Fibaro dimmer parameter 14 - using a double switch

I have just bought the fibaro FGD-211 dimmer, and it works perfectly with one switch.
However I cannot figure out how to use it with a double switch.
Looking in this thread it looks like it has been worked on before and solved. But i cannot see some of the other parameters in the configuration.
The firmware of the dimmer is 2.2, I'm using indigo 6.03, and here's the module profile:

Is it possible for anyone to help me?

Re: Fibaro dimmer parameter 14 - using a double switch

What specifically are you trying to do with the double switch? And what happens when you try to use the 2nd switch?

Do you have the Enable scene commands checkbox enabled?

Re: Fibaro dimmer parameter 14 - using a double switch

Hi matt,
I'm trying to make the second switch disconnect an airplay speaker. Yes I have enabled scene commands, but i don't know how to use it. Can you please explain it to me?

Re: Fibaro dimmer parameter 14 - using a double switch

It may not work yet (I'm not sure anyone has tried it). Try the following:

1) Select the Interfaces->Z-Wave->Configure... menu item, then turn on the debug logging checkbox.

2) Press the ON/OFF buttons for the main switch, then copy/paste the Event Log result into a reply for me.

3) Press the ON/OFF buttons for the secondary switch, then copy/paste the Event Log result into a reply for me.

This is what happens when i turn the main switch on and off:

Z-Wave Debug RCVD sceneActivateCmd: 01 0A 00 04 00 05 04 2B 01 10 FF 35
Z-Wave Debug . . sceneActivateCmd: node 005, scene: 16
Z-Wave received "Dimmer køkken" scene 16
Z-Wave Debug RCVD requestDimmerStatus: 01 09 00 04 00 05 03 26 03 00 D1

Z-Wave Debug . . sceneActivateCmd: node 005, scene: 16
Z-Wave received "Dimmer køkken" scene 16


This is what happens when i turn the second switch on and off:

Z-Wave Debug RCVD sceneActivateCmd: 01 0A 00 04 00 05 04 2B 01 1A FF 3F
Z-Wave Debug . . sceneActivateCmd: node 005, scene: 26

Re: Fibaro dimmer parameter 14 - using a double switch

I will need to extend Indigo's model definition for the FGD211 so that it creates Indigo Triggers for those scene commands. I can probably have that done in the next Indigo release (6.0.4).

That sounds great! Do you have an estimate for the release date?
Thanks for the super support.

Indigo 6.0.4 is now available and includes support to change parameter 14 of the Fibaro double switch.

Re: Fibaro dimmer parameter 14 - using a double switch

Code: Select all
 Event   Switch Action
  10     change from turn off to turn on s1
  11     change from turn on to turn off s1
  12     hold click s1
  13     release click s1
  14     double click s1
  15     triple click s1
  16     single click s1
  17     up
  18     down
  20     change from turn off to turn on s2
  21     change from turn on to turn off s2
  22     hold click s2
  23     release click s2
  24     double click s2
  25     triple click s2
  26     single click s2

Using the above scene commands on a Fibaro Dimmer (FGD211), I want to be able to:

  • Use a single click to dim to 50% if light is off,
  • Use a single click switch the light off if the light is on
  • Use a hold click to set the level to 100%
  • Use a double click to activate an action group: Living Room Lights On
  • Use a triple click to activate an action group: Living Room Lights Off
So I defined a trigger (Z-Wave Event) for every scene command , but I'm having trouble to getting it to work. The light flashes, or the action is not executed at once.

The device is configured like this:

Am I on the right track? I'm under the impression that performance might be an issue (since I've more dimmers which require triggers).

Re: Fibaro dimmer parameter 14 - using a double switch

Can you post screenshots of one of your triggers for someone familiar with this model to compare to their own?

Also, I presume you've got relevant conditions set on the single-click triggers otherwise both will fire together.

Here's one of my triggers:

It should activate the configured action group, but sadly it doesn't.

I also have two single click events with different conditions, but I see why this might not work since they contradict each other and triggers are handled in parallel.

In Fibaro you define a scene (LUA script) in which you handle the scenes. Would this be possible in Indigo? Execute a script passing the Z-wave scene event as a parameter?

Re: Fibaro dimmer parameter 14 - using a double switch

Is scene 14 showing up in your log when you double click the same way 16 and 26 were?

If not try re-enabling the double click tick box. I think you may need that enabled in order for it to register double clicks for scenes.

Re: Fibaro dimmer parameter 14 - using a double switch

Oh and have a search for lightwaverf, I think it's the initial installation thread that Durosity posted a script so you just have one trigger for a mood controller and then parse the last command received.

Re: Fibaro dimmer parameter 14 - using a double switch

The problem may be that the scene command is sent after the status of the switch is updated, so in your first case if the switch is off and you press the local s1 switch the status is updated to on before the scene is received. If you execute the trigger from Indigo I'm assuming the correct result is achieved?
