  • OK, thanks to third party developers, this lock now has basic (open-close) support from this app: https://apps.athom.com/app/com.yale.lock Their app will also report who opened and closed the lock by reference to the number (slot) that the admin h…

  • I don't recognise the screenshot, but what I mean is this... As I understand it, your valve is designed to have a thermostat operate it as if it is a toggle switch, wherein the live signal is flipped between the cables labelled 3 & 4 in the dia…
  • I can't see properly your last 2 posts. Did you switch one on and one off at the same? Or just Q1 on and then  Q2?
  • Are you using a flow or just flipping switches in the homey GUI/app? I'm guessing you need to switch Q2 on at the same time as switching Q1 off to properly achieve a 'close' command, and vice versa for an 'open'.
  • So according to the diagram... q1 to 'Blue (3)', Q2 to 'Brown (4)', neutral to 'Color N(2)', and N on the fibaro, and live to L on the fibaro?

  • Hello I'm trying to turn off underfloor electric heating if the window in the bathroom is open (using a sensative strip).Could somebody who knows how the app works tell me if that can be made to work that the schedule is resumed when the window is…
  • I still don't know what the error meant, but I managed to get rid of it by changing the order of the cards.  Now in the then column it goes: Turn on: Garden Tap Open Turn off: Garden Tap Closed Set a textual variable 'Garden Tap': 'Open' else Turn…

  • Could somebody (with patience) help me with a flow to dim 2 LED strips from one RGBW module please.  The modules are wired like fig 7 in the manual - 2 sets of lights (in my case white LED strips):  caseda  seems to indicate that it can be done ca…

  • Thanks @JPe, I got one and got it working. Now I'm wondering how best to configure it in flows.  The relay is controlling a garden tap, with a ball valve controlling the flow of water.  I'm effectively toggling both channels (Q1 and Q2 on the rel…

  • @JPe Thanks that looks good.  Are you familiar with this device?  I'm just wondering if the PCB is normally powered by 2x AAA batteries, but the relay is rated at up to 6.5A per output channel and 240v AC, will it work?
  • Rocodamelshe said: My guess is it’s the same. My dimmer2 says "Is aan"  in Chrome, "Is turned on" in mobile app. So same card, different translations.  Yes, semantics, I know but "...is turned on" and "...is on..." are not the same in Eng…
  • JPe said: You could add an extra "If ON" card, so it only is switched OFF when it is ON Out of curiosity: In your Dutch version your card seems to translate to 'Is on' which implies a state, whereas in English it says 'Is turned on' whic…
  • @JPe - Thanks. I think that's the solution I'll go with for now although it still leaves the question of efficiency (see edited first post)
  • @cbh Thanks for the explanation.  I guess in my case (I just want to switch it off if it's below a certain threshold, and the room is unoccupied so I homey doesn't need to know about the direction.  I believe the the magnitude of change that trigger…
