I recently bought some matter bulbs from Amazon branded as Orein and has a native app AiDot. I can get it to work the way i want by setting up the bulbs in the AiDot interface and also add them as matter bulbs in HA.
The AiDot app allows me to set the bulbs up with the power off state allowing the bulbs to return to its previous state (for reference: in the app, as of right now it isn’t very intuitive that after a power cycle if you choose to power “off” the bulb it returns to the previous state, which is what i want. It does not turn the bulb off regardless of the previous state which it appearss to indicate).
The HA template doesn’t have the power state option for this bulb when added. I know this is an option for the zigbee bulbs i use, is there a way I have that capabilityfir these matter bulbs in HA? Can i use a different template for these bulbs or just continue to use two apps?
I just bought a Orein Lamp fot outside wall mointing.
I get it connected to the AiDot Andriod App and can see its IP address.
But I’m unable to connect it to the matter integration in HA .
I tried both cases, while connected to the Adroid app and also after deletion in the app.
I neither got a QR Code nor a 11 / 21 digit pairing code which the matter integration asks for.
How did you manage to integrate the Orein device into matter integration?
Yes, I think it was my mistake.
I assumed, that all Orein Lamps, which can be controlled via AiDot App (controllable via Bluetooth and Wifi) are Matter ready.
But it seems, this is the case for the bulbs only, but not for my outside wall mountabe lamp.
Sorry, I would be very happy, if there is a way (which I did not find) to control these lamp by home assistant.
It can be controlled by Alexa and Google home after all.
I do not see the IP adress of the lamp in my router…
Bringing them into home assistant using the Matter beta integration was straight forward. They seem to work fine on the whole.
However when I try to use the Adaptive Lighting integration to adjust the brightness and colour temperature throughout the day, it doesn’t work correctly. The colour temperature is set too warm.
