I have a Homey Pro 23 and linked to that a bridge. In my dashboard it showes as ok, but it says that it is not control able. What is wrong? ---

Nothing is wrong, but you’re not the only one who gets confused by that message; The complete message is just a note, not a warning: “The device works fine, but you cannot control it” Because the bridge is not something you can turn off or dim. It’s just an extension to Homey, which you can select to use for 433MHz, IR and bluetooth. It should act as zigbee & z-wave router by itself. ---
