Shelly DIMMER 2 sets of 2 pieces Wi-Fi device for controlling halogen lights, LEDs, ferromagnetic dimmable transformers, 110-230V, green

Product Information

If Channel Name is set in the device, the integration will use it to generate the entities’ name, e.g. Kitchen Light I got similar from them, they are just covering themselves against people who buy the retractive switches, wire them to conventional dimmers or direct to lights and wonder why the lights flash when you press the button and don't stay on! :-O command_on_template: '{"turn": "on"{% if brightness is defined %}, "brightness": {{(brightness | float * 0.3882 + 1) | round(0)}}{% endif %}}'

Shelly Plus Wall Dimmer (The Device) can switch on/off and vary the brightness of compatible dimmable lights. It can be easily wired in the place of a standard US light switch. Enhanced with all the gen2 firmware flexibility, it provides professional integrators with additional options for end customer solutions. It can work standalone in a local Wi-Fi network, or it can also be operated through cloud home automation services. SNTP synchronizes your device's system time with a server that has already been synchronized by another source. There is already a set server, which is the default one - http://time.google.com, however if there are any problems, you can easily change it and enter a new one in the text box. Changing this setting will reboot the device. ADVANCED DEVELOPER SETTINGS Generation 1 “Shelly 4Pro” and “Shelly Sense” are not supported (devices based on old CoAP v1 protocol) Before you can control the device again, you’ll have to add it to your account again as a new device. DEVICE REBOOT

Depending on how a device’s button type is configured, the integration will create binary sensors corresponding to those inputs. binary sensors are not created when the button type is momentary or momentary_on_release, for these types you need to use events for your automations. Binary input sensors (generation 2) Turn on indicator for the current status of the physical switch connected to Shelly Device. When enabled, a small line appears on the power button, below the power symbol ⏻. A red line indicates the physical switch is off, while a blue line indicates the physical switch is on. Exclude From Activity Log If the Input Mode of the switch connected to the device is set to Button, the integration creates an event entity for this switch. You can use this entity in your automations. Events

The first will allow specifying a temperature, the second instead of a percentage of the valve position. Home Assistant will display a repair issue for the Shelly device if push updates from this device do not reach the Home Assistant server.

Smart Home Dimming with The Shelly Dimmer 2

As with other Shelly devices, this Dimmer 2 can be controlled remotely via a few different APIs, including REST and MQTT. The device can also be controlled via its internal web server or via the Shelly app (locally or in the cloud). Also like other Shelly devices, enabling MQTT disables cloud control. Some of the key features include the ability to set a minimum brightness level, fade rate, scheduling, timers, and triggers to call other smart home devices (Actions). outdoor lights controlled from two locations (i was hoping to have simple on/off 2 way retractive switches) do I need anything special from the switches in terms of set up?

The Device has an embedded Web Interface which can be used to monitor and control the device, as well as adjust its settings. Features Auto off: After turning on, the relay output will be automatically turned off after a predefined period of time (in seconds). from what I hear having a neutral to the ceiling rose would be preferable, how hard would this be for my electrician to run now that everything’s has been plastered? I prefer to not have a cloud connection, and I want to be able to automate my fireplace based on other factors in my home. The Shelly app and interface allow for some automation, but I prefer to use Home Assistant, my favorite automation controller. You’ll want to set the default state of the dimmer when power is restored to it (e.g. after a power outage). I set mine to default to the last known state:If Device Name or Channel Name is set in the device, the integration will use them to generate the entities’ name.

Connecting your Shelly to its cloud allows you to control it remotely, receive notifications and updates about your devices. The default for this setting is for the cloud to be enabled. If you disable the device cloud support, you will lose connection to your device from outside its local network! ActionsIf only the device name is set, and the device has multiple channels, the channel number will be appended to the entity name (e.g., Channel 2). For battery-powered devices, the update platform entities only inform about the availability of firmware updates but are not able to trigger the update process. Another Shelly product that I love, what a surprise! At this point, I can easily say that Shelly is my favorite smart home device manufacturer. For generation 2 hardware it’s possible to select if a device’s input is connected to a button or a switch. Binary sensors are created only if the input mode is set to switch. When the input is of type button you need to use events for your automations. Event entities (generation 1)
