the gateway installed, but I would like to have a button press invoke a service in HA.

10

tbh, I doubt it. The hub doesn’t expose the button presses to HA.

Which is why I have them paired with deconz which handles it fine. (for the buttons I have)

11

Thx for the pointer to deCONZ, I didn’t know about that.
I have now ordered a ConBee and am looking forward to using a button in the future :slightly_smiling_face:

12

I moved all my zigbee to deconz. Only issue im having is getting alexa to see them. Maybe an issue with V5 as I only just started to use it.
I also got the repeater to work with deconz added as a light. Will go and get some more to spread around the house.

How is this Ikea push button to be integrated in Home Assistant?

Context:
ConBee II Zigbee dongle
Ikea push button is seen in deCONZ
Probably need to edit configuration.yaml?

14

An event trigger.
If you go in developer tools, start listening to deconz_events
Then press the button and see what data you get.
Use that to build the event trigger.
There are also blueprints available for most devices to help with this.

Thank you for your reply.

In the deCONZ view, the button is flashing when pressed.
However, listening for “deconz_events” in Developer Tools: no events appear

16

Are they showing as switches in phoscon?

17

yes, appears as " TRÅDFRI on/off switch" in phoscon

18

Double check that you definitely started listening to the events.

19

Notices a typo.
I should have said deconz_event
Sorry about that, give that a try

20

If you need help with the trigger, paste what you get from the event on here and I’ll have a look

21

OK, event received now!
Indeed, it is “deconz_event” to listen to, without ‘s’

Now received this event:

{
    "event_type": "deconz_event",
    "data": {
        "id": "tradfri_on_off_switch",
        "unique_id": "5c:02:72:ff:fe:80:4c:b9",
        "event": 1002,
        "device_id": "a222ef86f483ab4aaeec1a350bcd65f8"
    },
    "origin": "LOCAL",
    "time_fired": "2021-02-15T10:18:32.615694+00:00",
    "context": {
        "id": "513cf3e0557bbf1106f1dd5f42d9b5a6",
        "parent_id": null,
        "user_id": null
    }
}

Thank you for your help

Perfect.
Here’s the yaml way to do the trigger:

event_data:
  event: 1002
  id: tradfri_on_off_switch
event_type: deconz_event
platform: event

Or see pic for the UI method
