Fibaro Dimmer 2 FGD-212 Parameter 28 problems

Other Devices & Integrations Lighting & Load Control

I?m a n00b. Just so you know. And english is not my first language, from Sweden, no nothing did happen here :slight_smile:
Hope someone can help me with this.

Got a Vera plus and a bunch of Fibaro Dimmer 2 FGD-212.
I am planning to use these to control a ceiling lamp and a window lamp in three rooms and a wall mounted lamp + a scene in one room.
The first project is the wall lamp and a scene (set mode to night/home)

Setup worked fine. Got a dual switch with springs (monostabile)
I want S1 to dim the wall lamp and S2 to trigger a scene.
S1
1-press turns light on to 100%
1-press again dims to 1%
Double press turns on/off.
Press and hold does nothing, once I release it goes to 100% or 1%
So I can?t set dim level with the switch. Using Vera I can set dim-level and turn on/off.

To activate S2 to trigger scenes I set Parameter 28 to 1.
S1 can not turn off the light, double press does not turn on/off anymore. Dimming still does not work. Single press is strange, sometimes nothing, sometimes 1% or 100%.

So, when setting parameter 28 to 1 does this remove the direct controll of the dimmer on S1 so I have to set up scenes for the dimmer?

With the scenetrigger it seems to be some setup with LUA och PLEG, I find some old info on this (parameter 41 is not right for the new dimmer 2) but is there anybody who has a guide that can help me?

Regarding the S1 problem i think you have set your switch hmm… upsidedown?? :-\ ? try set the spring on the other end of your button

THANK YOU @mrtnox
Must have tuned it around when I was putting in those small springs. Dimmer works perfect now! Going to se if this solved the other issue

S2 to trigger scenes works great using this guide

Got this working just fine S2 as scene controller, but now I got a couple of more dimmers…

This is what i put in the startup Lua

local YourDeviceID = 65

luup.variable_watch(“SceneActivation”,“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:SceneController1”,“LastSceneTime”,YourDeviceID)

function SceneActivation()
local lastSceneID= luup.variable_get(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:SceneController1”, “LastSceneID”,YourDeviceID)
if (lastSceneID== “26”) then
luup.call_action(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1”,“RunScene”,{ SceneNum=“14” },0)
elseif (lastSceneID== “24”) then
luup.call_action(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1”,“RunScene”,{ SceneNum=“15” },0)
elseif (lastSceneID== “25”) then
luup.call_action(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1”,“RunScene”,{ SceneNum=“16” },0)
end
end

Works great, but when I add another dimmer only the last one works. So Device 65 stops working as a scene controller when I add Device 62.

local YourDeviceID = 65

luup.variable_watch(“SceneActivation”,“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:SceneController1”,“LastSceneTime”,YourDeviceID)

function SceneActivation()
local lastSceneID= luup.variable_get(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:SceneController1”, “LastSceneID”,YourDeviceID)
if (lastSceneID== “26”) then
luup.call_action(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1”,“RunScene”,{ SceneNum=“14” },0)
elseif (lastSceneID== “24”) then
luup.call_action(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1”,“RunScene”,{ SceneNum=“15” },0)
elseif (lastSceneID== “25”) then
luup.call_action(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1”,“RunScene”,{ SceneNum=“16” },0)
end
end

local YourDeviceID = 62

luup.variable_watch(“SceneActivation”,“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:SceneController1”,“LastSceneTime”,YourDeviceID)

function SceneActivation()
local lastSceneID= luup.variable_get(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:SceneController1”, “LastSceneID”,YourDeviceID)
if (lastSceneID== “26”) then
luup.call_action(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1”,“RunScene”,{ SceneNum=“17” },0)
elseif (lastSceneID== “24”) then
luup.call_action(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1”,“RunScene”,{ SceneNum=“18” },0)
elseif (lastSceneID== “25”) then
luup.call_action(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1”,“RunScene”,{ SceneNum=“19” },0)
end
end

Do I need another luupfile for a second scenecontroller?
