Hi is it possible to connect a Gira Senic wall switch (Friends of Hue) to Homey? I do not own a Hue Bridge If so, how do I set this up? If not, is it possible to make such a connection/compatibility? ---

I don’t think it will be able to work with my app… the friends of Hue devices do not follow the same specs as the Hue device does. @Charl can you add it as a generic device and interview it for me? ---

You won’t even be able to add it to Homey. The FoH switch does not want to connect to a Zigbee controller (according to the Zigbee specification) and is using only 4 Zigbee channels. The latter can be resolved by changing the Zigbee channel of your Homey; but you have to reconfigure the entire network. ---

Thank you all for your replys! I have returned the Gira FOH switches and bought a fibero 2 dimmer instead. So @johan_bendz I can’t add it anymore. Thanks again for your help ---

I have a lot of the Senic switches and a hue bridge. I want to change my whole system to homey now. Do you think there is a possibility in the future to add the senic Gira switches to homey? With or without the hue bridge doesn’t matter as long as I can use them in homey. Thank you
