Fibaro Relay Switch FGS 222 - Installation

[shcc (Jonas)]

Hi,

I just installed a Fibaro FGS 222 relay switch. Unfortunately I can not include it (not recognized as a Z-Wave Device Multichannel) nor know which of all the puplished SmartApps & device handlers I should use.

Does anybody has a short step by step guide (also incl. how to create the necessary virtual switch)?

Until now I found SmartApps and device handlers from:

Erocm123

Pukkahq

Fuzzsyb

Sorry, for the maybe stupid question. It’s my first time handling with external smartapps and device handlers but I really wanna make my installation running I already read the FAQ about Apps and Handlers and got whats their function and how to install them.

Thanks a lot,
Jonas

[OBSOLETE] Virtual Device Manager

VDM is a SmartApp that allows you to create virtual devices without needing to interact with the SmartThings web IDE. It currently creates devices of types “On/Off Switch Tile” and “Momentary Button Tile”, but adding future virtual device capability should be trivial if there’s anything out there with enough demand. You’ll need to publish each of the above device types for yourself. (New Device Type → From Template → Select Device → Save → Publish For Me). Once done, install the apps below and you’re off to the races! To install the SmartApps, simply copy and paste the code into the IDE. For the parent app, you’ll need to both “Save” and “Publish->For Me”. The child app can simply be saved. Then, install the “Virtual Device Manager” via your SmartThings mobile app as you would for …

FAQ: Creating a virtual Groovy Device [OBSOLETE]

Need a FAQ for the simplest version of this: a virtual on/off switch. Maybe even two FAQs, one for why you would want one with use case examples and one step by step how to for creating one in ST. Thanks! 2023 Update Since groovy will be going away soon, so will groovy virtual switches. See the new FAQ for on the replacements: FAQ: Creating Virtual Devices Without the IDE

I use the smart app and device handler from PukkaHQ. Works fine for me.

Thanks for your recommendation siwilson.

Is it correct, that I include the Fibaro Relay and then assign it online (ST homepage) to the created device handler or will it be automatically assigned/recognized?

Thanks!
