Hmm actually it seems to have paired itself with my Aeotec multi sensor of it’s own accord, just walked into my kitchen and the light magically came on of it’s own accord, anyone have any ideas how to fix this mess?
Cheers

You need to send an unpair command to it. In the ST app Press where it says home and it should show you some Zigbee/Zwave utilities. Try a general exclusion by selecting it from the app, and then within 30s triple press the button on the Fibaro. That should release it from all previous pairings. Then go to add a device in ST and while it is searching try the triple press again.
The triple press (on and off which might be 6 presses of a toggle switch) should take ~2s in my experience. Hopefully you have some luck with that!
Edit, re-read and seen that you have tried this. All I can suggest is trying to do a few exclusions back to back to make sure it definitely receives the signal to unpair…
Thanks for the reply. I’ve given up with it, my other devices seem fine with the exclusion and add, but this thing is a complete nightmare. I’m going to return it as faulty and I’ve ordered a Quibino device instead, hoping to swap it out today.
Hi all,
Like a few of us here, I’m a bit of a noob when it comes to circuits and electrics. I’ve just purchased the Fibaro FGS 223 Double Switch, so I can control 2 separate lights from a single 2-gang switch. I was hoping it would be straight forward, but I guess not.
I’ve attached an image of my backbox, and I’m not too sure exactly which wires go where. I could take a guess, but would rather not.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, and would help restore some dignity in the household!
Thanks
The two wires coming out of each L1 are your wires going to the lightbulbs, i.e. these are the things that go to the output of the Fibaro.
The two browns at the top (COM) are live, yours is wired in a loop so you will need to keep these two wires connected to each other (or it may stop other lights working in your house). Both of these will therefore connect to the live pin on the Fibaro (maybe through a plastic connection to hold the wires together). You can lose the
The blue cables with the plastic connection is your neutral, again this will be a loop, hence keep them connected together and add a wire which goes to neutral on the Fibaro.
That said I would add that is this is to much, get somebody else to do it for you or you risk a fire risk. One other thing you can do is take a picture before you start so you know you can return to do if you need to.
Hi, first of all many thanks to the community and all the help / advice provided.
I have been installing a fibaro relay switch (FGS 222) for my gate, but I am experiencing 2 issues :
1st : when I want to open the gate, it works fine,I hit the switch, and the gate opens. But when I want to close it after a few minutes it works 1 time out of 3… it’s supposed to work the same way on the gate side… maybe should I double wire with the second switch ,
2nd : the relay is supposed to work more like a pressed button, to send just a short pulse. When I open the gate, I turn my simulated switch to “on”… and then I use IFTTT to reset it to off. I could also use CORE. Am I missing something in the FGS config to have it work like a button ?
Thanks for your help
Im afraid Im not sure with this device type, but if you use the one I have created (modified from [deleted]'s and Eric’s) then you can first of all create a separate button that should be more reliable. Plus if you click on the settings icon at the top right, then you can set the auto off time for the relay (parameter 3 and 4 from memory). If you set this to 2s or something like that then when you press on, it will auto turn off after 2seconds.
hi
nice work but I have problem
I go to settings and I can’t save my changes says “please fill out all reqired felds”
what goes wrong?
I have skated through the thread so not certain what device handler you are referring to but I can say that what you are describing is something I have come across which is a bug. From memory I believe you initially need to make the changes in the IDE simulator. Hopefully someone with more knowledge can expand on this.
