It doesn’t work with the two-button one right?
Not this driver, but I have another one that does

Thanks for the edge driver @lmullineux, i love it 
I wanted a more than four function remote to control Sonos in my living room, and this works perfectly. I understand Ikea limits it from being 8 funtion but this gives me; play, pause, skip, previous, volume up (to 50%) and volume down (15%)…brilliant! Thanks again!
Im using this for like half a year now, and still works great, never had to replace the battery!
Big thanks!
Thank you very much for your driver!
Just coming by to say thank you. Had a Sonoff button to control 3 gates, which was annoying with the long and double press. And the one in the garage seemed to lose connection every few days.
Went to Ikea today and thought, for 10 Euro’s I’ll never be screwed much.
Now I can control the 2 garage doors and the gate’s full or partial opening with just 1 remote.
Going to get some more of them 
Hello @lmullineux
First of all, I would say you have done a great job and true help to community by making the source code openly available. Many contributors Ive seen in this community hiding it in a black box!
Just one question before I attempt to implement your solution, I noticed that you have commented out lines 60 to 62 in the function “left_right_held_handler” in file src/tradfri-remote-control/init.lua. Do you mean to say that left and right “held” event doesnt works?
Hi @anuragk
Thats right, I had to take it out because it doesn’t actually work because when you do a held on these buttons, the remote also sends extra commands to make sure the device is on first.
See here for the explanation - Ikea Styrbar Remote - #84 by k.v.riel
FYI - I don’t actually maintain this driver anymore - I rolled support for this device into my other driver that supports other ikea remotes, and adds extra group binding capabilities. You can find that driver here Zigbee Button + Groups - Alpha Test
I see, thanks for the explanation and your new updated driver code. I will try one of these.
The driver works for me as well! However, I noticed that the Styrbar switch isn’t going to standby status and so seems like battery is draining fast. Is it something to do with the switch’s firmware or is it something you fixed in your updated code?
How can you tell if it’s going into standby? What do you mean by that?
Battery drain will be firmware related, not driver related
Excuse me for my little knowledge on the subject, Im still exploring and trying to figure out how these stuff works on driver level.
I mean battery based end switch devices kind of sleeps when no action is being done. Why it looked like to me its not going to sleep is because of the icon color and status on the ST app. I have another Ikea 2 button switch, if I press it then on ST app the switch icon changes to a colored icon and the status says button pressed. Then after a moment the icon changes back to grey and status says standby. However, in the case of Styrbar switch the icon always remains in colored state and status keeps showing the battery level.
Also, the battery level was showing 85% and then an hour later it reduced to 80% (which was quite fast, as if the switch was continously being pressed!) So, I thought battery is drainig fast since it isnt going to sleep. However, overnight the level remained at 80%, but now the level is back to 85%!! Im not sure whats going on with battery. I guess, the battery level reporting is faulty or inaccurate maybe.
It seems everything is fine now, except Im not sure why the switch icon remains in colored state denoting as if the switch is active.
Still not quite sure what you mean, but mine only changes color when pressed.
Well, mine always remains in colored state, whether the button is pressed or not. Its probably because I installed the code that you no longer support (GitHub - lrmulli/ST-Edge-Driver: SmartThings Edge Driver).
It’s my first day here. Thanks for sharing the drivers. I was able to add the drivers easily to my hub thanks to your link. I have verified that by checking the drivers on my hub and your drivers do show up there. But not sure how to add the device now. I tried searching for both IKEA and Strybar in the ‘Add a device’ section of the Smartthings App, but couldn’t find Strybar. Thanks for your help.

Scan for nearby devices ( after putting device in pairing mode)
Hi Vex,
I am new too. But not as bright as yourself. I have added the drivers, but I cannot connect Strybar to ST. I was earlier able to add 2 x Tradfri bulbs to ST in an instant, and I have also added a bunch of other devices. So, I know how to add devices, but when I try to add the Strybar switch, even after installing the drivers, I can’t see it in the list of available devices.
I would appreciate any help you can offer.
Hello, I’m currently setting up my routines for this button with this driver but I keep getting a popup saying informations haven’t been updated yet when I save a new routine or access the button settings. Yet, button presses do work and routine works as they should. Any idea?
Hi I’ve already got two Stybar remotes and bought a new one which is on different firmware. The button presses are not being picked up by the device handler. Any suggestions?
Sorry, I’m not sure why that is happening, or if firmware is the cause.
The best way to diagnose would be to use logcat and understand what is happening when you press buttons.
I don’t support this driver anymore, it’s superseded by the ZigBee button driver I released. I’m not sure if you will have the same problem with that driver.
