Context

This blueprint aims at replicating the experience of having the Hue Dimmer remote working with a single light. If you bought one of the Hue Ceiling lights that comes with the remote, you can pair the remote directly to it and it allows you to control brightness along with cycling through the light temperature by pressing the Hue button.

If you then decide to pair the lights with Home Assistant, the remote looses the pairing with the light.

Instructions

This blueprint requires the light and the remote to be in Zigbee2MQTT and the remote to have a binding to the light for on/off and brightness control.

Follow those instructions for the pairing and binding process:

  1. Pair the ceiling lights with Zigbee2MQTT
  2. Pair the Hue Dimmer with Zigbee2MQTT
  3. Open Zigbee2Mqtt > Bindings
  4. Find the remote and click on its name
  5. On the new screen, click [+ Add] button
  6. Select the light you want to pair with as the target
  7. Select the following clusters:
    • genOnOff
    • genLevelCtrl
    • genGroups (optional if your target is a group)

After this is complete, you can import the blue print below:

Open your Home Assistant instance and show the blueprint import dialog with a specific blueprint pre-filled.

You want to run one blueprint per dimmer. Select the dimmer and the light and customize the 5 possible temperature options.
