I have some Fibaro FGS222 switches here that are connected to lights. What I would like to do is to remap the hardware switches to something else than switching the light and control the light by OpenHAB only instead.

That would mean that, when i send the item from OpenHAB to the device, it should switch the light. But when OpenHAB receives the item, I can control other things.

I haven’t been able to find the right configuration parameter for the device to prevent the hardware buttons from switching the lights directly. Is this not supported by the Fibaro FGS222 or do I miss something here?

Best,

Nils

I might be wrong, but I don’t think this is possible. If you have a load connected to Q1, then I think this will always be controlled from S1 (and likewise for S2).

I expected it. Thanks anyway 🙂
