values from ikea remote control transferred to pimatic rule via conbee

---

Hello everyone, I have a question about rasbee and the transmitted signals.
I have a few of the remotes from ikea. Work basically very well.
But the problem: I use for about 6 years a 433 system for our shutters. Basically the system works, but every now and then a shutter does not go up or down. 433mhz has unfortunately not very high transmission reliability.
Therefore, I am considering for some time to switch to shutter switches on wifi basis. My personally biggest problem was the loss of the hand remote control (so something has the 433 system).
Now my idea, I wanted to use the (above mentioned) Ikea remote control. I know that this remote control sends different values for each button. Pimatic recognizes these values, they are displayed in the gui. I get the following values: 1002; 2002; 3002; 4002; 5002. One value for each button. The same is described on deConz.
But I can not evaluate these values in a rule. The rasbee plugin may not allow this.
Can someone help me with this? Maybe it is possible to customize the plugin?

The rule syntax is: received from <device button name> event “1002” (or one of the other codes)

@bertreb
You can see on the images I get an event displayed.

Yes, but you start with “received …,”. And not the device

@bertreb
It looks like I have a different problem. I do not get the correct device displayed. Therefore probably the wrong attributes. I have to get to the bottom of this first.

If you got the raspbee plugin, added a button device in Deconz, did a discovery in Pimatic and added the button device, the device for the ‘received…, rule should be there

I have already done that first.

Currently, I can’t get my device installed for testing (the remote) to work properly in pimatic. I the rules the device is apparently not aktzebtiert as one.
Somewhere I have made a mistake. I think I will delete everything for now and continue tomorrow.
Thanks for the quick reply and so on

@bertreb
somehow i have not yet found peace.
and actually i did it as always and as very often as you described. searched for devices, integrated them into pimatic, done.

I have the device simply times xxxx genant . and as you can see on the screenshot, it responds to a button of the FB.
then looked in the variables, the device is there three times

then try again with the rule

when i enter an x i get a very limited selection, unfortunately not the device i am looking for
but if i search for the device in the rule via the id of the variable…
i don’t know this behavior from pimatic, maybe it’s my fault. but at the moment i don’t see him, maybe you can help further.

What is the name/type of button device you did add to Deconz. Is it a ikea remote with the round control with the 4 arrows and a button in the middle?

You add via ‘add new switch’. You need to open the remote device and push the discovery button otherwise it will not be detected. When detected its a ’ TRÅDFRI remote control’

@bertreb said in values from ikea remote control transferred to pimatic rule via conbee:

Is it a ikea remote with the round control with the 4 arrows and a button in the middle?

yes, that is it. the name in deCONZ /phoscon is küche
is that the problem?

That shouldn’t be a problem. The discovery function of Pimatic isnt detecting the remote? or is it already in the config? You need to check on the id.

@bertreb
I have send a picture from the variable, that’s the I’d.
I have only 3.
I will tomorrow change the name in deCONZ and will then take a new test with the same names.

The remote should be discovered in Pimatic as a RaspBeeMultiSensor device.
Thats in my situatie the Raspbee device that is discovered for the Ikea remote

This is how the FB was detected via discover for me as well.

At first I had in deConz and pimatic also the same name.
But there was the problem as well. Then I changed the name, but only in pimatic.

After a trial and error search I found the solution. I have to use the variable to get an output. The quotation marks are also important.
Here is how it works:
when $raspbee_xyz1234567.switch = "1002" then turn Wandlampe on
