Use Switches in Aeotec Nano Dimmer

Post by bluedog »

I have an Aeotec Nano Dimmer connected and working nicely with a clipsal bell press switch connected to S1. S2 is not connected to anything.

In the config for the Nano I see that the switches S1 and S2 can be configured to power the load and or other nodes. From this setting I presume I can access the status of S1 and S2 and link events to them in Domoticz.

But S1 and S2 don't appear in the list of devices as I imagined they would.

How can I link events to S1 and S2?

After hours of trying to solve this puzzle, I have discovered that S1 signals "Group 3" and S2 signals "Group 4".

How can I receive the events sent to these Z-Wave groups in Domoticz? Is it possible?

I have managed to add other z-wave devices directly to the groups, but I am still curious if I can add Domoticz itself to a group somehow?

I got it - just add as an Activation Device to a Scene.

How did you add it do a scene? Its no problem for me to bind S1 to a scene, but i don't get any response from S2. Not when i try to add a activation device and not as a "devicechanged" in my lua scripts. I also tried to associate group 4 to node 1 (my controller). Still no response.

Your end result would work perfect for me!

Anyone know how to get status from the extra button to Domoticz? Bluedog seems not active here anymore...
