Hi all, I’ve bought a couple of Hue Lux bulbs - not to be confused with Hue as Hue Lux are just white, but still dimmable. After support kindly updated my Zigbee firmware I was able to pair a bulb with SmartThings, however it showed up as Unknown. The reason for this (I assume) is that I did not h…

You did add the Device Type for a bulb paired with the Hue Hub. There is a device type for Zigbee Hue Bulb that you could adapt for the Hue Lux by removing the color changing portions. To start, you could just remove the 0300 from the inClusters list and the on/off and dim commands should all work o…

Many thanks @Sticks18 , I’ll try adapting one of the other Zigbee light devices as you suggest. @tslagle13 - is that the one I already tried which looks like it it’s a hue hub one rather than a direct Zigbee one? Please let me know if you’ve found a Zigbee one for Hue Lux!

Okay, got it working more or less. I got an error about ambiguous use of BigInteger and read elsewhere that I would have to delete the Device and re-pair it - that was great because it actually matched it to the Device Type correctly. I have noticed a couple of things. If powered off then back on, …

For refresh() try this: "st rattr 0x${device.deviceNetworkId} 1 6 0", "delay 500", "st rattr 0x${device.deviceNetworkId} 1 8 0" And also add this to your parse() if (description?.startsWith("read attr")) { def i = Math.round(convertHexToInt(description[-2..-1]) / 256 * 100 ) …

Many thanks @Sticks18 , it works perfectly (well perhaps a little slower than I would like!) I wonder if you could help me to understand the Parse method a little better. Mine currently looks like this: // Parse incoming device messages to generate events def parse(String description) { log.trace …

Parse only reads incoming messages from the device, and creates events based on those messages. catchall is just a format of some zigbee messages. Basic default responses and messages coming from on/off cluster are catchall format, so if you turned on the logging, you’d see “catchall: C05E 0006 ……

Thanks again @Sticks18 . A couple more questions if you can bare it! In the code you provided you raised two events: sendEvent( name: "level", value: i ) sendEvent( name: "switch.setLevel", value: i) //added to help subscribers Why is the second event necessary? Any subscribers to a level change…

[quote=“JasonBSteele, post:9, topic:9623”] Why is the second event necessary? Any subscribers to a level change will be notified so why do we need one for switch.setLevel.[/quote] We added the second one because some SmartApps subscribe to the setLevel event, so this covers both possibilities. In …

[image] Sticks18: Sorry if I gave too much info. Not at all! Thank you so much for taking the time to share what you have learnt. The link to the GE Bulb and the Zigbee doc are very useful. I should now be armed with enough information to pore over the Live Logging and work out what’s going o…
