I’m currently using a Lutron Aurora zigbee dial. It can either rotate left, rotate right, or be clicked. I’m using Zigbee2MQTT, and trying to use the dial to smoothly adjust a Zigbee light group I’ve defined in Z2M. But here are the issues: 1.) The Lutron Aurora’s MQTT payload does not make it clea…

Just in case anyone comes across this - I ended up not using an automation for the Lutron Aurora and instead bound the dial to each individual light in my light group (trying to bind to the light group itself failed). I absolutely don’t recommend these dials if you plan on using them for more custo…

Your breakdown really help me. I wanted to get this working with an IKEA dimmable bulb, but you’re right, currently all of the actions are not exposed and its impossible to make it work.

This knob has been the first Zigbee device I bought that didn’t “just work” right out of the box. But the promise of the unique form factor of the device motivated me to keep trying. I ended up not using the action entity exposed by Z2M, as you say it is always only brightness_move_to_level, which…

[image] TRS-80: but that will be a project for another day So what I ended up doing was to create an ‘Input number’ for the brightness level of this particular light fixture, with a value range of 0-255. Now, I typically turn on lights (usually via motion) at certain brightness levels depend…

[image] TRS-80: I did try this, couldn’t get it to work (in Z2M). Curious to know if you do. I finally got around to trying to bind the Aurora Dimmer to a target. Although I got Z2M to say the bindings for a few set of clusters was successful (including genLevel), the dimmer never did contro…

Can i ask, the Aurora dimmer you’re referring to in this post is it the wired into the mains dimmer or the battery operated dimmer? (Aurora AU-A1ZBR1GW)

[image] thestraycat: Can i ask, the Aurora dimmer you’re referring to in this post is it the wired into the mains dimmer or the battery operated dimmer? AFAIK, ‘Lutron Aurora’ is only a battery operated device. At least that was what I was referring to, can’t speak for others of course. I w…

Curious, is the blueprint still working for you? Did you have to do customization?

Although I haven’t tried this yet (and I will), I agree that this is probably the better way.

In the meantime as an FYI, I’ve got the following Blueprint to work
