How to Trigger Virtual Button on HmIP-DRSI4?

Hi everyone,

I’m currently using the HmIP-DRSI4 and I’m trying to trigger the virtual button directly within the device. However, I’m facing some issues with the channels:

  • Channel #1:BUTTON doesn’t seem to work.
  • Channel #1:SHORT_PRESS is read-only, so I can’t use that either.

What I’m trying to achieve is to make use of the integrated virtual button, instead of having to manually turn the state on and then off again after 1 second.

Has anyone encountered this issue or knows how I can get the virtual button working properly on the HmIP-DRSI4? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Not sure what you are trying to achive.
Do you want to debounce the buttons or do you want to trigger some CCU3 Rule from openhab?
I think this is more or less working as intended, but there should be other ways to achieve your goal.

I have WRC, DRI16 and DRI32 in use and I’m using them to control stuff directly, on the CCU3 and in openHAB with short and long press.

I also have several DRI32 and DRI16 in use and mainly use the CCU internal links to switch other Homematic devices with the DRI.

However, if the DRI is to switch a non-Homematic device, I have used the state of the respective DRI input in OH as a switch item and then created a rule for this. This is triggered when the switch item changes.

Yes, i would like to use ccu internal links, but if i use the state channel from the “virtual switch” inside the DRSI i get the following warning from openhab console.

2024-10-07 13:06:26.531 [WARN ] [ommunicator.AbstractHomematicGateway] - Datapoint is readOnly, it is not published to the gateway with id 'ccu': 'XXXXXXXX:1#STATE'

I would like to use this, because the switch is a button turned off automaticly after 1 Sec. Internal links are the prefered variant.
