Hi,
I have a Zooz Zen72 controller that is currently controlling a ceiling light in a room. The same room also has a lamp connected to a ZooZ Zen04 outlet
I would like to setup a scene that allows me to tap 3 times on the upper paddle of the Zen72 to turn on the lamp connected to the Zen04. Likewise, I would like to tap 3 times on the lower paddle of the Zen72 to turn off the lamp connected to the Zen04.
How do I go about this in Hubitat?
Sincerely,
I would suggest the Button Controller app or even Basic Button Controller (if you're not as comfortable with the Rule-Machine-esque UI of the former). Either make it easy to respond to some button event and perform some actions/automation in response, which is what you want to do here. The "scenes" from the ZEN72 are translated into button events by the Hubitat driver, then you want to turn on the ZEN04 in response, it seems.
However, one hurdle is that Hubitat's built-in driver for the ZEN72 maxes out at double taps (per the Hubitat button capability model that also does). So, you'll need a custom driver to get three (or more) taps. There may be others, but here is one I'm aware of: [DRIVER] Zooz ZEN Switches Advanced (and Dimmers). You'll want to switch to a driver like this if you aren't already using one.
Then, you'll need to figure out what buttons correspond to what real-world actions. In this driver, it looks like 3 taps up should be "button 5 pushed" and three taps down should be "button 6 pushed," but you can watch events or Logs in real time as you manipulate the real device to see for sure.
Good luck!
To add to what bert said, you also need to enable the scene control preference for the switch (I'm using the community drivers from jtp10181 that were mentioned).
I use that switch to toggle my pantry light, I did exactly what you were trying to do 3x up and 3x down but it was slightly tedious so I switched to use 2x down to just toggle it using a basic rule.
I'd be interested to hear how often people actually use 4x and 5x presses...
I used the basic button controller to create the scene and that worked perfectly. I am curious to know how you identified the number of taps to the button number. Is there a document or driver that you could point me to?
Sincerely,
I just looked at the code since the driver is open source. 
I've written a few similar drivers myself, so I knew what to look for; this might be difficult otherwise. Aside from Inovelli's custom drivers, this is also pretty common numbering for this type of multitap device.
The developer may also have documentation somewhere.
