Aeotec Key Fob

[Lenny212 2]

I have the Aeotec Key Fob.

I am wanting to set it up.

Aeotec manual says refer to the Home Center device you are using. I have Fibaro HC2.

Fibaro HC2 manual (which is pretty useless generally) does not mention including and managing remote-type devices.

Any ideas that can help?

First of all, you have to include your remote in the HC2 network, same way like all other devices. After that, can you play with functions:) You can follow this procedure (credits @

 from smartliving.com.au):

 

1. In HC2, go to 'Configuration'->'Z-Wave network' 
2. Check Box 'Auto configuration of battery operated devices:' 
3. Save 
4. Run Add Device procedure in the 'standard' way 
5. Go to the KeyFob Device, and select the Advanced Page.
6. At the bottom, in the ‘Configuration’ section enter 250 in the number and 1 in the desired value, then press the “Reconfigure device” button above.
7. Confirm that the device now reports the “Current value” as 1 which means the remote is in “Scene Mode”

Create your own scene to control the device, BUT is must be done in code. Here is an example showing the remote as device 13 and the switch as device 4, along with debug messages you can delete when you get it going

--[[
%% properties

13 sceneActivation

%% globals
--]]

local buttonPressed = fibaro:getValue(13, "sceneActivation")


if ( tonumber(buttonPressed) == 1) then
fibaro:debug("MiniMote button 1 pressed")
elseif ( tonumber(buttonPressed) == 2) then
fibaro:debug("MiniMote button 2 pressed")
elseif ( tonumber(buttonPressed) == 3) then
fibaro:call(4, "turnOn")
fibaro:debug("MiniMote button 3 pressed - Light ON")
elseif ( tonumber(buttonPressed) == 4) then
fibaro:call(4, "turnOff")
fibaro:debug("MiniMote button 4 pressed - Light OFF")
elseif ( tonumber(buttonPressed) == 5) then
fibaro:debug("MiniMote button 5 pressed")
elseif ( tonumber(buttonPressed) == 6) then
fibaro:debug("MiniMote button 6 pressed")
elseif ( tonumber(buttonPressed) == 7) then
fibaro:debug("MiniMote button 7 pressed")
elseif ( tonumber(buttonPressed) == 8) then
fibaro:debug("MiniMote button 8 pressed")
else
fibaro:debug("No response")
end

Note that Button 1 is a short push on the top left button, Button 2 is a long push on the top left button
Button 3 is a short push on the top right button, Button 4 is a long push on the top right button and so on.

Thank you @jires, I will bookmark this and try on the weekend.

Is there any documentation available on how to program in LUA? I can follow the code above but obviously in time I would like to be able to create it from scratch and extend capability.

Thx @jires for the links.

 

I have included the remote in the Z-Wave network with the HC2. Configuration = "Not configured". See first image attached.

I click the Reconfiguration button as HC2 tells me to. Now it says "Reconfiguration waiting for device to wake up". I have pressed every button on the remote while near the HC2. I get green lights and red lights on the remote. HC2 is still waiting for the device to wake up after 18 minutes. See second image attached.

Any ideas?

When you have battery powered device, you have to wake it up to configure. Pressing buttons (or f.x. detecting of motion for motion detector) is not making devices awake.

This is a clip from manual..

 

 

I assume that you have read the manual of this remote right?

Thanks @jires , I will try this.

 

My manual is different to this. Different font and different chapter points. I must have an earlier version that has been sitting in a warehouse, hence the flat battery also.

This chapter, or anything to do with "wake-up notification", is missing from my manual.
