Hi!
I have serveral IKEA Trådfri things connected without any problems but I have tried to connect two 10w led drivers but can’t get it to connect.
I have a Trådfri dimmer as well and I can easily connect that to the drivers and to the hub as well.
I have had the driver on top of the hub all the time, tried resetting it, try to power toggle etc but can’t get ST to find it.
Any ideas? Could I need a FW update on the driver or something? One is from April and the other one I bought last week.
LED POWER ADAPTERS FROM IKEA WORK with smartthings 2018
I installed two Tradfri Drivers on my SmartThings 2018 hub. How?
Forget the 20/10/10 second pairing mode, the only thing what you need to change is your smartthings hub ZIGBEE CHANNEL, Ikea dont like the chanell 24 what is default channel for smartthings hub.
How to change it?
from https://graph-na04-useast2.api.smartthings.com log in with your account.
Change Zigbee channel for older Zigbee devices.
Click on "My Hubs"
Click on your newly setup Smart Home Hub, the default name of it would be "Hub" if you didn't change the name after setup.
At the bottom, click on "View Utilities"
Select one of these channels: 14 (works for me)
reboot your hub
And after that normaly search start the THING search from smartthings.
Plug in light with the driver and turn it on.
Then press reset button about 6sec, the light will blink and after that stays on.
Now you can see your device in smartthigns app.
Works with ikea 10w and 30w drivers
DONE.
I gave up trying to get it to pair with ST. Instead it paired immediately to Hue and works flawlessly!
