Works perfectly so far. I had some problems with lost connection on the old DHT driver and will report back if I have any problems. Thanks and god work!
Hi @iquix! I accepted the invitation to install the drivers from earlier in this post. Would you post the install instructions for this shortcut button driver? I might be behind the curve with this knowledge, so if there is another place where you have posted that, I apologize for belaboring the request. Thank you for your help!
Please forgive my ignorance. Where do I find the available divers options? I’m not seeing it in IDE or the ST app. Certainly I am missing something here. Thank you for your help!
@iquix Thank you! I did all of those steps, and when I repeated them, it verified that I had installed a couple of drivers already (the zigbee button and the hue dimmer switch). But I get stuck on paring my device. How do I do that? Is there a generic way to add a zigbee device? I know how to pair a device that already has a profile/preset. But I’ve had trouble pairing the shortcut button with the IKEA on/off button preset. So past that, I don’t know what do to. Are the installed drivers supposed to show up in the app or the IDE dashboard?
Please forgive my ignorance here. I believe there is some critical information that I am just now aware of. But I don’t know what I am missing. Thank you again for your help!
@iquix Also, How do I install the edge driver for the ikea button. I see it on you git hub but it does not show up in you list of drivers. I installed the “zigbee button” driver from your list. Is that the same or is your ikea shortcut button different? Thanks again!
All you can do is repeating paring & deleting the device until it finally works.
For me, it took about 20~30 times repeating pairing & deleting to make this device work successfully with Edge Driver.
That’s why I’m not officially releasing this Edge Driver to the Community.
addendum>
‘zigbee button’ in my edge driver channel contains driver for “IKEA shortcut button”. No other IKEA buttons are supported with my Edge Driver.
@iquix Ah! Thank you! This helps me not feel so crazy with my experience with this thing. I Guess I’ll keep trying.
Here a few more questions, if you don’t mine answering:
Do you use the Ikea On/off button preset to pair the shortcut button, or something else?
How do I pair the Hue Dimmer switch?
Once a device is paired, is the driver automatically activated, or is there another step I need to do activate the driver I previously installed through your link?
@iquix Very cool! I will give this a shot! I need to figure out how to scan nearby devices without it picking up my hue bulbs that are already integrated through the connected app. Any thoughts on that? No big deal if not. Thanks again!
