Hi,
I found a driver for Philio PAN04 Dual relay switch:

erocm123/Hubitat/blob/master/Drivers/philio-pan04-dual-relay.src/philio-pan04-dual-relay.groovy

/**
 *  
 *	Philio Pan04 Dual Relay Device Type

 *	Date: 2015-10-29
 * 
 *  NOTE: As of the 2016-02-23 update, this handler is no longer recommended for the Enerwave and Monoprice relays.
 *        It has been optimized for performance and functionality with the Philio.
 *        You can still get excellent results with my Generic Dual Relay if you are using the Enerwave or Monoprice:
 *        https://github.com/erocm123/SmartThingsPublic/blob/master/devicetypes/erocm123/generic-dual-relay.src/generic-dual-relay.groovy
 *
 *  2016-02-23: Complete redesign and support for energy and power on both circuits.
 *  2016-01-13: Fixed an error in the MultiChannelCmdEncap method that was stopping the instant status
 *              update from working correctly. Also removed some unnecessary code.
 *  2015-11-17: Added the ability to change config parameters through the device preferences	
 * 
 * 	 
 *	Device Type supports all the feautres of the Pan04 device including both switches,

Would love to find or get help converting it to Parent with 2 child objects (switches) so i can have 2 tiles in dashboard and 2 devices on google home...
Any help would be appreciated,
Lior

There are some generic examples on the Hubitat Public site. Explicitly:

Parent: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hubitat/HubitatPublic/master/examples/drivers/genericComponentParentDemo.groovy
Child (dimmer example): https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hubitat/HubitatPublic/master/examples/drivers/genericComponentDimmer.groovy

Good luck.

Have you tried using some of the built-in driver types to see if any of them will work with this device? There is a Generic Z-Wave Plus MultiSwitch driver that might fit the bill, if you haven’t already tried it. Make sure you click Configure after changing and saving the driver type. It’s worth a shot

Tried Many of the Build in drivers, most of the times i didn't get any child devices nor some of them even light of the switch...
at the end this driver helped:

if anyone needs a driver for Philio PAN04 Dual switch, this one works and makes two child objects...
Thanks everyone
