[quote=“Don Phillips, post:140, topic:191115”][quote=“ListerD, post:139, topic:191115”]Sengled Element Classic A19 bulbs work with vera plus. Just got two of them installed and worked like a champ. Shows up as urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:DimmableLight:1 Using minimotes for scene control of on/off and dimming.
Replaced a couple of TCPLighting bulbs I’ve been limping along with that were more trouble than they were worth.[/quote]
Are you connecting the A19’s directly to Vera or using a hub with a plug-in?[/quote]
Directly to the Vera. I selected the following from the device list:
Dimmable LED Light Bulb
OSRAM SYLVANIA iQBR30
Vera recognized that it was not the item being connected, but added it successfully. Metadata for the device shows Sengled and device type was set to: urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:DimmableLight:1
[quote=“stevencurl, post:125, topic:191115”][quote=“ListerD, post:124, topic:191115”]Took a chance on the Visonic Window/Door Sensor (model MCT-340E). Zigbee HA1.2 compliant. They were very cheap, but listed as Samsung SmartThings only. They do work on Vera Plus, but there was a trick. Adding them as a generic zigbee device did nothing. The device would not pair after several attempts. I instead tried to pair it as a NYCE door window sensor. Vera recognized it was not that device, but paired it successfully. Have installed 2 so far and they’re working great.
Also bought the Bosch Motion Sensor (PIR w/Pet Immunity) model ISQ-ZPR1-WP13. Same deal. Would not recognize as a generic zigbee. Tried again as an NYCE motion sensor and again, Vera reported it was not that device, but then paired it successfully as a motion sensor. Also functioning properly so far.[/quote]
I am also struggling to pair the Bosch Motion Sensor (zigbee). It seems to stuck in “configuring”. When I take the battery out, it seems to try and configure and then fails… Does someone have a solution for this? The Bosch sensors are amazing - I just need to get them to work with good ol’ Vera
I tried doing this exact thing and the Bosch motion is stuck endlessly “configuring”. Did yours do that as well? It will also disappear from the interface randomly while in this state, but Home-Assistant sees it completely fine…[/quote]
I tried to pair an Aqara Temperature and Humidity sensor… it seemed to pair, but them i couldn’t even fine it in The device list. I can only see it in The AltUI
Trying to pair a Zigbee Sengled Element Classic Bulb E11-G13. But I can’t find Zigbee listed under devices to pair. Only generic Z-wave. Where do you all see the Zigbee device option? Thanks
I’ve got the Element Classic A60 (E11-G23) recognized as a urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:DimmableLight:1 by adding it as a Dimmable LED Light Bulb OSRAM SYLVANIA iQBR30.
I’ve also got the Element Downlight (E1A-AC2) recognized as a urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:DimmableLight:1 again by adding it as a Dimmable LED Light Bulb OSRAM SYLVANIA iQBR30.
As ListerD mentions the VERA pops up a warning stating the device you are adding doesn’t match the device you have selected, but lets you add anyway.

Just wondering if you were able to get them to associate as a group. I just added a bunch of Ecosmart GU10s, this went well but associations did not work. Because I have several to a fixture it would be nice to dim them as a group. Were you able to find an easy way to do this with your minomte?
Sorry to revive an old thread - but things seem to have changed with Zigbee and Vera (at least Vera Plus). I just bought a ZigBee Samsung SmartThings water leak sensor and to my surprise, it paired right up and showed up as two devices (Flood Sensor and Temperature Sensor). It seems to work just fine - except a glitch where the flood sensor’s name keeps going back to ‘Generic Zigbee Device’ everytime it is tripped.
Cannot report on the LED products, but just wanted to report that, using a Philips Hue hub, I am fully able to use the cheap Livarno Lux white and RGBW bulbs, E27 and GU10, available through LIDL in the UK. After easy standard pairing withe the Hue hub and a refresh in my VeraPlus, they appear in the Vera devices and are fully controllable in the GUI, but more importantly in Scenes and Reactor. I am still getting to an understanding of what the 5 factors in the RGB color variable mean.
But it is great to now have a functioning Hue setup without the absolutely rip-off prices that Philips charge. Once the investment in the Hue hub is done, the rest is doable
By the way, has anyone tried integrating any other Livarno Lux devices? Also does the Livarno Lux hub happen to work with Tuya or Sonoff devices? (Not that I really want to add another hub but wold be nice to know)
For an RGBW bulb, In the variable “CurrentColor” or “RGBColor”, is a string such as “0=0,1=0,2=255,3=13,4=83”. I believe the last three, factors 2-4 are the RGB values when in colour mode. The first two 0-1, are to whether the bulb is in Colour or White Temperature mode, but I have not figured out how yet. The variable LampHexValue, holding something like “#FF0D53” only holds the colour when in colour mode. It does not change if in White Temperature mode. Anyone care to enlighten me?
