Centralite ZigBee HA Dimmers (3385001-ZHA-W): help needed updating. Will pay for guaranteed function

I have a custom DTH that worked perfect under the old app but now needs updated for the new app. I’m a hobbyist, not a developer so I haven’t been able to figure this out on my own doing research. I’m hoping someone can help fix this existing DTH.

What problems are you having with it? Details view won’t load in the new app? It may be as simple and removing the device and re-adding it.

Does it still work in the Classic App?

@bban, the switch actuates in the new app but dimming function does not work in the new app. All functionality works fine in classic.

Add a debug log in the setLevel function and see if it’s getting called when you move the slider from the live logging view which is accessible is the IDE. Also print out the value to see if it changes.

How exactly do I add the debug and print the value?

Ad this line right after ‘def setLevel(value) {’ line
log.debug "setLevel called. Value: $value"

Here is what I received in the live log after changing dimmer lever from app 2 times

Each time the app sends a pop up error saying “A network or server error occurred. Try again later.”

Is the code you posted what is running? I see the log ‘level updated successfully’ but I don’t see that in the code. Did you add that? Where?

I’m not an expert but it’s very weird it would work on the old app and not the new one, the set level method is being called from the new app so it should work.

The other thing that concerns me is the parse method is not parsing the response from the zigbee device after set Level is executed. This is not setting the level in the device state, but you should still see the device physically dim.

Here is what is running at the time of this posting

There have been numerous changes in requirements for DTH in the new app. Many won’t work at all. I’m fortunate mine works a little bit.

I do see the bulbs physically dim but the app no longer reflects the current dimming state so I never know where it actually is.

At some point in time we can assume your Zigbee lightbulb changed how it responded or the DTH was updated to not parse it correctly. You can add more debug statements in the parse method where you’re catching all. You might be able to figure out what the level change clusterId is and make a switch case that handles that state change.

However, If that is too daunting, we can cheat (not recommended). If your willing to assume that the device did dim we can update the state within setLevel so hopefully the app will represent the correct state but you may still get network error messages.

def setLevel(value) {
    log.debug "setLevel called. Value: $value"
    zigbee.setLevel(value*39/100)
    state.level = value
    sendEvent(name: "level", value: value)
}

Thanks for the help. The DTH was never updated, the problem is how the new app processes the DTH. Adding debug statements and trying to trace the event is a bit too daunting.

I tried the changes you recommended. The network error is gone but now it doesn’t dim at all. Remove the changes and it goes right back to dimming as before and the error is back.

The new app doesn’t process the DTH. The DTH is executed in the cloud (i.e. SmartThings servers). I can try to update the DTH for you but you’ll need to collect some more information for me. Specifically the ‘msg’ value when you dim the light. If I can see that I can try to update it.

Also, for the cheat you can move the two lines I added above the zigbee call and see what happens.

@bban , I do appreciate all of your help with this. The cheat did help but still get warnings in the logs.

Is this the ‘msg’ value you are referring to?

I need more logging in the parseCatchAllMessage method. Specifically log out the ‘msg’. Also post the logs from when you setLevel

I’m not exactly sure how to accomplish what you are asking for, sorry. Can you give me an example?
