Hello, 

 

I'm new to this forum but as i'm not sure on how to deal with my light installation update, i'd rather to ask for advices.

(I don't post at the right place and saw that after ! sorry, is someone able to move it to the right section, seems that i can't do that by myself; thanks per advance)

 

I have 4 doubles switches (2 button in a single standard slot, so 8 buttons)

i join a schema to summarize the starting point.

As u can see, the 2 buttons (on the left and on the right) are mixed ones; indeed, one switch is involved in two-ways switch and the second button is standard light on/off.

 

I'd like to change all this installation with walli switches or dimmers (if possible to add dimming capabilities, this would be great)

 

Thanks per advance for your help.

You can achieve dimming on all your lights using 5 Fibaro Dimmers and 8 momentary switches. Diagram 5 in the manual shows you how to use more than 1 switch to activate a light. Assuming you put the devices behind your switch plates, you would have 2 devices in the right most switch box which may not fit. So either enlarging the space or running additional wires to the last light may be required.

You can also use walli switches for your setup. But I am not sure how you can have multiple switches in that setup- others on here will know better.

    Ok so from your answer, no way to replace 1 double button per 1 walli switch (+ perhaps a dimming module behind) to do the trick but i will have to enlarge boxes and set 2 switches + pull new cables where having only one double switch today. 

    This is not what i expected but thanks for your answer.

     

    If someone have another vision, thanks per advance to provide it :)
