Aqara/ Xiaomi Cube turotial

[Nephylim]

Hi,
I just setup zigbee2mqtt and it seems to work fine.

The only device that I cannot get to work is the xiaomi cube. It adds a couple of devices but I am not really sure what to do with them.
Is there a tutorial for setting up the cube in domoticz?

I added a shot of the created devices to my post.

Hi nephulim,

Just was wondering about that one.
In above picture you can push the green arrows to add the device you want i added the device that gives the switch not using batteries for now.

then i renamed my cube to CUBE1
then i added an ikea light and some other devices, but below the device to control is : zig-stalamp- ikea-e27

then i went to configuration settings and clicked on events, then i create a lua event.. with below. (devicetype)

HOpe this helps, cheers.

Code: Select all

commandArray = {}

print ("*****************   luacube2222    *******************");
if otherdevices['CUBE1'] == 'Rotate Left' then
 print('Lichtsterkte Naar Beneden')
 print(otherdevices_svalues['zig-stalamp- ikea-e27'])
 dimTo = (otherdevices_svalues['zig-stalamp- ikea-e27']-10)
 print(' nieuw:' .. dimTo .. ' ')
 commandArray['zig-stalamp- ikea-e27'] = 'Set Level:'..dimTo..' '
 commandArray['CUBE1'] = 'Off'
end

if otherdevices['CUBE1'] == 'Rotate Right' then
 print('Lichtsterkte Naar Boven')
 print(otherdevices_svalues['zig-stalamp- ikea-e27'])
dimTo = (otherdevices_svalues['zig-stalamp- ikea-e27']+10)
 print(' nieuw:' .. dimTo .. ' ')
 commandArray['zig-stalamp- ikea-e27'] = 'Set Level:'..dimTo..' '
 commandArray['CUBE1'] = 'Off'
end
return commandArray

Also sharing some other lua script for the other options.
I created for what I found on the internet . i do not know the source but nothing worked for me, and below does:

Hope this helps some people.

Code: Select all

--lua device
--maak groep Woonkamer Lampen en maak groep CUBE1 OFF en zet daarin je cube1 op niveau 0%
--maak de scene heu10 , hue60 , hue95 en zet daarin je apparaat heu lamp op het niveau

I always turn the CUBE1 to off again after firing
But could also be handy to not do that.

For the second script i have created a group called CUBE1 when you use that switch it puts the device itself to off.

Hope to find some fun other scripts here for the aqaura cube.
