> Regarding using the old remote it’s not supported by Homey. You could however try to add the light to Homey and then try to pair the remote directly to the light. I think it will fail as the unit is not included in Homey but it’s worth a try.

It is working for this remote when you connect via the hue bridge, see this [thread](https://community.homey.app/t/philips-hue-zigbee-howto-add-livingcolor/2154/2) for explanation.

I agree with @johan_bendz it will probably not work for homey. Because it requires you to connect the remote to the zigbee bridge first. When homey is that bridge you will need to connect the remote to homey. Dont think it will work.

If somebody got that working, let us know!  
Would be really interesting
