Hi,

I’ve tried to search the forum for answers, but it really is a jungle here 🙂

Im going to replace my current dimmers to dimmers where i can double click the button to trigger different scenarios.

What i wish is for the dimmers to do the following:  
1 Click - Turn light on  
1 Click plus hold - Dim up / down  
2 Click dim to X plus turn off light Y.

I have been looking at the fibaro dimmer 2, but not sure if this dimmer has that capabillity ?  
If not, what dimmer should I get ?

Yes, you can do that with Fibaro dimmer 2.

To be more specific: Yes you can do that with Fibaro dimmer2. But you need to set the configuration correct first.

- Open dimmer settings
- Advanced settings
- Switch type: pulsedrukschakelaar (no idea how that is called in English)
- At “ruwe configuratie parameters” (raw configuration?) type “28,1,15;29,1,15;” (without the quotes). This arranges for the double and triple click actions to be send through.

And then make the flows:

Fibaro dimmer 2 shall do what you want. Best used with a momentary switch (one with a spring, that only has one position). And look at the wiring requirement’s, can be quite a puzzle to get existing setups wired correctly. I have about 20 of these in my house… And several where I use the S2 for controlling my scenes.

Just in case you are still stuck, I think you need to set ‘Double click’ to OFF. I think that setting overrides the scene activation so it will just go to 100% on a double click instead of sending the command to your Homey.

By the way, what kind of switch do you have the Fibaro Dimmer connected to? In your Advanced Settings it says momentary switch (which I would recommend), but your flow refers to a toggle switch.

Assuming you have a momentary switch:  
Change the “When” card to “Dimmer 2 scene (momentary) Pressed left (S1) 2x”
