[Solved] 12 V LED Dimmer/Switch 433mhz compatible with pimatic

---

Hi,

i’m looking for an 12 V LED dimmer compatible with pimatic
and 433 mhz. I would like to switch on/off and dimm a set
of led`s in a cupboard. Is there any dimmer which
i can directly plug in the socket and connect the led’s?

Something like this: http://www.klikaanklikuit.nl/shop/nl/acm-lv24/
but it’s only in the NL shop - not in the international/german shop.

kind regards pilot

Are you sure that this is a 433Mhz dimmer ?

Btw. If you search in google you will find hundreds of links… e.g.

@PiLoT Just in case no one has a recommendation, you may want to have a look at an alternative. I am using pimatic-led-light with Milight. The cost for the Milight Wifi-Hub and the LED-Controller (Single Color) is about 30 Euros. The Wifi-Hub can control 4 channels, so you can add more LED-Controllers or LED-Bulbs to the setup. There is also a pocket remote available.

You may also come across the Wifi370/LW12 Wifi LED controllers which are generally also supported by pimatic-led-light. There is no pocket remote for this one, but you could use a 433Mhz remote and use pimatic rules to controll your LEDs.

@mwittig My Wifi370 is having problems with the plugin, is the milight fully working?

@incmve said:

Good point! I should have mentioned that. To date, it is only fully working with my fork. Hopefully, @philip1986 will integrate the pending PR. My fork can be installed as descibed here: http://forum.pimatic.org/topic/881/solved-error-message-with-installing-pimatic-led-light/6

Thank you for the link - but i want to know if someone
uses one of these dimmers successfully to know if it is compatible with pimatic/homeduino.

Hi,

i will try my luck with the ACM-LV24 Mini 12-24 V LED dimmer. (ordered…)
If this wont work - i’ll have a look at the Wifi370/LW12 Wifi LED.

I do Also have a acm and it works great.

Hi,

my CoCo ACM-LV24 just arrived.
My question, can someone help me to integrate it?

I don’t have an CoCo remote.
Only the Raspi with Homeduino Plugin an RF Sender/Receiver.

I found this:
http://forum.pimatic.org/topic/583/dimmer-for-a-pimatic-noob/9

But it only explains, how to integrate the slider.

I need to know how to find the ID / Unit for it.
And how to have an On/Of Switch with Slider for dimming…

You dont need to find the id and unit, you can make one yourself. Try this one:

{
      "id": "dimmer",
      "name": "Dimmer",
      "class": "HomeduinoRFDimmer",
      "protocols": [
        {
          "name": "dimmer1",
          "options": {
            "id": 12345,
            "unit": 0
          }
        }
      ]
    },

Hello sweebee,

ok, this was easy
So i can define an ID for every Switch/Dimmer.
Is there a limit for the unit?!
Or can i have ID: 123456 - and unit 1 till unit 100 ?

And last question about the ACM-LV24 - can i have an on/off Switch, too and the dimming slider?
And… is there a way to calibrate the dimming?!

You have to add a separate switch to set it on/off only in pimatic (just like a normal coco switch).

Don’t know what the range of the id’s and unit’s is.

What do you mean by calibrating? The coco dimmers have 15 dim levels.

Hi,

okey thx for the information.
Works perfect
