hi all, i need help with a fibaro ruller shutter 3: i connected it but homey identifies it as a dimmer and the only possible command is that of light intensity. Why? Thanks for your help ---

Are you sure it is a roller shutter 3, as z-wave devices are included based on their internal ID’s which you can’t include incorrectly (even if you select a different brand’s device the correct one will be used). If you are really sure (try re-including) then you probably have a faulty device. Do keep in mind (based on your other post in another topic) just because it has a slider, doesn’t mean it is a dimmer, it just means that you can specify the closed amount of your shutter. ---

yes I am absolutely sure that it is a roller shutter 3, I also checked among the parameters of the advanced settings and in the section “specific device class” there is specific type class b motor control, also I have already tried to include it twice in the zwave network of homey. I assumed that homey had mistaken it for a dimmer because above the slider it says light intensity. do you think it might be useful to try to couple it to homey by selecting shutter 2 instead of 3? how can i verify that the device id is correct? thank you for the help ---

As stated above, you can include it as anything. E.g. for unsecure inclusion, there is workaround to add all devices trough walli switch. Device type will be correctly identified by Homey/Fibaro app. ---
