Hello. Does the ABC manager support scene-handling? In the description I have found that it support routines, but I don’t have this option when I configure it?
I am using Ikea 2 Button switch/dimmer and a ikea bulb.
Both are added to SmartThings hub.
I have installed ABC. Tested with other items and installation works.
This is what I am trying to achieve.
- pressing either button should toggle bulb on or off. On state should be latest used brightness.
- holding either button should increase/decrease brighness
I can get on/off but not increase/decrease.
Can anyone help me out?
Could there be an issue with the newest code. I get the following error when I try to create the smartapp:
“No signature of method: script_app_metadata_cf1ad1c9_6a4b_47bc_953c_76dbdf661d54.metadata() is applicable for argument types: (script_app_metadata_cf1ad1c9_6a4b_47bc_953c_76dbdf661d54$_run_closure1) values: [script_app_metadata_cf1ad1c9_6a4b_47bc_953c_76dbdf661d54$_run_closure1@3dc9353c] Possible solutions: getMetadata(), getState(), setState(java.lang.Object), metaClass(groovy.lang.Closure)”

I don’t believe the latest version of ABC handles Scenes in the new ST app. To get around this limitation what you can do is:
- Create a virtual switch
- Set up your Scene to do whatever you want AND turn off the virtual switch in step 1
- Set up an Automation (natively in the ST app) to run your Scene in step 2 whenever the switch in step 1 turns on.
You may need to manually turn the virtual switch off for the first time as I believe they all are created in the “on” position.
Can’t use the App - Need help!
Did i miss something? Want to use the App for the Aeotec Quad Wallmote

Hey, sorry to bother you all but I am new to SmartThings and not sure if I am missing a step. I have managed in install ABC via GitHub and I am also able to do device mapping and save it. However when I press the remote nothing happens, in the SmartThings app the remote Tradfri 5 button has not actions assigned. Is there a step I need to do to link ABC Smart App to Smartthings?
EDIT: Reset all my devices, reinstalled ABC and removed conflict from previous broken hub and Hey Presto! Amazing app, does what I need it to do

Hi,
Also a new user to smartapps and in particular this app.
I’ve added it to the IDE and when I went to configure it on my phone it gave me a networking error.
I actually get the same error when trying to use the virtual device creator app. That one worked once but stopped working a few months ago.
I would appreciate it if anyone could help.
Thank you
Thank you! This is what I needed. Great app!
Any chance to add thermostats as well. I want to use the Xiaomi Cube to control my A/C.
Not sure if others have had this issue, but I updated my smart app from the latest github code and it appeared to quit working. I had to go back to the versions before that and manually copy from github to get it working. It appears the issue might be with the child code, as it wouldn’t let me save it after I opened it, with it giving me an error.
Thanks for reporting a problem, I will have a look into that today and update this thread later
Please try and pull the latest version v1.210602 which should fix the problem.

In the new version, you may have to resave button settings for any that are using the dim functions. If you find a button no longer works then just resave that button.

Hello, I’m trying to use the app for basic light functions and it’s not cooperating…
When I add a “new button device mapping” in ABC Manager it creates/configures it fine, however the entry shows up as “ABC Child Creator” instead of the proper name, doesn’t actually work and you can’t click on it, it always displays “We’re having trouble connecting. Check your network connection and try again”. Like this: Imgur: The magic of the Internet
If I add an ABC Child Creator smartapp directly, bypassing the manager, it works for the first app, showing up as a functional entry and does what it’s supposed to… but not for any additional ones, they all get stuck on the “Next” screen which is not clickable, I have to kill the whole SmartThings app. Like this: Imgur: The magic of the Internet
Using a Galaxy S9 with the new SmartThings app, the old app is long gone and not available.
Any known issues? What else can I do?
EDIT: looked at log, it’s failing as so:

EDIT3:
Ok, I fixed it, by adding if (prefDetail != null) {} around whatever code that’s trying to dereference the null object, both in def buttonEvent() and in def getDescDetails(). Perhaps you can add this to the handler in case other devices do this crap…
Ok, I might have been doing this wrong, I was selecting the button directly, instead of going into the device, then selecting the button inside it… the way above only worked for button 1, not any of the rest. I hate how ST displays multiple versions of same controllers, argh…
Question: is there handling of double or triple clicking in ABC? I see only push and hold, but this Fibaro remote supports more…
Hi,
I’m going to uninstall both my main & child apps to see if I get the same problem on a new build. I’ll let you know

I have started work on a complete code check/tidy within the develop & feature branches of the Github repo.
Feel free to try them out and please report any problems to me.
I have taken the big step of deleting all of my child apps so non of my automation works until I have tested each and every option that is available (where devices are available)
I hope to get this completed in the next 7-10 days

@Paul_Sheldon Increase and decrease level on Dimmers and Light Colour Temperature are no longer working. I can create on and off actions no problem.
I use to have increase and decrease before working flawlessly.
Where can I find older version of ABC?
