Home Easy HE876

Post by johnym30 »

Hi everyone,
i just started using domoticz with the rflink and it is just amazing!!!!!
I have a problem with a Home Easy Dimmer HE876.
I try to set it up manual because i don't have a control for it. I choose switch type dimmer, type HE EU i give it an id of 0000042 and it creates the switch.
The device is listening to the command, it turns on, but when i press again the button to turn it off, it dimms up and down until i press the button again. and when i move the slider instead of dimming it turns off!!!!!
Is there any way to correct this??
Thanks in advance.

If i recall correctly you can't dim those units with domiticz via the slider.
The best way is to use the manual switch (where the dimmer is built in) Swtich the switch twice, which should start the auto dim function.
As soon the light is to the appropriate level, turn the switch off.
Only use Domoticz to switch the unit on/off.

To avoid more annoyance, use scenes and always switch the unit first off, then on. This avoids that you send 2 times the on function which will cause the dimmer to start the auto dim function again. like below:
