im just creating this topic to get information on the Status of the implementation of the Wall Switch module in Hassio.
Right now, as far as I can tell, its only capable of displaying Battery Status and the Signal it Outputs isnt actually capable of using it for automation (atleast in HA, Hue App works) and I dont want to create some custom MQTT Stuff because im sure the Module will get integrated properly in the near future.
The Hue 4-button switch has built in device triggers. Maybe check to see if it has those?
Go to and select the switch module. If it’s got device triggers, you should be able to click the plus button next to Automations and get pre-built triggers you can use.
Thank you for the reply, but the Wall Switch module has no entities yet, so nothing except the battery level pops up. I guess its just waiting for now. Keep in mind that in the picture the device isnt connected, but thats not an issue right now
Hey guys, I managed to forward events (switch presses) to Hassio using deconz_event. Successfully integrated Hue module in automations, options now are unlimited
what zigbee adapter do you use? I have a normal Hue Bridge but I also just bought a zigbee usb Stick which I would try out but I dont know which Integration id have to use for that
Is there any update for this with HASSIO and Zigbee2Mqtt - I’m super new to this and ive invested in a zigbee2mqtt recommended board and want to use these if possible rather than shelly L1’s I think - mainly where there are 2 light switches controlling one light if thats poss in hassio with Zigbee
Edit: Got it. You have to connect a wall switch and switch to ON one-time to start paring.
Did anybody try the wall switch module with ZHA?
I’m not able to pair it. I tried holding down the module’s reset button, but pairing is not started. the only thing i see in the add-device-log is:
Device triggers where working for me with my Philips Hue Dimmer switch via a direct zha (HUSBZB-1) until 2021.4.0. Now I only get battery based triggers for that wall dimmer.
Is this a known issue? or has the implementation now changed?
Hey,
I also paired the device via conbee 2. I see the device (id: rdm001_8) in deconz. Moreover, I see the correct events if I start listening to “deconz_events”.
My question is: How did you manage to forward this events for automations?
which phoscon version are you running? I am running 2.10.04 and apparently im at latest version. According to the changelog there is version 2.10.3 which has the wall switch module implemented.
I cannot connect to the switch no matter what I try (resetting, pressing buttons etc)
Yes In the VNC Deconz it shows up (also in Homeassistant as a device etc) but the only entity I see is the battery level like if I would integrate it over the hue hub.
You said you use deconz_event. How does that work? How do I get the Event Codes?
