Hi,
I’ve got a Sonoff ZbBridge flashed with Tasmota for devices which are too far from my Raspberry Pi and its Conbee II stick. Only a couple of Aqara buttons and a door sensor until today.
I wanted to add a couple of Philips Hue Dimmer Switches, to have more buttons to control the kids’ WLED strips (4 vs. only 1 on the Aqara button). They paired fine, and I see the button presses in the Tasmota log as well as over MQTT, but:
- The bottom “Hue” button doesn’t work at all. When I press any of the other 3 buttons, the LED goes green and I see a message. With the Hue button, nothing… I tested both devices I have, and same thing, so I doubt it’s a hardware defect. I also tried resetting them (pressing all 4 buttons for a few seconds), and the reset worked, but the issue persists.
- The buttons seem a lot more limited than what I had expected. I saw blueprints mentioning simple, double, triple presses, long presses, etc. for Philips devices, but I just get two alternating Power:0 and Power:1 for the power button (the device is stateful!), and 3 different events for each of the other buttons: Short press event, one repeating event when keeping pressed and one event when releasing after having kept pressed. That’s it.
The exact model of the device is 9290023986
Is anyone familiar with this hardware? Can I get the bottom “Hue” button to work somehow? Are these limitations because of the ZbBridge compared to if I was using ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT? (I’m using Tasmota 11.0.0 on it, which is currently the latest)
