I couldn’t add the 2020. See a 1.1.1 version in AppStore. Could not update to it. Removed the old one. Can’t install the new one ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/a/3a728f460b9dfa1d5c85f449f971b17ddf3b0095.jpeg) ---

Perhaps it requires firmware 4.2.0? Assuming that you’re on 4.1.0, which is still the current stable version. ---

EcoDim app is compatible with the current stable release: “compatibility”: “\>=4.0.0”, @Andre_van_Dalen, you must be running a pre 4.x release; which version is that? ---

Ik heb update kunnen uitvoeren… I was finally able to update ! Apparently homey and WiFi were arguing since a longer time. I added homey to guest network and that worked as my regular network and phone hotspot didn’t work ---

I tried to pair a zigbee .07 ecodim dimmer, but the pairing seems to take forever. I have another one already installed (differently wired) and that one is running successfully. Was a zigbee .07 2019 dimmer removed with the latest update? ---

No, no dimmers removed in the latest updates. But I also don’t expect this to be the cause; since if there would not be a match (due to missing driver), it would end up with a generic Zigbee device. What steps did you already try to include the dimmer? ---

It was solved eventually, unfortunately not clear what solved it. Both a factory reset and a reset of the homey eventually did the trick. ---

Can you help me by sharing your experience/advice with your **ECO-DIM.07** , as I’m considering buying a bunch of them for my new house; 1. Do you recommend the **[Basic](https://www.ecodim.nl/eco-dim07-zigbee-basic.html) or [Pro](https://www.ecodim.nl/eco-dim07-zigbee-pro.html)**? 2. Do you recommend Zigbee or Z-wave (and why)? 3. How stable & responsive is your setup (never an issue, a few times a year / month / week)? If you want to know more about my new situation and share your opinion / advice, please check; [Zou jij je slimme verlichting ook zo inrichten in je nieuwe huis?](https://community.homey.app/t/zou-jij-je-slimme-verlichting-ook-zo-inrichten-in-je-nieuwe-huis/42450) ---

Ik probeer een ecodim 8 knops schakelaar te pairen maar er gebeurt helaas niks. I’ve got an EcoDim switch 8 buttons but it’s not pairing for some reason. I already: -reboot homey -upgrade to 7.0 -give homey no power for 30 mins. -held it very close to homey -removed 3 end devices to make sure theres space to add -reset the ecodim switch and tried again to pair. Anything else I can try? Edit: when trying to pair the light flashes 6 times which seems to be correct when paired, but the pairing page in the app remains the same. Maybe this is helpfull for the ones who made the app. ---

The app works fine for an Ecodim 7, however I just bought the Ecodim 5 but is not available in the app yet. The right channel in recognized as a single Ecodim 7 & 10. the left channel is not recognized at all. Is there any chance of adding the Ecodim 5 ZigBee in the near future ? Thanks, Mike ---

Hi Mike, you told the ecodim.7 works fine. I’ve also bought the ecodim.7 but sometimes it won’t dim by a flow. After dim manually, the flow works again. Did you have the same problem or do you have found a work around? Regards Richard ---

Sorry Richard, I did not use the community for a while, and got no notification that there was a message for me. I don’t have that problem with the Ecodim 7 but I used to have that exact problem on the Right channel of the Ecodim 05 for a year, very annoying to say the least. Since a couple of months the problem disappeared. I don’t know if there was any upgrade on the app or on homey that fixed it. I hope the same happened to your installation. Regards and sorry again, Mike ---

I think that the 10 seconds in that card is not a timer to start the next card. If you put a “pause” between the 2 cards of 11 seconds then it will maybe work. So after 11 seconds the card is started to see if the zone is active. But i am not sure about that. ---

What should that dim card do exactly you think? I don’t use that card. ---

I still think it is not a waiting card for the next card. The 10 second card is only for dimming the light, it doesn’t care what the next card does. But maybe I am wrong. @TedTolboom? ---

> [@JvdMeulen](#): > > I don’t think that’s how it’s supposed to work. > > Is that an athom-bug or a app-bug? It is your wrong assumption, the light is instructed to start a fade to x% over n time. But once that is started the card is ready. O, and the duration is a standard build in Homey option. That can only be enabled or disabled by the developer and create a parameter to send to the device.
