I think you have to use the smart app associated with the device driver.
There are a few other version out there. I created one that shows up a switch, and then you can use any app that works with a switch to control you lights ( I use dim with me). This will work with Amazon Echo, who apparently doesn’t do buttons.
This device type is a lot of cut and paste work, so forgive me if it’s a hack job.
The entire parsing section is taken from @Motley ’s Device Type. (Many thanks to @Motley for all the work in figuring out how to parse the info!!! See [OBSOLETE] OSRAM Lightify Smart Dimmer Switch (button controller device handler and smart app) )
I was looking to use the switch with switch and switch level capabilities, so I basically merged with the Virtual Dimmer Device Type. Using this device type, you can use apps such as Dim with Me or Smart Lighting to pair with light(s) and the device is a functional switch in the SmartThings App.
The top button turns the device on, the bottom turns it off. A press and hold of the top button will raise the level by 20, the bottom will lower by 20. (I have been tryin…
Also @adamoutler , created a device driver that binds directly to up to five devices and does press and hold to dim.
The intent of this Device Type is to replicate the functionality of the Osram Lightify System, under the SmartThings system, locally; without a slow, difficult to configure, remote SmartApp. While this device type works with the typical Lightify Zigbee commands and fires them directly at the lights you choose, It should also support most other non-lightify Zigbee devices, but dimming will only work with lamps.
Status:
The buttons are fully functional. All features and statuses can be accessed within the app, and the web user interface.
See the “coming soon” section for planned features.

Replicated Lightify Device Features:
Tap up for on
Tap down for off
Fades from on to off and back smoothly
Always goes back to last brightness - on and off do not change brightness
Smoot…
Hope this helps!
