  • Well, I can tell you: One of my fire alarms went off and homey didn't respond at all. If I toggle the settings on the Alecto homey states with an icon "Smoke detecor: no". Ive changed the flow to "any alarm"  then turn on firealarm flow which isnt …
  • Herkenbaar. I'm having identical issues. Maybe it's better with Philips hue? Excuse the English, my tab is set to English and autocorrect is adjusting all Dutch words.

  • Anyone got tips?

  • I've already returned the device. What Eternity states is a good idea, maybe next time. Wiring was also the way it should be, switching on/off through the switch worked fine. Wiring was exactly like the picture I uploaded in my previous post.
  • after an hour of turning lights off and on, pressing the button I've decided to unplug everything and return the switch device.  I put homey IN the socket right next ot the adapter and nothing.
  • i have everything wired up properly, Homey wont connect, doesnt see a z-wave item... Homey is like 1 meter away, I even have the adapter outside the wall to pair, used the switch 3 times AND pressed the connect button - nothing. EDIT: holding the b…
  • pic for guidance: 
  • I was trying to draw it out for myself, but going blank again. Following? 1. unplug socket 2. use a connector to make 1 old + 2 new brown connector 3. use a connector to make 1 old + 2 new blue connector 4.  make 2 old + 2 new black connector 5. co…
  • Rocodamelshe said: So the 2 black wires coming out of the box goes to Q1 and Q2. 2 other (new) black wires coming from ur switch goes to S1 and S2 Many thanks, I figured it was going to go that way after thinking for a bit. I'm going at…
  • I indeed want to keep the socket. I got this far before becoming confused with the wiring:

  • When are there plans to allow tablets to download the preview? (I bought a new tablet - samsung galaxy s2) specifically to be wall mounted to control homey and our house. preview isnt compatible.
  • nevermind the tablet is apparently broken. screen stays black but buttons work. Great..
  • Well, I am a baboon, in my hurry to buy a wall mount tablet + the switch I apparently ordered a single switch instead of a double.. Have to return it now -.- Atleast I can start working on my wall mounted tablet
  • I've purchased a fibaro double switch, which should come in today. Will have a look on how it goes
  • Well, I just decided to reset all lights and pair them again. Which is a horrible proces of unplugging all GU10 spots, go to the nearest GU spot to my homey and -> reset - pair - unplug - next - reset - pair - unplug next. I havnt installed them…
  • Ive installed 6 bulbs, one is already dead it seems so I'll have to return that. Now - I had to turn off the power so I could replace the light switch, after turning the power back on - Homey states some lights are online but isnt able to change the…
  • I've changed some flows around. Apparently device specific alarm does not work, but when I change to a certain type of alarm it does work. I'll probably make multiple alarms based on the zones so I know where the fire started, also for my shed(s).
  • Ok because I read that you use a NEO PIR after sunset? Or do you mean in conjunction with the sunset feature? After sunset - certain time - u switch off the lights and het the motion sensor handle it?

  • I can speak and read dutch yes. I'll have to check up on the wiring, because my old man did that a long time ago and I know for sure he did not use proper color coding.. chances are likely that i don't have a third wire.
  • Thanks, I see what you mean. I've checked a youtube video: I'll have to check how much space is available behind the electric box.
  • If I look at pictures for Fibaro "switches" I end up seeing a black box that you put in the wall, am I correct to assume that you mount a switch to that? Or am I wrong?
  • Oy1974 said: The answer is yes. Each app gives you a Phone on homey... one for the old app and one for the new app I do hope when the preview becomes stable, it won't do that.
  • Does the new BETA identifiy phones differently compared to the old? My workflows with push notifications appear no longer to be functioning. After checking why (removing the push notification and adding it again) it now shows two phones; Oneplus 5 …
  • Thank you, that's exactly what I meant!
