New pimatic tradfri plugin / IKEA Smart Lights

Muldy_

Yes all works ok (android app)
Gateway is pinging…

Autodiscover is not working …
Can’t seed any debug messages from the tradfri plugin though…

Actually… I can’t get the plugin device entry in adding new hardware…

Tradfri plugin is shown as active though…

Spoted this:

18:18:18.515 [pimatic] info: Loading plugin: “pimatic-tradfri” (0.1.6)

@Muldy_

i have the same problem (“token…”) If the installation process is not clean.

Remove the plugin by deleting the pimatic-tradfri folder in node_modules, and restart pimatic

Inspect the install process if there is an error

Did what you said, and is working now thanks!

kosta

Perfecto! New features will come soon.

Hello. I need help.
I deleted the pimatic-tradfri directory from the node-modules.
I reinstalled the plugin (no errors).
I added device tradfri dimmer manually but does not connect to the lamp.

{
  "plugin": "tradfri",
  "secID": "hwaqPxxxxxxxxxxx",
  "hubIP": "192.168.1.208",
  "active": true
},


{
  "address": 65537,
  "xAttributeOptions": [],
  "id": "tradfri-1",
  "name": "Tradfri 1",
  "class": "TradfriDimmer"
}

When I switch after a while it appears "Oops…timeout"
No error message appears. Did I miss something?

Something for the off topic but is tradfri now compatible to Philips hue?

@kosta hey …frist nice that you do this 2nd at the moment is only dimming possible, right? I have at moment no stuff from ikea but i think about to getting it. But then i need to switch on/off the lights

kosta

@temp I’m not sure, because I don’t have Philips devices.
pairing tradfri devices with a hue gateway (newest firmware) is not possible. See here
The other way round I think it should be possible. I read it somewhere, but I don’t find the link to the site.

@tehmilcho
At the moment I use a normal dimmer device template, so in the GUI you see a slider.
Switching on/off is possible over the slider (completely right/left) or over an action rule.
I’m working on a new release with an own device template(a slider, a switch and a color picker)

kosta

@Andi-Tudor
The config looks good. Discovery is still not working?
Please be patient, the new release in some days will have a connection test and more debug output.

Auto-discover is working, I can confirm that

kosta

New version is published…

leader21

Rutger

Just bought a 1000 lumen bulb, remote and bridge. Works like a charm thanks @kosta !
Will let you know if I’m having problems.

Daniel Böber

I get it to discover my lights, groups and so on but I can´t add lights to my dashboard.

Thanks for the great work, this Plugin will be really helpful!

leader21

@Daniel-Böber did you clear the cache?

Daniel Böber

@leader21 that fixed it. I did a new tab in inkonito mode an it works. Will go on with testing, thanks!

leader21

nice to hear! sometimes it can be that easy

Daniel Böber

Compared to the “old” interface in my dashboard the new one looks much smarter, thanks
