I have been installing ELKO zigbee dimmers (SmartDim vri Uni 200W RS PH - ELKO) in my home, and have successfully added 13 of the same kind already. This one dimmer however is not showing up and I am absolutely flabbergasted as to why it is not being discovered and added. It is located 5 cm from another dimmer of the same kind that should be acting as a repeater
My setup:
• Running on a raspberry Pi with Sonoff Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle (2 floors away, so signal probably not the strongest here – but plenty of signal-repeating dimmers nearby)
• Currently 32 zigbee devices in the mesh – 10 battery-powered sensors and switches, 22 powered signal-repeating dimmers and dimmer pucks
This is what I’ve tried so far:
• Adding it the way I usually do, via /zha/add
• Adding it via the closest dimmer, “add devices via this device”
• Resetting the dimmer
• Having the electrician replace the dimmer with a new dimmer, in case it was a faulty HW device
Has anyone experienced something similar? If yes, how did you solve it? I will soon be bald from scratching my head on this mystery
