IF you were using the VZM35 Fan switch then you would see a Set Speed command. Since you're using the VZM31 Dimmer switch then you will see Set Level command. You can "set level" to the fan and it will change speed
Thanks Mark. But I'm not using the paddle to control the fan. The paddle controls the light. The fan speed is controlled through the config/scene button.
The preceding 4 bytes are the hardware version, decoded the same as firmware version. For example:
is Hardware version 1.2 and Firmware version 2.18

I understand that. What I was saying is that with the Dimmer driver, the terminology is Set Level, not Set Speed but they both do essentially the same thing. Perhaps I misunderstood what you are trying to do? 
@bertabcd1234 Any chance you will be attempting to tackle the Blue Series Presence Sensing Dimmer driver? How about a go at the White Series stuff? I only ask the latter because you responded in my thread where I was bemoaning the lack of features in the only available driver for the White series switches. 
I have a White Series device and plan to look at it some day, but I haven't used it at all yet, much less on Hubitat. I suspect some issues may be related to general Matter features on Hubitat that aren't supported yet, like what it would need for button events, but since I haven't looked at all yet, I'm not sure if that would apply to this device specifically...
For the presence sensor, I'm not sure. Are they even out yet? I wasn't invited to beta teat that one (or I think I really was but something got messed up and they never really did...I'm still in some of the discussions 
), so that would need to happen first. I'm likely not going to be quite as interested in those for my own use, however, which generally also drives my interest in custom drivers.

Thanks for the reply! I think you’re right, I jumped the gun on the Presence Sensing dimmer. It’s preorder only right now. I was hoping you were gonna have a go at the White series dimmer, but you’re the second person to say that the support for Matter just isn’t quite there in Hubitat, which is strange considering how long they’ve been touting Matter support. I guess I should know better than believing marketing hype in tech products, but I was just hopeful I guess. So, I guess my two choices are to bail on the White Series and use the Blue Series, or bail on Hubitat and start looking at Home Assistant, which I think you said you prefer. Are all advanced features of the White Series supported in Home Assistant?
If anything at all, I think I've said the opposite. 
Zigbee is a mature protocol, and most features are supported on most platforms (looking at Wink if it works at all?). That or Z-Wave would really be my preference, and kra why I haven't looked at the White Series yet.
Most features are there and in control of the driver even if there's something lacking in the provided methods. Locks and actual buttons are two they are still trying to figure out (it's not unknown that there are problems, but they are not sure why). This one might still be worth looking at though--if it's like the Zigbee device, they were using custom clusters and attributes even though some standard ones seemed like they'd be more applicable. If they did something similar with Matter, there may be hope as-is...
