Ikea Tradfri Remote Zigbee2mqtt rule

Setup, Configuration and Use Beginners
1

Hi everyone, my issue is different from OH3 IKEA Tradfri remote control with zigbee2mqtt

I want to control multiple lights with this remote. However, when I press one button, all channel from z2m is triggered and all lights are toggled for any button press. How can I resolve this issue?

z2m logs for 1 button press:

No avail, all triggering every lights.

Please help to make this remote useful.

This looks reasonable. You get one update when you press the button (brightness_up_click) and then an update when you stop pressing the button (brightness_up_click). In each event, it updates the main topic with the JSON and the sub topics with each individual piece of data.

This also looks reasonable. There are six events, arraow_left_click pressed and then released, brightness_down_click pressed and then released, and finally arrow_right_click and released. In each event, there are nine messages sent to nine different topics, but they are all as described above.

Blockly is one of the few times where screen shots can help.

But what’s really missing here is how the MQTT channels are configured and how they are linked to what Items.

Notice how the same Channel mqtt:homeassistant:23dca9beae:zigbee2mqtt_5F0xb4e3f9fffe4ebd42 gets triggered for every button press. The payload of the triigger event tells you what button was pressed (e.g. brightness_up_release).

There is nothing here to filter the event. So this rule will get triggered every time any button is pressed. You have to tell it which button press you want to trigger the rule for.

image

Noitice the “Event” field that says “Any” by default. You need to put in the event that you want the rule to react to here. For example, “brightness_up_release”. Then the rule will only run for that putton event. If you need the rule to trigger for more than one event, add a separate trigger for each individual event, for example “button_up_click” for one trigger and “button_up_release” for the other.

Thank you! This fixes my issue.

However I don’t really like how OH behaves against this because I already specified which channel should be the trigger.
image
when they already have list of individual channels that should be monitored. Adding new item for each channel and get the rule triggered when the item is updated does not help too.

Unfortunately I don’t understand how this channels work, so I don’t have suggestion about it.

But you haven’t specified which button event. There is only one Channel for all the button press events.

With what you’ve shown so far all I can say is there appears to be only one Channel. I don’t know where those other entries in the list come from or if there are indeed more Channels. Maybe there’s a bug there and something that is supposed to work is not working. Based on events.log there is only the one Channel I can see.

I used one of these channels, brightness_up_click, arrow_right_click etc. But I have to specify the payload it received from z2m.

:person_shrugging: i don’t use these so all I have to go on is the logs and according to the logs, only one channel is receiving the events and the payload of the event is the button pressed.

Then, TIL that all those events on z2m logs are just one event, repeated for each recognized actions, with empty payloads. Only the first entry is significant.

Yes, that’s what I said above. For each event eight messages get posted to nine different topics. The first one is all the information encoded as JSON and the other eight are each piece of information posted to a separate topic.

But since you are using the HomeAssistant MQTT add-on, all that stuff is handled for you. You’d only need to mess with how the messages are published if you used the Generic MQTT add-on, which is sometimes required as the HA doesn’t always work quite right or support everything you need. In this case it might be that something isn’t quite working right.

Note in OH 5 the HA stuff underwent a massive overhaul. Those separate Channels might work as expected now in OH 5.
