Has anyone been able to get the IKEA 5-button remote to work with ST? I can pair it but I can’t find a device type that will recognize the buttons. I tried creating the DTH found below but when I look at the device in the IDE, the only capabilities I see are battery and status. When I look at the device in the (classic) app, there are no buttons.
When I look at the event list in the IDE, I do see the battery level is being updated so I know ST is talking to the device. I think I just need to find the correct DT. I’ve looked at other threads and it appears others have tried without success but wanted to see if anyone has made any progress in the last few months. As a note, I’m still using a V1 hub. TIA.
The button is now supported just FYI. It pairs directly and works (at least mostly so far) but Im having a couple weird issues Im trying to figure out.
OK, so I’m in the UK, I can pair the 5 button remote to either the driver or smartthings, not both. If I pair to the driver I can dim, brighten, toggle on & off.
Pairing to smartthings I can set set the brightness, or toggle on & off.
Anybody got any idea how I can make the buttons dim or brighten the lights (I.e. Holding the brighten button gradually brightens the light rather than stepping the light up to say 75%)?
I have paired the 5 button remote to Tradfri lightbulbs meanwhile they were already paired to Smartthings.
To pair to Smartthings used the 5 press reset on the button. Paired the lightbulb to Smartthings too, by doing the 6 on/off.
Then I paired the remote to the bulb by holding close to the bulb and holding the pairing button for 10 seconds and waited for the lightbulb to flicker.
I haven’t got a driver, but I would think you can do the same with that as I did with the lightbulb.
Do you have a webcore piston that does this? I couldn’t get it to continuously dim or brighten, so I just set it to 5% increments with multiple presses, but that’s not as ideal as simply holding to continuously dim or brighten.
