Fibaro dimmer 2 (FGD-212) driver

[Tunnus]

I've tried a couple of drivers (built-in & Hubitat/fibaro-dimmer-2.groovy at master · erocm123/Hubitat · GitHub, Hubitat/Fibaro Dimmer 2 (FGD-212) at master · RobinWinbourne/Hubitat · GitHub), but none of them is working well.

Robin's version was the best of these three, but still having huge issues. Light turns on, but is immediately switched off. And after a couple of retries now it doesn't even turn on. Anyone having similar experience?

Using the latest platform version with C-7.

Hi,

Try to set parameter 20 to 1 (toggle switch) then it should probably work. Had similar behavior for Qubino.

Cheers Rene

Have that already, but it doesn't help

currentProperties : {22=[0], 44=[2, 88], 23=[1], 26=[0], 28=[1], 50=[10], 52=[14, 16], 30=[2], 53=[0, 10], 31=[1], 10=[0, 0], 54=[0], 32=[2], 33=[0], 35=[0], 14=[0], 58=[0], 39=[0, 250], 19=[0], 1=[1], 2=[99], 5=[1], 6=[0, 1], 7=[1], 8=[0, 5], 9=[1], 40=[3], 41=[2], 20=[1], 42=[3], 43=[1]}```

and 21 to 0? I do not see that listed. Else I don't know other than a factory reset and try again.

[Tunnus]

It's zero. Thanks for these hints, I'll probably do a factory reset. Btw, running this device in a secure mode, but it shouldn't matter (?)

I had a lot of issues when I set mine up. In the end I switched them to 'Basic Z Wave Tool' once calibrated at the device, set the parameters manually and then just switched back to the Hubitat built in driver. I've not had any issues since, though obviously I need to remember not to 'configure' or 'save preferences' in the device window to avoid overwriting the parameters set with the Basic Z Wave Tool.

[Tunnus]

I changed to Basic Z-wave tool and ran "Get parameter report". At first I thought it doesn't work, but it's just very sloooow:

EDIT: it's not slow, but just gives a couple of parameters (although the whole list was requested)

[Tunnus]

Using Basic Z-wave tool and setting parameter 13 to do forced auto-calibration finally did the trick. Now I'm back with Robin's version of the driver.

[johnwill1]

It's funny I've never had an issue with the standard driver after setting the parameters manually. Then 5 minutes ago my Living Room lights went out for no reason with the logs showing 'Switched off physical'. There's a ghost in the house....
