Aeotec Smart Dimmer 6 and normal lamps
Posted: Friday 21 July 2017 6:41
Hi,
I'm using the latest Domoticz git checkout along with the latest openzwave (1.5) git checkout and a Aeotec Gen 5 USB controller.
The Aeotec Smart Dimmer 6 securely pairs with no problem. The dimmer will also turn on and off (LED goes green when on and blue when off).
The problem I am seeing is that my regular (non-dimming) lamps are always powered even when the dimmer is off (blue LED). Is this expected or is my unit broken?
When I plug in something that has 3 prongs (positive, negative, and ground) the device plugged in is not powered when the dimmer is off and is powered when the dimmer is on... so that works, but my lamps are only 2 prong. :-/
