Fibaro Dimmer 2

Other Devices & Integrations Lighting & Load Control
1

Ok maybe a stupid question!

Hooked up the dimmer 2 module today, works fine from the momentary push switch and dims but when sending z-wave the on or dim commands lights come on then go off straight away, load is under 250w. If switched on from the switch control via z-wave is fine (up/down/off, but cannot turn on again)

Can anyone help??

Have been playing again today and found if I send 2x z-wave signals one after the other quickly (either on or dim) the lights come on and stay on, I guess that rules out a wiring error, also from the light switch everything is working well as expected.

Maybe a faulty unit??

Will contact Vesternet tomorrow to see what they say…

If you have a device that functions fine, and yet reports “Can’t detect device”, the following may work for you;

  1. Change the variable CommFailure from “-1” to “0” (click outside the box to save)
  2. Clear the variable LastCommFailure (going from memory here; it is right next to the CommFailure) field (click outside the box)
  3. Go to the device settings, and change the “Automatically configure” to “no”

Once the “error” has cleared, step 3 (I think) keeps it cleared.

On a Fibaro switch FIBEFGS-212 I have the same thing. The main device and two extra that just duplicate its function. It happens both on UI5 and UI7 for that type of switch.

You can hide the 2 extra dimming devices by entering this in the test LUA window.
Code: [Select]
luup.attr_set(“invisible”,“1”,[device id])
To unhide;
Code: [Select]
luup.attr_set(“invisible”,“”,[device id])
.

On UI7 you need to do this only once. On Ui5 you would have to put the command to hide in the start up LUA or they will reappear after a LUUP reload.
