zigbee2mqtt and Ikea

Hi
I am trying to switch from RTF433 to Zigbee.
I am using the cc2531 stick and zigbee2mqtt.
So far I paired an Ikea E1603 wall socket.
That worked after a few tries.
Altough, the router from it appears as,
--------------
{"type":"response","requestid":3,"isError":false,"payload":[]}
Last seen:23020-07-31 13:36:44
Type: General, Text
--------------------------
with for me unexplaned text, but it is working.
(in a picture, but I dont know how in insert a picture :-)

Now I paired an Ikea E1743 on/off switch.
So far so good. I can tockel the switch and connect it with blocky to trigger an event.
I like to use only the on/off functions and not the up/down/stop functions of that switch.
Is there a way to disable those three?

I always read about groups with Ikea switches. I don't understand what I have to do with that, why and how to do it.

Anyway, is there someone who works with Zigbee2mqtt and Ikea as well and can give me some advice?

I recently switched from the ikea hub plugin to zigbee2mqtt. I had a couple of issues that I managed to resolve. Let me know if you stiull have problems. If so, read my last posts. If then you still struggle, PM me.

I think you can simply edit the switch from the dashboard and remove the selector levels.
