ZWave-JS - Inovelli LZW31-SN Red-Series Dimmer

Thanks for sharing!

If you use trigger.event.data.value_raw instead your Blueprint won’t break when they fix the bug :slight_smile:.

I had this is node-red before, wish I could figure it out again.

Jeremy’s original version above should work again with the Z-Wave JS event value fix in Home Assistant 2012.03.1 (https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/47408).

Thanks for the contribution, this is great!

UPDATE : After banging my head on my desk trying to get HA to see my switch correctly (restarting the server, updating ZwaveJS, restarting the integration, etc. etc.), I excluded it and re-added it. HA was able to see it properly the second time and now it’s listed as available for the Blueprint to use. Thanks!

Super basic question - I’m transitioning from Hubitat and only got HA with Z-Wave JS up and running yesterday. How do I assign this to a LZW31-SN device I have already linked via Z-Wave JS? I don’t see any way to tell HA that it’s an Inovelli device.

I’ve added the Blueprint, but when I go to use it, it doesn’t seem to find my LZW31-SN as a suitable device (it doesn’t show up in the drop-down).

I think there was a breaking change in the April update. zwave_event went to zwave_js_value_notification

Updated the blueprint to support the April 2021 release. Please let me know if there are any issues and I’ll update.

Is anyone able to use set_config_parameter to get this to change colors or anything?

Thanks for the update, now some of my automations which broke during the April update work again.

I have a problem that many of my Inovelliy LZW31-SN devices show “unknown” as Manufacturer and Model. They work fine, but I cannot select these in your blueprint, they don’t show up in the Device drop-down.

Any idea how I can “force” these devices to show the correct values for Manufacturer and Model?

How is everyone using this to emulate dimming for a smart bulb? I would like to dim/brighten my Hue bulbs using the held down and maybe add the released event. It would be nice to do it all within the same blueprint but it seems that you just get a single held down and released event.

Thanks in advanced for any ideas.

Echoing what jrhubott said, this is still the missing piece for me (using these with Hue bulbs). I’d really love to be able to use press and hold dimming.

Anyone figure out the Hue dimming with this blueprint?

Anyone know why I would be getting this error:

Error: UndefinedError: ‘dict object’ has no attribute ‘event’

Step ConfigChanged VariablesRelated logbook entries

I can’t get any automations to work using the blueprint. When I click the defined button - in this case the C button, it fires the event, but it does not do the next steps and ends up with that error.

I got this error when i test the blueprint by using the run action button.

When i test by using the Switch it works fine. How are you testing this Blueprint?

Also did you make this change?

OK -
So 2 lessons learned -

  1. I was getting this error from running it from the ‘run actions’ instead of hitting the button, which is why it was giving me the undefined button error

2). Logbook MUST be in your config and active. Without it, keypress cannot be counted, which causes this to break.

Seeing the following error in the logs of the 2021.8.3 release:

Logger: homeassistant.helpers.template

First occurred: 8:27:32 PM (2 occurrences)
Last logged: 8:32:19 PM

Template variable warning: 'zwave_device' is undefined when rendering '{{ zwave_device }}'

Thoughts?

I see that I can trigger an individual device, but can I trigger a group? I have 6 Hue lights coupled as a group and would like to control all 6 bulbs as one.

Thanks for this blueprint. I have it working to control 3 WIZ (wifi) lights for on/off/scene operation but not sure how to get paddle hold dimming to work…any ideas anyone?

We discussed several options for dimming control of other devices using the inovelli dimmer on this thread recently

Is there a way to have the automation created by this target several switches at the same time - so for example the switches in my kitchen all behave the same according to the automation I create?
