Set the Indicator Light on a Zooz ZEN32 Scene Controller button to Match the State of a Light

Hey there, @sle118 ,

Thanks for this… It looks like both of the blueprints are the same. The augmented light version also downloads the switch version. I would love the augmented light version if its possible. thanks

I don’t know if I have a newer firmware or what but this automation/blueprint is not working for me on my Zen32

@sle118

Thank you for the “switch” blueprint. I would also use the “light” blueprint if available. As mentioned by @samedarkclouds, it looks like same link was posted in both places for the “switch” variant.

Is anyone having an issue when using this for the relay button? For some reason, when I do that, it causes the switch to report the relay is on even though the switch isn’t. Any ideas? I don’t have any issues for the other buttons

:clap: I just wanted to take a moment here to send a HUGE thank you to @halomademeapc and so many others over the recent years that have made this system SO GREAT.

Back in 2017 I tried doing this with another, earlier, zwave controller…

After a long struggle making sure that the zwave device configuration was correct, the proper branches of zwave and homeassistant were being used, the associations were correct, a custom component was created and the yaml scripts were in place, I was able to get something that kind of worked (as long as my wife didn’t try to use it).

Yesterday, I unboxed the Zen32, clicked to import the blueprints and in a matter of clicks I am comfortable with a scene controller the whole family uses.

Thank you, thank you… thank you!

Also extending thanks here, this works GREAT with my ZEN32 controllers.
I customized it a bit to use it with a binary_sensor and simplify some things down in my setup. Never would have gotten there without what you put together.

Updated blueprint to remove light domain restriction on entity picker. This allows it to work with fans, switches, etc. You can use this with this blueprint and just call the toggle service for the other domain you are using:

A suggestion if someone is willing: Considering there are 5 of these buttons per switch, a single automation to handle a single switch would be vastly preferred, especially if it can include the additional options @sle118 included.

Over my head at the moment, and thank you @halomademeapc for at least getting me started :slight_smile:

Hi @sle118 . Thank you for your contribution on the switch version of the blueprint. It looks like the blueprint for the light version (on/off/dim) points back to the same switch version. Would you have a chance to provide a corrected link to your light version of the blueprint?

Thanks,
Rick

I got this blueprint to work with the indicator lights. However, I would like an option to have the indicator light green when the light is on instead of the indicator light being off. How do I go about changing that? There isn’t an option in the blueprint to change that parameter.

I’m in the same boat here. I have a deck with two zooz outdoor switches. one is attached to some rope light, and another is attached to some string lights. I’ve set the buttons to have their respective colors, and i’d like the light to be on if the switch is on, and off if the light is off - im going to have a second zen32 switch across the room which will basically act as a remote for the first, so i’d like to have the granular control of the lights as thezfunk described.

okay, i deployed this blueprint and it does everything i want, except for one thing - if something else chages the state of the switch a button controls, the buttons light doesnt change. I’d like the status of the assigned switch to govern if the corresponding button light is on or off, has anyone twiddled with that yet?

This is awesome! Exactly what I was looking to do. Has anyone had any success combining this blueprint with that of the “Actions” blueprint for the switch? ZEN32 Scene Controller - Z-Wave JS

It would be nice to set everything up (actions for each scene button) and the LED light behaviors for each button on the controller

For anyone who may stumble across this and wonder “Where is the LIGHT version of the modified blueprint referenced by @sle118 ?”

Working just fine with a ZEN32 800LR on the latest firmware (after updating the model in the blueprint). You may also want to disable the LED Settings Indicator (Param 23) on your ZEN32, otherwise you get green led blinks on every state change.

@Viss
I used the following blueprint to keep the little button indicator LED in sync with the state of the controlled smart plug:

If you’ve done this for a zooz zen32 800R, i’m curious how you aimed this at the actual lights themselves - because all I can see are the scene controllers for the button presses, and when i tried that it just blinked the light green a couple times and didnt change the color or keep the light on. Is there a way you found to specify the light on each button?

I’ve imported this blueprint, and updated the model to zen32 800lr, and added in the extra colors (i prefer magenta), however having disabled parameter 32, and changed the blueprint to work on switches (i have a bunch of zooz outdoor switches controling deck lighting) im trying to get two zooz zen32 800lrs to be syncronized when the deck lights are on or off.

at the minute whats happening is that I press the scene 1 button, and the lights come on, but the indicator light on the button just flashes blue and stays off. I press it again, the indicator flashes white and turns off. My objective is to have the indicator off if the lights are off and magenta if the lights are on, but I can’t seem to figure out how to make this blueprint do that for me. I think I may be doing something wrong?

@Viss

Try setting all the LED’s to Off by default in the zwave config and then use 5 instances of the Linked Entities blueprint above, one for each button and LED (on both Zen32’s) and your remote smart plug. Probably disable the Zen32 blueprint.

The LED indicator light is controlled through the properties that look like:

…Controller Button 3 indication - Binary


I have to say that I am new to HA and zwave and after I started using this Zen32 and a smart plug that is 8’ away I was having some terrible unresponsiveness of the whole system with big delays for things to turn on or off or the HA app not able to control anything for a while and the smart plug kept going dead until I physically pushed the button on the side.
All of that made me suspicious of all these blueprints as actually working.

I swapped in a new smart plug and now everything seems to be working including all the Zen32 indicator lights tracking the remote device status.

I have been looking for some assistance with this ZEN32 - for a long time. I hope that these Blueprints will give me what I want.

Thought I would share with the writers of said blueprints, I have discovered with the latest firmware for the ZEN32 - you get 3 more colors for the buttons. The latest FW adds Magenta, Yellow and Cyan to the color pool.

Just put a new 800 series model in my garage and saw that this doesn’t work with it. I put in a change to allow both the 700 and 800 series to work, will look into the additional colors in the firmware update
