Scroll up? Details are there on what wires to tap into
Hi mate
Thanks for the direction ![]()
Yea I read the whole thread before posting my question.
I was hoping to pick his brains, and see if he managed to keep the OG display at all.
Basically I have the same Vevor 8” fan, and want to keep the manual control/display on the wall, but also be able to control the speed via HA as well.
Also, rather than buying a standalone esp32, I have a Uno R4 WiFi so I’m thinking of using that.
Cheers ![]()
Would it be possible to use a Shelly to control the fan speed? For example a https://www.shelly.com/products/shelly-0-1-10v-dimmer-pm-gen3
I’m working on a small PCB to replace the current controller while keeping it plug-and-play with the original fan connector.
The plan is to power the board from the fan’s 24 V, output PWM speed control back to the fan, and let Home Assistant handle the actual logic. The board would also expose a temperature input back to HA.
Has anyone already figured out the exact original connector type?
Yeah!
The motor is always powered directly, and the 0–5V signal only regulates the speed. No signal = maximum speed
- 230V Live → L (Shelly)
- 230V Neutral → N (Shelly)
- Shelly + → Yellow wire (signal)
- Shelly − → Black wire (GND)
When the Shelly is set to 0%, it will output 0V and the motor will stop. At 100%, it will output approximately 5V (with the maximum brightness limit set to 50% since the module is 10v) and the motor will run at full speed. Everything is controlled from Home Assistant, in my case with Zigbee , using Shelly Dimmer 0/1-10V PM Gen4.
@ Bendersito Hi, i’m trying to use the same config as you, but i have some problems, and maybe you could help me.
I have the same Shelly (connected exactly like you), but as soon as I connect it to z2m it disconnects and disable the zigbee connexion on the shelly.
So I tried connecting in wifi, and trying to make it work with the wifi interface of the Shelly (connected to my home wifi), and it does things which don’t seems normal, at 27% my fan is off, at 28% it works (but badly as if it was doing on/off repeteadly) and at 29% it’s full speed.
Did you only use the Shelly Dimmer 0-10V gen4 or did you ad anything ?
How did you get it to work properly ?
Thx for your answer.
(Excuse my english, I do my best)
