Notes #
Binding #
If you want to bind this remote directly to a group or light, bind cluster LevelCtrl
only (not LevelCtrl
and OnOff
). If both clusters are bound, a click on the remote toggles the bound group or light twice, thus neither turning it on or off. Cluster-specifc binding is most easily done in the frontend.
Pairing #
Press the button on the device 4 times (until the red light turns on).
Legacy integration #
By default (for backwards compatibility purposes) the legacy integration is enabled.
For new users it is recommended to disable this as it has several fundamental problems.
To disable the legacy integration add the following to your configuration.yaml
:
'0xabc457fffe679xyz':
friendly_name: my_remote
legacy: false
The information below only applies to the legacy integration.
Recommendation #
This device sends multiple messages in short time period with the same payload. It’s worth setting debounce
option with debounce_ignore: - action
to throttle them without losing unique action payloads.
E.g. (devices.yaml)
'0xabc457fffe679xyz':
friendly_name: my_remote
debounce: 0.5
debounce_ignore:
- action
To find optimal “smoothness” play with debounce time or if you need all unique rotation steps consider adding brightness
to debounce_ignore
option
'0xabc457fffe679xyz':
friendly_name: my_remote
debounce: 0.1
debounce_ignore:
- action
- brightness
