Hello all, I have bought for my roller shutters, some monostable switches with 2 actions (up/down). Behind them, I will put a fibaro fgr 223 module which should be able to start scenes with multiple actions on the switch. As example, a double clic on up switch = all roller shutters from the room opens, triple clic = all house.  
I know this is working on jeedom box (a french box) but I would like to know if there is any chance to see it on Homey Pro ?

Thank you

I don’t use FGR-223 my own, but in the app store you can see that there are action cards for scene activation:

So it’s probably possible.

Alright, hopefully you are right. I am not a native English speaker, and I don’t have yet the home automation vocabulary, this is why I still struggle to understand descriptions in the App Store.  
Does switch 1 is for up and switch 2 for down ? And then how to define a scene from multi action on these ? To me this is not yet clear. Thanks a lot for your quick feedback btw !  
Let’s see if some user has already faced this situation.

In Homey you’ll get 2 devices instances,  
one for the left switch and output (S1),  
and one for the right switch/output (S2)  
Both these devices have a separate “turned on” and “turned off” flow triggers.

Scene activation, which is a separate flow trigger, you can select (under the S1 device) the corresponding scene action card for both switches (S1 and S2), which is a flow trigger so you can do anything you want not just activate scenes (that is just how Z-Wave calls it), and has S1 has 4 options (1x press, 2x press, hold and release) and S2 has 5 options (1x press, 2x press, 3x press, hold and release).

That seems very good 😊. Thanks a lot for feedback ! So basically, any switch used with a fgr 223 can became a switch to launch a flow. Great 👍🏼

Hi all, so I have received my homey pro and started to test the fibaro fgr 223 with a double switch. First surprise was to see that up/downs was inverted, so I inverted the output on the fgr parameters and it works. Then I tried to create a flow for a s1 and s2 switch of my blind. I did a flow as following, when S2 is pressed 2x all the blinds of the room must be closed. Tried the flow through the homey app it worked perfectly, but when I tried to pressed 2x the switch itself, nothing happened… I tried to find a solution but can’t find it…

You have to activate scenes in the advanced device settings:

Thanks a lot for the quick answer :). It works perfectly now haha !  
For those who also struggle, to unlock both 2x press and 3x press, you have to put the number 7 on each switch.

You’re welcome!  
You can fill in 15, then all functions, including _ **Key hold down and key released** _, will be come available.

Yes thank you. Now I have to find a way to group my blinds. The app group seems not able to group blinds sadly.  
Cheers  
Luc  
Edit : i did find the way to do it ! Only 1 parameter needs to be selected in the group. This is tilt set.

Choose as typ _ **Blinds** _ and as ability _ **Set blinds percentage** _.  
This works with my Fibaro Walli Roller Shutter.

So simple and yet so hard to find. Thank you! You’re a life saver.

Just to help some newbees like we all were:

1. Go to the roller shutter 3 settings.
2. Scroll down to Switch 1 scenes.
3. Fill the empty field Switch 1 scenes with the number 15.
4. Do the same for Switch 2.

I haven’t found a way to do the same with the Fibaro Roller Shutter 4. Can’t find the Switch 1 and Switch 2 fields.
