Fibaro RGBW Controller 2 wall switch not working after remote switch off

Setup, Configuration and Use Beginners
1

Hi guys,

I’m struggling a little bit with my Fibaro RGBW Controller 2. I have connected one white LED stripe on each output as described in the manual. It is possible to control the LEDs by wall switch and by openhab itself. But I have some strange behaviour. If I turn off the LED by openhab it is not possible to turn it on by wall switch. As well, if I turn off the LED by wall switch the state is not reflected within openhab. Did I miss some configuration?

I’m using OH4 on a Pi4 with Zwave-Stick Gen5+.

My item to control the LED stripes:

Dimmer EG_LR_Light1_Dimmer "Licht Dimmer (LED)"
    (g_EG_LR, g_EG_LR_Light, EG_LightDimmer)
    ["Lightbulb","Dimmablelight"]
    {channel="zwave:device:e216f68b3e:node74:switch_dimmer"}

Here’s my thing config of Fibaro RGBW Controller 2:

Probably need Zwave debug log while doing what doesn’t work right. Could either analyze at smartHouse log viewer or post and I’ll see if I can see anything when I get a chance. (I do not have the device, so I would only be guessing without a log

Hi Bob,

sorry for the late answer. In attachement there are the zwave logs from turning on remote via sitemap and turning the LED off via wall switch.

turn_led_off_wallswt.txt (8.3 KB)
turn_led_on_remote.txt (13.0 KB)

For me it looks like that with the wall switch only the coloer_temperature and the color itself is updated but not the dimmer channel I am using for the LED stripe control. Any ideas how to connect it? Maybe with a profile?

Regards,
Matthias

I think you are basically right (note the last number in the channel; blank=0, etc.). The wall switch is changing Dimmer on EP 2 and Color on Ep 1. OH items seem linked to EP 0. I’d assume the wall switch is actually how the thing is wired, so unlink your items from the channels you are using and link them to the same as the wall switch is using.

Hi Bob,

with the latest update of OH => OH 4.1 it’s working fine. Even if only the channel for all out-control is used.
