dimmer being added is Multilevel switch?


Question

Posted

Hi, 

 

I have been adding my fibaro dimmers to my new fibaro HC3.

 

When I add my Dimmer1s, they show up on the devices table with a Role of "dimmer 2" and in General it shows the Type as "com.fibaro.FGD212"

 

When I add my Dimmer2s they show up as either "Dimmer 2" like above (what I would expect) or some get added with a Role of "Multilevel switch", and in General it shows the Type as "com.fibaro.multilevelSwitch".

 

Why are the Dimmer2 being added as "Multilevel switch"?

Does it matter?

Am I adding them wrong?

 

The "Multilevel switch" has only 41 parameters the Dimmer2 has 59. What am I missing?

 

Thanks

Rut.

Hmm, as far I see your lower dimmer is in version 2.2 - which means that it is a dimmer 1.
It is ok as it is.

    But it is a Dimmer2

     

    I seems to have way less parameters having it like this

    When the dimmer is added as Dimmer2 I get another 'device' that I can use for the S2 input on the dimmer.

    When it is added as Multilevel Switch I don't get the other 'device.

    Does that matter?

    @Rutiga1 Could you confirm it on device label?
    There should be FGD-212 there, with version 3.x.
    This is really looks like FGD-211 - then version on the label will start from 2.x.

    We can also check it using API, use this URL in browser:

    API_HC3/api/devices/58/properties/productInfo

    and paste the response here.
