[APP] Fibaro - Your home is your castle (by Athom)

So I reached out to Athom who didn’t want to provide any help on this…
Can someone who has set up associations advise what I might be doing wrong (or share a screenshot)

You probably don’t mean “Grouping”(can be done with the Group App), but “Association Group”

maybe you also have to configure the 2nd Association Group for ON/OFF?

Thanks. Yes, i mean association group.

According to the fibaro manual it states only to add it to the one (i’ve actually tried all ways around)

Good morning,

i am desperate with my Fibaro Double Switch 2. i have installed 3 in the house, with 2 momentary switches each connected to S1. I have played around with associations and scene ID in the last days.

How do i manage to send normal scenes with 1x, 2x, 3x click. If I now click 1x then the flow is activated where I have set 2x click. Especially I experimented with parameters 27, 28, 29, 30. What are the recommended settings here, or how can I restore the original state?

In the meantime I would be happy if I could switch different flows with 1x, 2x, 3x click.

With 1x click I would like to switch not only the light connected to Q1 but 3 others, I have a flow, how do I prevent that the 1x click switches the connected light source and starts the flow instead?

This is the flow:

What is parameter 10?

Regards

Philipp

Did you select the right switch type connected in the advanced settings?

This isn’t possible, it will always switch the corresponding output, either with a delay (parameter 10) or instant, but it will always switch eventually, even with the 2x and 3x click of the input it will do this, you could switch it off again afterwards, but it will be on for at least a moment.
If you only connected 1 output (Q1), then connect you switches to S2, then Q1 won’t be switched

Hello,

yes momenatary switch, i can only select the button at S1, at S2 ic always gets an error message, it cannot be adjusted.

thanks, but can i tell him to switch on the source at q1 and at the same time use flow to switch on another lamp?

best regards

philipp

Yes, the settings shouldn’t be visible at all for child devices (like the S2), that is a bug in the Homey software.

Of course, you’ll have to make a flow for every situation you want including a seperate one for on and off
IE: [IF] (switch 1) turned on [THEN] (switch 2) turn on

which other parameters have you set in the expert settings with raw parameters?

None at all, all settings on default worked (for me) as it should, maybe the type of switch attached not sure what the default was, but that is a setting in the advanced settings anyway.
Though I only use the inputs as all my lights are philips hue, so your situation might differ.

thanks, and you left parameter 28 at default? He’s not sending any scenes?

Yes, parameter 28 should be set by Homey during pairing to allow for all scenes (value 15), though 1 of my 4 switch 2’s didn’t receive it so needed to enable that manually, but can also be done by re-including.

Ok thansk, si it’enaugh to set in adavanced options the value to 28,1,15, correct withou reincluding it?

Indeed that is enough to Enable it manually

hello, i also wanted to set associations, i.e. by switching on the light on S1, the source Q1 is switched on and at the same time 3 other associated z-wave lights are switched on. then a single click would switch on Q1 including the z-wave lights (without needing a flow). 2 times and 3 times could then switch a flow. do you have to change parameter 28 so that no scene ID is sent for a single click? e.g. 28,1,6

thanks

Just for information: The Walli Switch was added in the latest update.

The Fibaro Walli Switch cannot be added correctly in Single Switch mode. It will then only be added as a “Basic Z-Wave Device”.
In Double Switch operating mode the switch can be added without errors.
Has anyone had similar experiences?

Not sure if this is correct place but… i have a flow which gets triggered when (Fibaro) Device smoke alarm turned on. The flow will then start speaking Fire alarm on Homey speaker.

During last week this flow got triggered twice at night when Homey got upgrade and restarted itself.I thought smoke alarm is turned on when there is smoke.

For a workaround, i can have a flow which triggers when Homey restarts and then disables the alert flow + enables it after 2 minutes.

Is there some way to fix this properly without workaround. Or am i understanding the usage of ”smoke alarm turned on” completely wrong?

Does it only happens after an update or also when you restart homey manually?
Can you also please share your flow?

Every time Homey restarts, be it from manual, update or blackout. Flow attached, in then clauses there`s nothing special, just notifications, mobile popups and trigger for another flow which repeats Homey talking Fire alarm…

That’s not a Fibaro App issue it’s a homey core issue maybe.
If you grouped several smoke detectors to one Group Device. This group device start after reboot with the status smoke alarm aktiv and first after few seconds it’s show the real Staus. The same behavior shows a group device for contact sensors.
That means that the status of a group devices after a reboot is always on and don’t reflect the real status of the grouped devices after the first seconds after a reboot.
Bug or Feature?!

Edit: The same when you restart the Group App. Also for lights not only for sensors.
