Jung multi switch to fibaro dimmer

Yannick · February 2017

I've bought a Jung multi switch (mutlipulsdrukker) but can't seem to connect it correctly to the fibaro dimmer 2.
The fibaro doesn't seem to have different connections for on and off and on the jung they are separate connections.

I thought pushbuttons were the way to go with domotica as they are stateless but I can't seem to wrap my head around getting this combo to work similarly to my Nodon wallswitch which does allow to turn on and off and dim up and down with 2 pushbuttons.

A puls drukker is : 1x click is on, 1 other click is off?
U can also push 1x left or 1x right.
U can also push 2x left or 3x right.
Lots of options.
Just read the manuals and ur good.

That doesn't help me connect the 2 together and fix the problem with the jung having 2 connections for on/off and the fibaro only 1.
I've read the manual of the fibaro (jung doesn't have one) and searched the internet for 2 hours.

As far as i know the pulsdrukker is only pushing once to switch something?
So, push 1 time and u tell him if that's on or off?
And push and hold is dimming up. after that push and hold is dimming down.

This multi switch pulse has 4 buttons. Not single as you describe.

Aha! Gonna look for some manuals, there must be a manual for it

Yannick · February 2017

the problem is not per se the manual i think. The problem is how to connect them together. As far as I can see now it doesn't seem possible (reading the manuals). But I'm very surprised the Fibaro module cannot match the functionality of a cheaper TKB Home or Nodon dimmer.

I think you've bought the wrong switch. You bought a switch for shutters. I also have jung multi pulse switches installed with fibaro.

Maybe a fibaro shutter switch is the solution for you.

Or buy this switch:

I doubt using the fibaro shutter would be able to dim lights.

Also the jungle from your link has the same problem as mine because it is the version for 1 light. Mine is the version for 2 loads.

Which one do you have? Single direction push button? That could work but would make dimming un-intuitive and confuse many of my guests.

I do use this switch http://www.berker.de/produktkatalog/funktionen/lichtsteuerung/schalter-taster/503404/531557.htm?Suchbegriffe=Wippentaster on which I place a single wipper and use only one half of the switch. The Fibaro dimmer is set to s1 and s2 in shutter mode

Ok so you too have a half working switch.

Yes singel direction push, I think it is working intuituve.
Hold to dim up or down. I think it is above 50% bright it dims down first if it is below 50% it dims up first.

I use the Jung 535EU (double switch) and the 531EU (single switch) with the fibaro dimmer 2, working great. Don't know if the one you bought is gonna work with the fibaro dimmer, can't understand the datasheet, but maybe someone else can:

This is the one i use:

Ja die had ik eerst ook besteld maar die werkt dus maar 1 kant op. Ik zoek juist een oplossing die hetzelfde werkt als de TKB Home en Nodon (naar boven en naar beneden kunnen klikken)

Just got off the phone with Robbshop which confirmed my suspicion that the Fibaro Dimmer cannot be connected to a multi switch and behave the same as the TKB Home unit. So I'm gonna send the stuff back and call the electrician to pull some blue wires..

In parameter 20 of the manual it seems like it should work (https://manuals.fibaro.com/content/manuals/en/FGD-212/FGD-212-EN-T-v1.3.pdf - page 25 . Also at hashop.nl they indicate it should work with the dimmer 2 and actually advise a pulse with 2x2 'maakcontacten' (https://www.hashop.nl/Jung-Dubbele-impulsdrukker-met-2-maakcontacten) . But i guess you already have different setup now, i'm still in doubt what to choose. Anyone else with a different experience than Yannick?
