Can I use a smart dimmer to drive a dimmable smart plug? (and how?)

[sfarnsworth1]

Can I use a
Zooz Z-Wave Plus S2 Wall Dimmer Switch ZEN27
to drive a
Leviton DZPD3-2BW Decora Smart Plug-in Dimmer with Z-Wave Technology
?

For example, I have the smart plug driving a string of 36 dimmable cafe lights on my back patio. I can control them with Hubitat from phone, but I’d love to have a Zooz ZEN27 (for example) in the wall, with no load, and when I turn on, or dim, or turn off, the ZEN27 the smart plug follows whatever I tell the ZEN27 to do.

Possible? How? (Documented somewhere?) Should I be using something different for my smart plug and/or wall switch?

Big thanks in advance.

OR MAYBE PUT ANOTHER WAY Where's the documentation for the Mirror App?

I’m using Switch Bindings to sync a wall dimmer with a lamp dimmer and it works great.

[RELEASE] Switch Bindings 2.0

Switch Bindings 2.0 Release! Today I release Version 2.0! This is a major overhaul with some great new features. (Thank you for the suggestions!) Toggles to let you choose which attributes/events to sync Syncing of Held/Released events on dimmers and switches. For example, it can start ramping the other dimmers up/down as soon as you hold the paddle on another dimmer. You don't have to wait for the Level attribute to update at the end. Now can sync Hue, Saturation, and Color Temperature Includ…

I’m not sure if that particular dimmer will still work without a load though. If it doesn’t you probably can tie in one of those bypass/dummy load modules.

@bertabcd1234 has created a really great app that can control a dimmer from a button controller:

[RELEASE] Dimmer Button Controller (configure Pico to emulate Hue Dimmer or any button device to easily control lights)

Inspired by this thread and this post in particular, I have created an app that (I think) easily allows button devices to be configured to control bulbs, switches, and dimmers. This app allows you to: choose a button device (I wrote this with 5-button Picos with the "fast Pico" driver in mind and expanded it to work with the "held" events from the Osram/Lightify dimmer and later the "double tapped" events from other devices, but any button device should work) choose one or more bulbs/dimmers o…

I would say it’s worth a try. It is super easy to setup and very powerful.

I use the Generic Zwave Plus dimmer with the New One Z-Wave Plug,Smart Dimmer Plug Socket 700 Series. It works flawlessly, also via Alexa.
