Currently refirbing the house and installing Fibaro for most lighting circuits. I want a Master off switch by the front door so that I can trigger all the lights off. I am using Scolmore Mini Grid switches and would like to keep the same look for the Master Off switch.
So my question - can I install a Fibaro (say single switch) with a power feed listening to the switch (2 position retractive) but with no output load? The more detail on this anyone can provide the better.
Yes, you could do that with a Fibaro switch as its just a relay. Maybe look at the single FGS-212 that runs well (and local) with the generic z-wave switch handler. Be aware though that it will need a neutral. Don’t try with the Dimmer 2 though.
Alternatively if you’re installing Fibaro modules anyway, you could use the S2 input on a dimmer 2 (already being used for another circuit), configure the module to send scene activation and then use Webcore to translate the scenes in to a master switch action.
I have had neutrals installed so no problem there and already need a fibaro switch at that location so will just make this a double switch and use web core from there.
I was just concerned it wouldn’t configure without a load attached.
