After receiving some great help in another thread, I have successfully got my Fibaro FGD211 dimmer working. Next step is to get it configured so that the S2 key controls some other lights in the same room.
The other lights are connected to a Fibaro 1x3Kw relay switch, which has also been configured and is working fine when controlled locally from a switch and remotely via the z-wave controller. Within Homeseer, the relay switch appears as 3 devices: a base/root device and two binary switches. No idea what the second binary switch does (may just be because Fibaro also does a 2x1.5KW variation of the same switch and the same firmware is used), but the first one definitely controls the attached load on the relay.
To my questions:
1. When I open up the Homeseer association screen for the dimmer, I select Group 2 (which is that the S2 switch triggers) but the destination pulldown only lists the relay
base/root device and not the binary switch I want to operate. Do I just associate the base device or am I missing something?
2. On the same pulldown, I can see the option to specify "Homeseer" as the destination of the association. What does that do? is there somewhere in homeseer that can pick up the fact that a button has been pressed to fire off an event etc?
This is the first time I've used associations within Homeseer, so any advice or guidance would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
Julian
