When I long-press the center button, the Center button short press is fired inmediately and a few seconds later, the actual Center button long press actions are fired.
Is this expected behaviour, long-press also fires short press?
Thank you for the template, it’s great and has allowed me to go from 3 buttons to 1 remote for this area!
I see now that you explained it on that reply, and it’s more widely described here: Ikea Tradfri switches "long press" - #4 by xaviml
I guess then it’s what it is, just not mentioned in the Blueprint 
Did you find out how to do it? I was trying today to do that but I didn’t succeed
Hi
After my Ikea hub burned down (one of the chips is cooked well done) I was looking for a replacement hub, but unfortunately they’re pretty much unobtainium, so I decided to go with a conbee II stick. I’ve deconz up and running next to HA on my home build nas, so far so good.
I’ve to say the user experience of the buttons was very lacking at the start, but these blueprints are pretty awesome! It definitely feels more like the out of the box experience I had with the ikea hub.
Right now only 2 things are bothering me, one of which is the colour rotation but I guess I can figure that out by using scenes.
The one that bothers me most is HA not remembering the last brightness of a bulb after turning it off. Deconz does manages to do this, but there the user interaction is less good. Is there any way to achieve this on HA as well?
Has something changed recently that would effect this automation?
I noticed a few weeks ago my short press up/down buttons are no longer working to set the brightness value of my lights.
My setup is quite simple with down short press to 10% brightness and up short press to 100% brightness.
I have the same issue since the HA 2022.4.x release I think. Hoping a fix is posted soon…
FYI: Looks like a fix for this is being worked on, here: Fix button_up/down_long not working in HASS 2022.4.3 by kanflo · Pull Request #314 · EPMatt/awesome-ha-blueprints · GitHub
If you’re like me don’t have enough patient to wait for the fix to get merged. You can just import the fix manually from here: awesome-ha-blueprints/blueprints/controllers at fe4e058d71bc1a51ad0038e91cadf5f63fab3014 · EPMatt/awesome-ha-blueprints · GitHub
Pick your controller device, copy the url for the yaml-file and import as Blueprint in Home Assistant.
For example, this is for the url for the 5-button remote (e1524/e1810): https://github.com/EPMatt/awesome-ha-blueprints/blob/fe4e058d71bc1a51ad0038e91cadf5f63fab3014/blueprints/controllers/ikea_e1524_e1810/ikea_e1524_e1810.yaml
I just imported it and all buttons finally works again!
I am trying to setup this blueprint with my Ikea button but I am struggling to get it working and I think it is something to do with the input_text. I created the following
Should something be configured inside this other than this
Is the fix not merged yet?
Hi, this looks to me a great work. Unfortunately the Up and Down button are not working. All otthers are working.
I have a Remote Control Tradfri E1810 and an Ikea Lamp Tradfi 250lm. Both connected to HA with ZHA via Sonoff bridge flashed with Tasmota.
After a lot of debugging I found out that the Up and Down button of my Controller are not sending the right message.
This is what I get when clicking in each of the 5 buttons:
This explains why nothing is executed when pressing Up and Down button.
Anyone with similar experience or any hint?
Thanks a lot in advance!
same here 
I have the same issue. Left and Right button works like a charm. Can’t make Up and Down buttons work.
I have tripple checked that the mapping in /config/blueprints/automation/EPMatt/ikea_e1524_e1810.yaml is identical to what I receive from the Ikea controller.
I’m using zha and ConBee II
Any good ideas? I would love to have this wonderfull blueprint to work!!
For me just the center button works.
Ikea E1524 with ZHA and Sonoff Zigbee USB 3.0.
Funny, I’m looking for blueprints because I have the same problem with an other blueprint (frenck’s). I’m using the same hardware as you…
Must be problem with all the blueprints then.
My E1524 with controllerX center, up and down button working. Left and right doesn’t work. With any blueprint only center button works.
Have the same issue too.
Works if replace the line
button_up_short: [step_with_on_off_0_43_5]
with
button_up_short: [step_with_on_off_StepMode.Up_43_5]
And
button_down_short: [step_1_43_5]
with
button_down_short: [step_StepMode.Down_43_5_0_0]
There is already a pull request with the fix - Update ikea_e1524_e1810 Up and Down short press mapping
Guys, just bumped on this while searching for something else: of course it’s possible to mix the use for different purposes.
I do this for lights and mediaplayers.
Hi guys, I’m using this remote to control mainly my mediaplayers but also some lights/helpers.
For some buttons I use the long or double press functionality.
This has worked flawlessly until some time ago and for a reason I cannot find, the double press doesn’t work anymore.
The (Optional) Expose x button double press event is enabled.
I increased Helper - Double Press delay input to 10000 but still a double press is seen as single.
Does anyone have the same problem or an idea what might be wrong?
Yeah I just noticed today my double presses also don’t work like they used too. I haven’t looked into it much but if I do (and get them working) will let you know.
